2nd Stay at Old Mill Cottages

Second time staying at Old Mill Cottages...... lovely and clean.....and I'm quite fussy! So credit to the cleaners...... Cottages themselves are lovely and cosy and well equipped...... Great night sleep comfy beds and pillows are amazing! Great location for getting out and about around Devon whilst being peaceful and in a lovely spot.....short stroll to the local pub! Amazing....I'm sure I'll be back again as house hunting in the area!

It was lovely to have you back at Old Mill Cottages! We’ll pass your kind words on to our housekeeping team, and we’re glad the pillows were a hit. Good luck with the house hunt. We’d love to see you for stay number three!

Beautiful little cottage

We only had one night at Rose Cottage however we wished we could have stayed longer. Beautifully furnished and more spacious than we imagined. Great to have 2 bathrooms too - real bonus. Kitchen and lounge areas were perfect. Beds were also really comfortable and we were amazed how quiet it was considering it was attached to other properties. All in all a real gem of a cottage in a really pretty village.

Simply beautiful!

We had a very relaxing break at this beautiful cottage in what was a very soggy weather week. The only thing I would say in slight criticism,is that the heating could have been a little better. I do take blood thinners so feel the cold easily, so maybe just me! A very pretty location and central to everything we wanted for our break. If you visit, I would absolutely recommend the Churh House inn just a stroll away. Fantastic hospitality, food and atmosphere. We will definitely return. Thankyou so very much!

Great place if neighbours would not have a party all night long

We were very happy with the location and comfort of the cottage at arrival. Unfortunately on our second night neighbours held a huge and loud party that went on the whole night. We could not reach the owners to do something about it. Hardlly slept that night and no compensation nor satisfying communication about it from the owners. Very dissapointing as we didn’t expect something like that to happen at all. We expected a quiet place.

Rose cottage Marldon

The cottage has always been perfect for our stay even though my partner is 93years old with mobility issues, deafness and limited sight. Each year it gets a little harder to manoeuvre for him so sadly not sure whether we will be able to return next year which is sad for us both as we love it there. One complaint is the limited parking area for rose cottage as it is so small, however we did manage to get the gardener to cut the hedge back , so that helped. Another problem was the other guests not parking in the proper place but to be fair it was only one guest who was unhelpful, others were more than happy to move over a bit. Space to get my partner out and into a wheelchair was difficult but again we managed. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay, and although small it was cleverly furnished to enable comfort and space inside. A small but lovely sitting area was also great for sitting with my early morning tea. I would certainly recommend the property to others.
