Description

Little Blagdon is a welcoming stone-built cottage resting in the rural village of Ashwater, Devon, framed by open countryside and far-reaching views.

With off-road parking for two cars, characterful open beams, and a woodburning stove, this good-quality retreat offers a peaceful base for families and groups looking to unwind in a scenic setting.

Step inside and you’re greeted by a sense of heritage and warmth, where traditional features blend seamlessly with thoughtful touches throughout.

The sitting room invites relaxed evenings by the woodburning stove, while underfloor heating in the lounge and dining room brings a gentle warmth underfoot during cooler months.

A separate dining room provides space to gather for long meals and conversation, while the kitchen/diner encourages shared moments over breakfast or dinner, with everything in place for easy self-catering.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms offer flexibility for different group make-ups, including a king-size, a double, and a twin.

The main bathroom makes a striking impression with its freestanding bath and walk-in shower, creating an inviting space to linger after days outdoors.

Outside, the enclosed rear garden opens onto lawn and gravelled areas, ideal for relaxed afternoons, outdoor dining, or letting dogs roam safely while you take in the countryside surroundings.

Ashwater sits close to the Devon–Cornwall border, perfectly placed for exploring both counties.

Head to Holsworthy to browse independent shops and enjoy riverside walks, or venture to Bude for wide sandy beaches, coastal paths, and sea pools that appeal to all ages.

Launceston offers historic charm with its Norman castle, local eateries, and scenic walking routes.

Whether you’re drawn to coast or countryside, Little Blagdon provides a characterful and well-located base for a memorable rural escape.

Fabulous property.

Very high quality. Tastefully decorated and very well equipped. I booked very last minute and was pleasantly surprised to see a welcome treat of scones, jam and cream and fresh flowers on our arrival! Very lovely and will definitely recommend to others! Wished our stay was for longer as we were very settled there!

Had an absolutely wonderful week staying in Little Blagdon!

It's a beautiful cottage surrounded by fields in a very peaceful part of Devon. Cottage has literally everything you would need, underfloor heating keeps it warm and cozy, kitchen is spacious and very well equipped, beds are super soft and comfortable, bathroom is great with an incredible free standing bath! There's lots of space but it maintains it's wonderful historical cottage feel and the coal fire adds to that magic in the evenings. I can't thank Joan and Tim enough for making it such a wonderful experience, would recommend them and Little Blagdon in a heartbeat. Thank you!

A cosy comfortable cottage in a quiet but accessible location well placed to visit both the south Devon and north Cornwall coasts and countryside.

It is well equipped for self catering. The welcome pack included a cream tea and various teas and coffees. Surprisingly for a cottage the bedrooms were spacious with a nice large bathroom too. The hosts, whilst discreet, went out of the way to be most helpful - 10/10 to Joan and Tim. We enjoyed a lovely break in a beautiful part of our country.j
