About the host
Hosted by Helen Holmes
We bought the cottage in November 2017. It had been our dream for many years to be able to own a property in South Devon. As soon as we viewed Hope Cottage and the gorgeous country estate we fell in love with it.
Why they chose this property
We hope you love our cottage as much as we do. We love the facilities on the Estate, walking our dogs in the fields and woods and the children love the pools. It's a very safe environment. My husband loves nothing better than a long walk on the moors or along the cliff paths where he won;t see a soul, whereas I love to go to the nearby towns where I can wander around the independent shops, enjoy a cappuccino and people watch. The children would say their favourite thing is the local beaches and bringing fish and chips back with us.
What makes this property unique
The heated outdoor pool is beautiful (open end of May until September) and the indoor pool is open all year so perfect if it's raining! The fishing lake is packed with carp and other fish, and is a great place to have a picnic. Our younger son is the first down to the tennis court whereas our older son heads to the gym. For younger children, the play area in the walled garden is lovely, and there's plenty of space here to kick a ball around.
