Location

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Devlins Cottage. Wood fires in the evening, comfortable bed and a sunny outside area for eating. Great sea views and walks. Don’t miss the seals!

Picturesque escape!

An incredible charming cottage with views to the ocean. A short walk to the beach and the cafe, close to the seal colony and petrified forest - you really can't get much more idyllic!

Devlins Cottage is a place for couples wishing to escape the big city

A charming, but definitely not for everyone, cottage. No TV no problem. Only heating is a wood fire heater. Limited kitchen facilities. But it is in a great location with spectacular view of nearby bay. Lots of wonderful walks along the coastline.

Beautiful but sadly neglected

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cottage is beautifully located. It is quaint and historic. As far as amenities go, it has everything you need but it was dirty. Fire place still had ashes, dusty, dirty ring in bath, shower water didn't drain, towels were stained. Sent the agent a nice email to let them know and didn't even receive a response, hence my review.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovely stay. Just rat droppings on bbq and in house and some cleaning to attend to. More firewood would also be helpful.
