About this property

Spectacular views over Slapton Ley and Start Bay

The first floor consists of three double bedrooms with wash-basins, a bathroom with instantaneous shower over the bath and a separate toilet. The two front bedrooms, one double and the other twin bedded, have superb views over the Ley and the sea ideal for the lazy twitcher ('birdwatcher!'). The rear double-bedroom has a pleasant view up over the fields towards Widewell valley. On the ground floor there is a dining room and comfortably furnished lounge with colour television. A large well-equipped kitchen with electric cooker, microwave, fridge-freezer, automatic washing machine and dining table overlooks and has access to the enclosed back garden with clothes line. There is a patio with garden furniture and a barbecue for outdoor entertaining.
 
The cottage has its own water supply automatically pumped from its' well to the storage tank in the roof space. Heating when required is by new Economy 7 night storage heaters. There is exceptionally good 4G coverage. Myrtle Cottage is situated in the grounds of 'Daybreak', the home of the owner so, should there possibly be a problem, help is close at hand. The expression most commonly used by our regular tenants is that "We are not only coming on holiday but coming home."

Home from home with views
Just back from a lovely week in our favourite place . Stayed in various accommodations in the area over the years but Myrtle cottage beats them all . Ideal location , wonderful views , spotlessly clean , very well equipped . The totally enclosed back garden just the job for our little dog . If you’re concerned about the host being next door don’t be . We didn’t see or hear them other than when we had a minor problem that was sorted promptly by Sandra .Myrtle cottage is very reasonably priced compared to others we’ve stayed in in the area but with the same high standards throughout . Lovely light airy rooms ( photos don’t do it justice ) perfect for family getaway . 10/10

The cottage is spacious, clean and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with appliances and utensils. The front of the cottage overlooks Slapton Ley and the beach is a ten minute walk away.
