Great stay in Branscombe

We had a lovely February break here. The cottage was lovely. Clean and well equipped. The log burner ensured the front room was cosy. Branscombe is well placed for coastal walks and day trips. Lovely, friendly owners too who were happy to be contacted.

Great location for the coastal path

We had a fabulous week in Branscombe, thank you Richard. We found this cottage to be a great base for our walks and trips around the area. It is a very short walk to a footpath that joins the coastal path. We saw deer and pheasants in the field opposite and could hear lambs on the hill behind the cottage in the mornings. The kitchen is sunny, spacious and well equipped. The fireplace has a big double log burner, which we made good use of, as we had some very cold nights and the electric wifi heaters upstairs were not working (with no instructions). There was an issue with the back legs on one of the armchairs, which I have pointed out to Richard as well as no back door key, which would have been useful when returning with wet coats or muddy boots. But forgetting that, we had a fantastic stay at this cottage and we were very sad to leave.

Perfect countryside cottage

Our stay in Branscombe was idyllic... we really felt a sense of authenticity and history in the home, the cottage is tidy and clean, but not plastic. There are many thoughtful touches to ensure you have everything you need. Richard was extremely accommodating from the minute we inquired about this property, and during our stay communication-when we needed was always prompt and insightful. We had a long stay, over a month, and certainly hope to return!

Lovely cottage

We had a great stay in Chapel Row. The cottage was spacious, clean and cosy. Richard was a great host and Branscombe is a beautiful spot. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

Great place to stay

Perfect location for walks and relaxation. Good pubs and local transport. Cottage ideal for what we wanted, just be careful with the stairs. Would recommend to friends and family.

About the host

Hosted by Richard Munday

We're a family of five with teenage children.

We've loved this area of Devon for many years and our children have loved the beaches, ice creams and fossil hunting in the area over many happy holidays. As they've grown up; paddle boarding and kayaking is our latest craze. We love the quiet, rural escape of the cottage and hope others families will enjoy holidaying in Chapel Row.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Chapel Row's character and location and love the pretty little garden.

What makes this property unique

Two great pubs within walking distance and the uniqueness of being in a National Trust village with old traditions that can still be seen today (e.g. the forgery, the mill, the tearooms) and the picturesque walks to the beach.
