Ask a questionAbout
We are a family of 4 who enjoy the outdoors. With relatives living in Modbury, we have enjoyed visits to the South Hams area for many years. The cottage is just 2 hours drive away from our home in Frome, Somerset where Sarah works as a physio and I work as an Engineer. We love going to the cottage ourselves and love the Colmer Estate and the beautiful South Hams area of Devon - we hope you will love it as well.
purchased this Cottage in 2015
Why chose North Huish
We weren't even looking to buy a holiday home in April 2015, when we saw the details for Gate House West in an estate agents window, whist waiting for pasties from the adjacent deli to be warmed up. We were intrigued, viewed the property, fell in love with the potential of what we saw, and just three months later were the new owners. Why did we fall in love with it? Well, as you can see from the pictures, it was impossible for a family that loves swimming, tennis and peace and tranquillity not to! By April 2016 we had completed a major refurbishment and redecoration of the cottage. We are really pleased with the result and we are sure that you will be too!
What makes this Cottage unique
Excellent on site communal facilities shared by just a handful of guests. The pools and tennis court were the main attractions for us plus the location, making it our ideal bolt hole.
