About this cottage rental

Jacketts is an old cob farmhouse in a fantastic location on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Otterton that lies between Sidmouth and Budleigh Salterton. Now divided into two cottages Jacketts 2 makes a deceptively spacious and well appointed home away from home. It has a delightful Conservatory, ideal for those lazy breakfasts while the combined sitting/dinning has an Inglenook with modern gas log burner to warm any chilly nights. There is a brand new kitchen with an induction cooktop & electric oven. The freezer is a good size so you can stock up with locally delivered “Cook” meals if you want a rest from cooking. Clearing up is made easy with the dishwasher. Upstairs the double bedroom has a lovely antique solid oak bed originally from Fineshade Abby and a modern semi ensuite shower room. The twin bedroom has its own charm with more antique furniture. For a candle lit bath or the practicality of bathing the children the bonus of a downstairs bathroom gives that added flexibility. The cottage is ideally situated for exploring the East Devon coast with fantastic local walks along the cliffs and nearby river while for the children there is everything from sandy beaches to adventure parks. Cyclists & birdwatchers will love the countryside surrounding this delightful Cottage. This is picture postcard country and the ideal holiday home! Eating out: The nearest place to eat out is just a few hundred yards away at Otterton Mill. This a working mill where you can see the grain being milled before buying the freshly baked bread or other local delights. The mill has an excellent licenced restaurant for lunch or afternoon tea, as well as a gallery and gift shop where the hidden talent of some of our local artists can be seen. The local pub is also very good but in the next village of East Budleigh there are two excellent pubs for food. In nearby Sidmouth there are a variety of modern wine bars, great restaurants and several old traditional pubs to choose from. Tearooms for the essential 'Devon cream tea' are too numerous to mention and in Budleigh Salterton you can find some of the best Ice cream in Devon.

Although most of the cottage is dated it is very clean and well presented. It's very quirky but has loads of space downstairs including a large bathroom, living room, conservatory room and brand new and excellent kitchen - (my partner loved your choice of tiles). The living room is old fashioned but it's very clean and comfortable. Upstairs is also old fashioned but the beds are very comfortable and the decent sized bathroom is well equipped. The shower could be more powerful but it works perfectly. The courtyard is small and enclosed so was a perfect place for our dog to be without fear of escape. Overall the properly is clean, warm, well presented and comfortable. We think it would be amazing with a full update but we would definitely come back

An interesting, old style property that is well located for the Devon coast and for visiting Exeter. The booking and checking in processes both went smoothly. We would go back.
