"Mike & Jane, the property owners, gave us a very warm welcome."
During our stay they were always very friendly & helpful.
Lovely quiet location. Log burner was very much appreciated during our stay in late November. The bathroom and walk-in shower were also lovely. Water was very soft great to drink, fed from their natural spring.
There are many walks available nearby.
Will return again.

"Larger than we expected."
Everything is of high quality and immaculately kept. The only possible criticism would be that the sofa isn’t terribly comfortable.
The extremely high rating is fully deserved and we would not hesitate to return. Access down the long and narrow country lane could be challenging for a nervous driver.

"A really lovely cottage totally away from it all."
Well equipped for our stay. Huge comfy bed. We enjoyed sitting on the terrace with a cup of tea in the morning.
Very friendly owners, their dog and chickens.
Long suggestion of places to visit and places to eat and also supplied us with a list of taxis to use.
Would certainly return when we have more time to go off and explore.

"The Dairy is a delightful holiday base."
We received a warm welcome from Jane and Mike and their knowledge of the area contributed greatly to our enjoyment of our stay in Devon. This is a wonderful part of the country for glorious walks along the stunning coastline and surrounding countryside. Most of the walks started from the property. It was lovely to sit outside The Dairy after a long day's hike. Our only criticism was that the sofa was rather uncomfortable.

"We were quite late arriving but Jane and Mike were immediately on hand to welcome us and the cottage is compact but very well furnished."
The bed was one of the most comfortable we have experienced in the many cottages we have stayed in. The location is idyllic with open views, woodland with lots of squirrels and birdlife, and no traffic noise or light pollution to spoil the peace. The access lane is long and narrow but only serves a handful of scattered properties so we didn't meet other vehicles at all. We will look forward to going back to The Dairy in the future.

The cottage offers a lovely peaceful and relaxing stay and is fully equipped for all your needs. Lovely walks to local beaches (south sands being our favourite) where you can then get the ferry into salcombe which is a stunning area to visit. Loved our stay and hope to return again in the future.

"A fabulous annexed cottage in the most peaceful rural location nestled between Malborough and Salcombe."
The property was immaculate and decorated and furnished to a very high standard. It has everything you need. I was there at the end of November and it was wonderfully warm and cosy. The owners are very friendly and ensured everything was OK. Will definitely be heading back next year.

"We have just had a wonderful week at The Diary which is situated at the end of a No Through Road in a quiet beautiful valley."
On arrival we had a very warm welcome from Jane, Dora the friendly dog and three chickens. The Dairy is a lovely, cosy retreat ideally situated for exploring the South Hams. Thank you again Mike and Jane for being such excellent hosts. We hope to be back in the future to enjoy more of the magic of the local area. Many thanks. Nora & Nigel

"Our hosts could not have been more obliging."
Very comfortable and clean throughout. If we would have needed anything Jane and Mike would have done their best to help. Fortunately we managed and enjoyed discovering the walks to the beach. We were blessed with wonderful weather and the majority of our meals were eaten outside. The Dairy is set in surrounding farmland and very peaceful. We enjoyed the chickens checking us out and Dora, the very friendly dog! Owls hooting at night was lovely to listen to while relaxing in the enormous bed. Thank you Jane and Mike. It was good to meet you and we will definitely put you at the top of our list if we return to South Devon next year.

The location is really scenic and no light pollution, ideal for stargazers. The owners Mike and Jane are really kind and helpful, after a couple of days it seems as if you have known them for ever. Good beaches really close by we went to a different beach every day.for people who like walking, plenty to explore. We will definitely be back next year health permitting.

"Excellent quality of accommodation."
Mike and Jane were terrific hosts, wry hospitable and helpful.
Wi-Fi was a bit iffy at times but when you’re that far into the countryside it’s daft to expect too much.
Will certainly consider a return in the future.

"We had a wonderful week at The Dairy."
Jane & Mike were always on hand if we had any queries, & Dora, their dog, was a delight if you're a dog lover. The location is idyllic, & if you just wanted a relaxing break, you could enjoy the surroundings on offer without any need to travel further afield. Having said that there is so much to offer within a few miles of The Dairy. We will definitely be booking again.

"The Dairy was a fantastic cottage, which was warm, cosy, comfortable and immaculate."
We stayed for 4 nights & we were impressed with everything, the kitchen had everything you need, the log fire was laid & ready, there was a jug of milk in the fridge, which was a really sweet welcoming touch.
The bed is huge and so comfortable, & the shower room was great too!
We were looking for peace & quiet, & it certainly delivered on that front, it is such a lovely area, & the owners were so welcoming and informative, giving us recommendations for beautiful walks, as well as local restaurants, talking of which, they have their own fantastic cafe in Salcombe itself, which is also delightful and worth a visit.
The only downside with the property was having to leave after our stay……
We would highly recommend this cottage, & we are currently trying to schedule in another visit later in the year!
