Description
Primrose Cottage a pretty thatched, detached Grade II listed cottage in the heart of the Dartmoor village of Drewsteignton, beside the lovely churchyard.
With bags of charm and traditional features including low ceilings and doorways and white walls, this is a charming base for families or couples to enjoy the Devon countryside.
The hall leads you through to the inviting sitting room with its beams and open fire.
From here, you have the option of taking a few steps down to a quiet room.
The kitchen has a modern electric AGA, with hot plate and induction hob as well as the dining area.
Steep stairs head up to the two bedrooms, the double a romantic double-aspect room with lofty ceiling, plus a bathroom.
Your little enclosed garden at the front with table and chairs on the patio is the perfect place to watch sleepy village life go by and enjoy morning coffee with the papers.
The village is surrounded by great footpaths for walking, mostly leading into the wooded River Teign valley where you may spot deer, salmon leaping and other wildlife.
The village itself offers a traditional pub and there is another pub nearby at Fingle Bridge.
The local church has a pop-up shop which is open 8am to 8pm, selling non-perishable items and essentials.
The open expanses of Dartmoor invite you to explore on foot or by car or bike, or head to Exeter with its city amenities including theatres and restaurants.
Perfectly located for taking in spectacular countryside, Primrose Cottage is a homely and welcoming base.

What guests are saying
A beautiful cottage in a lovely area and situated well to visit both the south coast and west coast.
Clean, tidy and well equipped with a lovely open fire and plenty of logs to get started. The bed was amazing and the sheets, duvet and pillows were all of excellent quality and we slept really well. Property was cozy and warm and we appreciated the yummy cake upon arrival!
If you’re looking for an authentic cottage in an unspoilt village, this is it.
Large kitchen and lounge, open fire if needed and a huge, pretty bedroom with a very comfortable bed. Parking is on the road but we found we could squeeze the car close to the gate so it wasn’t a problem. Stairs are steep, as advertised, and there are steps up to the bathroom and one up into the bedroom. A torch is provided should you need it during the night. Surrounding lanes are typically narrow but a trip (or several) down to Fingle Bridge with its beautiful riverside walks and fabulous pub is well worth it. This was a very welcome, relaxing break and comes highly recommended.
We had a fabulous week at Primrose Cottage.
It was a real 'home from home'. To find milk in the fridge, a tray set for tea and a delicious lemon drizzle cake was delightful and so welcoming. Great location, high quality fixtures and fittings. If we find another holiday cottage that's as comprehensively and thoughtfully equipped, we will consider ourselves fortunate indeed. Thank you.
