"Charming little cottage and very comfy!"
Really had a fun week here with lots of beautiful coastal walks nearby, as long as you like hills! The village shop was open when we stayed (early October), but would recommend that you bring all your food with you, as it is well out of the way, which is what we wanted.

"A lovely cottage in a friendly village and a great location."
The kitchen is well-equipped, and we valued the bottle of wine waiting for us as a welcome.
Its not ideal for tall people, with one low doorway, an ordinary double and very low easy chairs. But the internet is good, and there's a good read garden where you eat out at a bench and watch the cows opposite grazing.

"Lovely cosy cottage with all the amenities that we could need."
Beautiful garden!
We mislaid the key safe number on our departure and sent an e-mail to Sykes asking for it and as yet, (3 days later) we are still awaiting a reply! Luckily we found it just as we were leaving which avoided putting the keys through the letterbox.
We are glad to hear you enjoyed the cottage and garden. Unfortunately we never received an email. We aim to respond in a timely manner where possible. We do always advise to call in these instances. Property Owner

"Lovely cottage and very well equipped."
Comfortable inside, with a beautiful enclosed garden outside. It has steep stairs so not ideal for anyone with mobility problems but it is a very old cottage and they are part of its charm. Well situated close to the village centre, but quiet.

"I stayed at Vine Cottage for a fortnight and it was a real home from home."
It was quiet, cosy and comfortable and the garden was a lovely place to relax on sunny days.
East Prawle is in a great location for walking. The coast path is only a mile away, and there’s some great dog friendly beaches to explore within walking distance. I only really needed to use the car to go to the farm shop for supplies. Be warned though - wherever you walk to there is a very big hill to climb up to get back to the village!
There’s a great little cafe in the village for coffees and ice creams and the village shop has the essentials if you run out of something.
I would take groceries with you or get a delivery soon after you arrive as the nearest supermarket is in Kingsbridge which isn’t far but takes a while on single track lanes.
I loved the cottage and the location and would definitely go back.

"Lovely cottage, very well equipped and well placed for coastal walks."
A short drive to foot ferry for Salcombe, 20 mins drive to Kingsbridge, 40 mins Salcombe. We appreciated the well fenced garden for our dog and the off road parking too. In summer you could abandon the car and walk 45 mins to an hour to a selection of lovely beaches for the day too.

"Beautiful cottage, very tidy and well presented in the heart of East Prawle and a short walk to the local amenities and spectacular walks."
Nice sized garden to sit out in and benefits from own parking bay. Arrival presented no difficulties and very easy to settle in. Recommended.

"The cottage was lovely and the facilities provided in it were probably the best we have ever experienced."
It was lovely and quiet and out of the way.
It is an ideal place as a base for coast walkers. As with everywhere at the moment, the COVID restrictions meant limited access to the pub and village store, but there is nothing anyone can do about that at the moment.
The one drawback for us (70 years of age) was the drive down the narrow roads/lanes from the nearest town of Kingsbridge, and negotiating with other vehicles, some of which drove far too fast for the conditions, but I suppose the locals know the route. Not good for someone who is slower behind the wheel of a car.
We had to leave early on account of my health (I am a recovering cancer patient), which was a pity.

"The cottage was very well stocked and had all the appliances and equipment needed."
It was warm and cosy and light and airy. The garden is gorgeous and the setting is excellent for the South West Coast path and the South Hams area generally. We love East Prawle and this is a great place to stay for 2 or 3 people. Thank you

"Vine Cottage, East Prawle is utterly delightful in every way."
In the age of continuous feedback and requests for such I'm seemingly bombarded with organisations asking for me to rate them, their products and services. In this case I'm happy to tell you that this cottage exceeded my expectations, no small accomplishment. Perhaps because the owners 'live' in the property on occasion, possibly as they are extremely thoughtful, in all aspects you find what you need. For example, all of the knives are sharp, the sofa and chairs can be sat on comfortably, the garden can be enjoyably sat in, the great pub is just 2 minutes walk away but not so near noise is an issue, a fabulous walk (Prawle Point) is on your doorstep and does not require you to get into your car. My wife and I, with our dog, had the most wonderful holiday, helped in no small part by fabulous late summer weather, in South Devon. A beautiful part of the world, and a lovely cottage. Lovely.

"Lovely cottage in a beautiful location in a wonderful little village over looking the sea."
The cottage is extremely well equipped with everything you need including maps, information about the area, games,books, videos and even folding chairs for you to take out with you so you can sit in comfort with your picnics. Back garden is secure for pets and is a lovely place to sit in the evening.
