The vacation rental
Our six stone cottages nestle in the valley at the end of a private lane. They have been sympathetically renovated from farm buildings and are individually decorated and furnished. There are thick stone walls, exposed beams and recessed windows, feature fireplaces, slate, wood or ceramic flooring, providing a homely setting all year round.
Outside, the cottages have individual private gardens with lawns, hedges and stone walls, flower and shrub borders, hanging baskets and herb pots, gravel paths and patios, garden furniture, and lovely views of the surrounding valley.
All the cottages have colour TVs, DVD players, sofas, coffee tables, magazines, books and games, central heating, or night storage heating with supplementary heating. |

The surrounding area
Stunning beaches, great coastal walks, historic Slapton village, and the seaside towns of Salcombe and Dartmouth are all within easy reach.
Guests can leave the car behind and take the 40-minute green lane walk to historic Slapton village, with its two excellent dog-friendly pubs, and Slapton Ley Nature Reserve where there is birdwatching and nature safaris; and just 3 miles from here the South West Coast Path takes in the stunning coastal scenery of Start Bay from Dartmouth to Start Point.
Unspoilt and with a gentle year-round climate, South Devon has much to offer visitors.
Our conservation valley here at Dittiscombe is an environmental haven for plants, flowers and wildlife and enjoy our nature trail with ponds, woods and meadows.
