A pretty and tranquil spot

We enjoyed a restful stay in the picturesque village of Otterton close to coastal and river walks. The cottage was charming and well equipped, and the beds extremely comfortable. The location was close to beautiful beaches, and livelier locations were within a short driving distance should you chose to seek them out.

Good location in village with community

Well kitted out “upside down” barn conversion. Main bedroom super king size bed was very comfortable. We had some issues at the start which were very quickly remedied by the owner who was unaware. Excellent communications from the owner. Beavers were a great attraction a short walk from the property. The community shop was good, run by volunteers. The Old Mill a short walk away was also worse a visit, excellent cream teas.

The Shippen, Otterton

This is a beautiful cottage in the lovely little village of Otterton. The kitchen was very well equipped and the owners have obviously thought of everything you might need, which left us wanting for nothing. They were also easily contactable. The locals were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed some beautiful walks along the River Otter and enjoyed some fantastic food in the local pub and further afield. Would definitely recommend Neil’s Fish restaurant in Sidmouth, the Lobster and Sea Bass were particularly good. The freshly baked bread from the Mill was a must! A fantastic week, helped by great weather!

Comfortable family home with good parking

Beautiful extremely well maintained property in a perfect position for exploring the Jurassic coast and Dartmoor. We really felt at home and would highly recommend staying here in the peaceful village of Otterton. Be warned that there is an excellent artisan bakery very close to the house which doesn't help the waistline. The local pub serves good food. We would definitely return for another stay.

A real home from home 🏡

From communications before we even arrived at The Shippen, I had a feeling we were going to have the best time - and I was right! The house is just lovely with every convenience. Amazingly comfy beds & space for all us 6 adults to enjoy the house and garden. The village is pretty & both the mill & community shops stock all essentials; the scones at the mill are delicious! We enjoyed the river walk to/from Budleigh Salterton (& the sweet shop there!). Can highly recommend The Clock House at Chideock- lovely Sunday lunch & very reasonably priced. We were sad to leave but hope we can return another day to continue exploring this beautiful house & location. Thank you Belinda & Ken for sharing your lovely house with us!

Couldn't be faulted.

A wonderfull property that is exceptional in every way.Located in a quiet cup de sac with several other similar properties. The property is fully equipped and is absolute spotless. Probable the best property we have ever stayed in. A credit to the owners and a credit to whoever services it. Village has a coffee shop with freshly baked bread and does a good breakfast,also a very good pub,both within walking distance. I am about to book it again for next year.

A memorable family holiday at The Shippen

We enjoyed a wonderful family holiday at The Shippen. The house is extremely well equipped , attractive decor and furnishings,comfortable beds and quality bed linen with a plentiful supply of towels. Otterton is an excellent setting to enjoy the Devon countryside and in particular the many beautiful coastal walks.

Well situated for many Devon attractions. A quietly situated property withl friendly neighbours.

The property was very clean and tidy. It was exactly the country style we were expecting. The local pub provided good meals with a varied menu. Walking was excellent around the local area. The property was well situated for the river walk, and bakery. Walking to Budleigh Salterton was easy and only about two and a half miles along the river. Otters were spotted during our stay. We enjoyed the centrality of the cottage allowing us to visit places within a few miles.

A beautiful barn conversion with large garden and rural outlook.

Absolutely gorgeous place to stay. Beautifully furnished, well-equipped and comfortable. Upside down house to enjoy the views from the first floor. Delightful courtyard setting with otter fountain and river, trees and open fields at the bottom of the garden. Nice welcome and spotlessly clean. We were very happy with the property and the location for a quiet countryside and seaside based holiday with walks on the doorstep and easy access to the lovely villages of East Devon.

Peaceful location, good facilities & parking.

Overall a lovely, character property with a large garden (which needs some TLC) leading down to the river, in a good location for walking, cycling or exploring the South Devon coastline. At the end of my holiday I was disappointed that I didn't receive my security deposit refund within the stated 2 weeks. I contacted the owner when 4 weeks had passed & eventually after several email exchanges, I was refunded after 5 weeks. Once this problem is sorted out I wouldn't hesitate in recommending the property.
Response from VrboOwner on 17 Mar, 2020
We have a new gardener and the garden is looking fabulous! As I told you in several emails I contacted owners direct within the stated two weeks to refund your deposit. As I told you in our unusually extensive series of emails, that had you sent me your bank details as I requested promptly I could have taken care of it sooner. You denied receiving my email request for your bank details, when you finally sent them to me you received your refund immediately.

Fantastic accommodation, Peaceful area, centrally located to access Devon's coastline treasures

Spacious property on three levels, great village location. Easy access by foot & car to local attractions. Trouble free booking service, great communication with owner & flexibility to add extra night stay. Thanks Belinda 😀 Would recommend to friends as a great family stay option, mum & dad plus kids even + friends. Easily caters for grown up families plenty of individual space & great spacious garden/patio for bbq's. Walking along the river to budleigh salterton was a great day, local Mill attraction great to have on the door step for temping afternoon tea's. Lazy breakfast's as well. Sidmouth, Seaton, Beer, great locations to visit. Donkey sanctuary a free day out just up the road 20 mins. Clean, spacious, a well loved & looked after property you feel at home in, highly recommended
