Country cottage on a working farm/ stables. Had a fantastic stay as the cold weather drew in. Exhilarating walks around the grounds and close the the sea and Donkey Sactuary.

In the depth of wonderful countryside with magnificent views yet only a few minutes from either Honiton or the Dorset/Devon coast this cottage is a joy. Our grandchildren loved the horses and being around the activities of the riding school.

We loved Stable Cottage and would like to go again. There were three of us, including a 17 year old, and we had a great week. The weather was very kind, and the stunning countryside was shown off to best advantage. It felt a real privilege to be able to stay in such a beautiful part of the world. As its name implies, Stable Cottage is situated right in the centre of the riding school so if you like horses you can see them at very close quarters. We had a most interesting time watching the farrier at work, and talking to him on his weekly visit to the riding school. The riding lessons we had were really encouraging and safe for us as inexperienced riders and included a hack in the nearby fields and lanes. The family who own the property live next door and were very friendly, and helped with hints about good local walks, also places to visit in the area. The overall location of the cottage was great for exploring East Devon – we could get to lots of places that were within 30 to 40 minutes' drive. We were thankful that we had borrowed a car that could cope with the very steep hills! We hope to visit Devenish Pitt again soon!

too many spiders but apart from that it was ok ...lovely and peaceful.
