“A lovely, clean and comfortable ...”

A lovely, clean and comfortable cottage. There is no washing machine/dryer but it has everything else you will need. Imaginative use has been made of the relatively small space and the living room could be described as cosy while the bedroom upstairs is sufficiently spacious and very comfortable. Everything was spotlessly clean and the little garden collects plenty of sun. There is a very friendly pub that serves good food just a short walk up a (very steep!) hill and the area is well located for exploring the South Devon coast. We had a lovely time here :)

“We absolutely loved staying at Sea ...”

We absolutely loved staying at Sea Glass Cottage. The only problem was that there wasn't a wardrobe available. There was hanging space on one of the walls but didn't look very secure so didn't use it. Apart from that problem we enjoyed our stay very much. It was very clean and nicely laid out. There were some food essentials left for us which was really helpful and a nice touch. The garden was ideal and quite private and often sat there in the evenings. We chose this cottage as we wanted a peaceful holiday, and it was bliss! Such a lovely village and so quiet. We hope to use Sea Glass again.

“We are not small people so would ...”

We are not small people so would have appreciated a shelf in the shower and it would also have been good to have a blind/curtain at the small bedroom window and possibly at the stair window to avoid light falling directly onto the bed at sunrise.

“Loved the cottage and village.”

Loved the cottage and village. Parking was a minor problem but won't stop us returning. It'd be nice if there were some comfortable seats available in the small garden as we loved sitting outside reading in the quiet. The bedside lights flickered but otherwise all was good. It was lovely to have a few provisions on arrival and the dressing gowns were a nice touch. The two local pubs were good and the food at the Castle Inn excellent except it didn't serve in the evening until after 7pm. The Smugglers Arms also had good food, although some food wasn't available until after 6pm.

“Great TV and freeview box - ...”

Great TV and freeview box - although should be aware that the ariel connection cable is very loose in socket - slightest knock would pull the cable out, and lose all signal- simple job to replace socket but could cause future problems if hoovering around the TV Unit during cleaning times..

The cottage was brilliant - cosy and comfortable. Great location for local walks.

“Initially not booked as a holiday ...”

Initially not booked as a holiday but as an escape from our home that was being invaded by contractors who were fitting a new kitchen and staircase. Sea glass cottage was small but very comfortable. The owners had put a lot of thought into refurbishing it. Everything we needed was there. Positioned between Dawlish and Teignmouth, Holcombe is well situated. It enabled us to discover that part of Devon that was new to us. Coupled with perfect weather we couldn’t have asked for better. Many thanks to the owners of Sae Glass and Sykes. Regards, Michael and Christine Jones.

The property

The small hillside coastal village of Holcombe, comprising mainly thatched cottages and overlooking the sea is midway between the seaside towns and sandy beaches of Dawlish and Teignmouth.

In Holcombe is Sea Glass Cottage, a cute Grade II listed, thatched cottage, tucked neatly at the end-of-row with a small enclosed suntrap gravelled garden to the side.

The newly transformed interior with pretty fabrics and local artwork gives this small but perfectly-formed cottage a smart, stylish and welcoming feel.

The living room is bright and cosy with a terracotta tiled floor, flame-effect electric stove and dining area.

There is also a double sofa bed (for alternative sleeping).

The neat kitchen is well equipped with everything you'll need for your holiday.

From the lounge, stairs lead to a double king size bedroom with beams, pretty furnishings and an electric flame-effect fire.

Handy for both coast and countryside, you can visit some of Devon's best beaches and leading attractions such as Living Coasts, Powderham Castle or head inland to rugged Dartmoor National Park, all within a short drive.

A little gem, Sea Glass Cottage is a romantic escape for two.

About the location

HOLCOMBE

Dawlish Warren 3 miles; Dawlish 1.5 miles, Teignmouth 1.9 miles.

Holcombe is situated between the seaside resorts of Dawlish and Teignmouth, and is in a designated conservation area with a picturesque village centre lined with pretty thatched cottages, a village shop and traditional pub. Holcombe's history has been associated with smugglers and has been impacted by the growth of the railways - the Bristol to Plymouth main line goes along the coast at Holcombe and is one of the most scenic stretches of the rail network in the country. The beach at Dawlish Warren is a sandy Blue Flag beach backed by sand dunes and small lakes and stretches for miles to reach the Exe Estuary in one direction, and Dawlish town in the other. A safe beach, lifeguarded in summer, provides a perfect place for seaside fun, and has many free, open-air events, children's entertainers and spectacular firework and air displays during the summer season. Nearby there is much to occupy the visitor along the English Riviera coastline, including Paignton Zoo, the Dartmouth Steam Railway, the picturesque fishing harbour of Brixham and the long pier and promenade at Teignmouth. A typically English seaside resort, great for family holidays at any time of year.
