THE OLD POST OFFICE, family friendly, with a garden in Down Thomas

The cottage sleeps five people in three bedrooms, two double and a single with an upstairs shower room and a downstairs bathroom. On the ground floor is an open plan living space with seating area with gas fire, a dining area and a kitchen. Outside is a small seating area at the front with table and chairs and a path to a lawn with barbecue. Close to Plymouth, The Old Post Office is an excellent base for a coast and city break in South Devon.

Region: Devon, with its quiet country lanes, patchwork of lush green fields and sleepy villages is not to be missed. Stately home lovers will be spoiled and why not finish with a scrumptious Devonshire cream tea?

Town: Surrounded by the rugged beauty of Dartmoor, the glorious countryside of the South Hams and the vibrant scenery of the South Devon coast, Plymouth offers the perfect mixture of maritime heritage and natural beauty in a vibrant city environment.

Cosy cottage
Loved the cottage - very welcoming, lovely touches. Plenty of good walking and just one mile to The Staddy for a bus into Plymouth centre. We were sorry to have to leave early due to a family emergency.
