We stayed for a month and did not wish to leave. Our stay was over the November / December period when there was snow on the ground and the wood burner made the whole accommodation feel warm and welcoming. Will definitely return in the summer if the cottage is available. Tony was a brilliant host, pure magic. ##### Greg H.

We enjoyed visiting nearby towns and the tram ride to Seaton. We found driving down the lanes to and from the cottage quite challenging. ##### Julia S.

I cannot say enough good things about our stay at Buttercup Cottage. The cottage itself is beautiful and very cosy. It has been very thoughtfully put together and there are some lovely inclusions which make it a perfect home away from home. Our son thoroughly enjoyed the garden and play items available for use. The property is in a great location for visiting the surrounding area and the hosts are wonderful. We will definitely be booking to stay here again and urge anyone considering booking to do so - you won't regret it! ##### Amanda D.

Clean, tidy and well equipped, the children loved having puzzles to do and the outside play equipment to explore (although this is round the back of the property, not in sight from the cottage so we did need to go round with them.) The owners are lovely and location is great for exploring the south devon activities. We enjoyed the Seaton Tramway, Lyme Regis beach and the Somerset museum. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a nice base to call home for a few days! ##### Emma F.

Equipped with all you need for self catering. The location is ideal for visiting lots of places, and is one of the few I've stayed in where the incessant drone of distant traffic can't be heard. Tony and his wife were very helpful and were on hand if a problem arose. Hope to return at some point, even though the weather wasn't kind and the lane to the cottage a little daunting! ##### GRAHAM C.

We had a lovely week in the Buttercup cottage. Everything was exactly as promised and better. We felt very welcome with the cookies, milk, tea, nescafe and fudge left by our hosts. The house was very clean and welcoming. We enjoyed our stay and the talks with our hosts who shared their beautiful garden with us. We went fossil hunting at the beaches of Lyme Regis and Charmouth. Walking around charming Kilmington and shopping in lovely Honiton. We also went to Exeter by train from Honiton. In short we enjoyed ourselves and would like to return to discover more of beautiful Devon. ##### Carolijn d. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Stella S. 18 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Neat cottage We had a happy time at Buttercup cottage but it was a little small for 3 and then later in the week, 4 adults being more ideally suited to a couple with or without children. Tony was a discreet host and very helpful in letting us stay a couple of hours beyond check out. The cottage was clean and comfortable despite being small but lacked a little in the kitchen in terms of crockery. Pots and pans and cooker were all fine but only two wine glasses! We bought one in a charity shop so there are now 3! The crockery is a bit sparse and mismatched. Bathroom is spacious however with good supply of hot water and efficient towel rail.The roads around the cottage are in a poor state with many potholes but a little further out they are fine if narrow as to be expected in the Devon countryside. Parking is tight. One car is best but two can be squeezed in.Overall - and for the price - the cottage is a happy place to be for a week of reasonable weather and probably ideal for just a couple. ##### Stella S. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vicky M. 9 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Lovely peaceful stay, Tony is very welcoming and helpful.

The little playground on the farm was ideal for our child, and the cottage itself was warm, well-insulated, and very comfortable. We really appreciated the free use of the washing machine and tumble dryer too. The owner was lovely and took great care of us. Highly recommend if you’re looking for somewhere peaceful and remote. ##### Libor S.
