We are in quite a rural position so its very peaceful and the perfect place to chill but only 1 1/ 2 miles away from beautiful Branscombe with two very nice pubs and 3 miles from the bustling town of Sidmouth with numerous cosy cafes, cute shops and lovely restaurants mostly all dog friendly. Close to the picturesque Regency seaside town of Sidmouth, on the World Heritage Jurassic Coastline, there are a variety of beaches, independent shops, and access to the South West Coastal footpath. We are close to Beer, Branscombe, Seaton and only 12 miles from Lyme Regis and Budeleigh Salterton and Exmouth in the opposite direction We are a 5 minute walk to the Donkey sanctuary which also has a very nice restaurant and lots of activities. Local amenities and activities include golf, fishing, paddle boarding,horse riding, kayaking, tennis and riverside walks. The charming nearby fishing villages of Beer, Branscombe and Budleigh Salterton are all worth visiting. For children, great days out can be had at Crealy Adventure Park, Bicton Botanical Gardens, the Donkey Sanctuary, fossil hunting at Lyme Regis, Seaton Tramway and Seaton Jurassic adventure, Wildwoods, River Axe country park, Pecorama. Exmouth has a nice Cruise ships with bird watching , jurassic coast and themed sails for halloween and christmas as an example. Local nature reserves including the Seaton Marshes and Budleigh Salterton for birdwatching are within close proximity. Slightly further afield is the historic town of Topsham on the River Exe and the city of Exeter with its imposing cathedral. Dartmoor National Park, with its rugged natural beauty is approximately an hour’s drive away.

My son and I were performing at the festival and it was a short drive into Sidmouth and a perfect oasis to recuperate after a day dancing. Some fabulous local walks and great pubs serving great food and ale. We will be hoping to return sometime in the future. ##### Tony D. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Steve F. 25 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### A lovely break The property was clean, had everything you needed and had plenty of space. Weston Mouth beach is lovely and very quiet and peaceful, it’s a really steep climb back up but it’s worth it for the peaceful beach. The Donkey Sanctuary is lovely and has lots of lovely walks too. Lots to do in the area without having to drive too far. Garry and Jacqui were great at communicating and very friendly. We had a lovely break and feel relaxed and refreshed ##### Steve F. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cheryl S. 5 May 2019 #### Fabulous homely and bright. Great location with lots to do in the area. We had a lovely stay in this lodge. It had such a lovely homely feel with all the owners personal touches and beautiful bright skylight. It is one of the best holiday homes we have stayed at with everything you could possibly need to make our stay comfortable. The Jacqui sent us a fantastic information pack to help us organise our holiday and even more great info in the lodge on everything you would possibly need know about the area and lodge to make our stay brilliant. Our dogs loved the Grassy large area to run around and chill. Very private plot with great aspect. We would love to come back. Thanks for letting us stay in your beautiful holiday home and making so perfect with all the hard work you have put in with the info and special touch’s we really appreciate Thanks Cheryl and Angelo x ##### Cheryl S. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2019 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia R. 5 Jul 2016 #### Extremely clean and tidy cottage, Had a fantastic time spent at the cottage, it's set in a good location for local walks from the cottage and walks further afar. There are plenty of maps and information on walks available that were very useful. The condition of the property was excellent, it was very well equipped with lots of high quality items. The only very small negative we found was that too much sunlight came into the main bedroom too early in the morning, we thought that black out blinds would have solved the issue and allowed us to sleep a little longer. Other than that we had a fantastic time and would definitely recommend the property to friends and relatives and would definitely come back ourselves. Kind regards P. Rowbotham ##### Patricia R.

Very thoughtful touches awaited us on our arrival - flowers, wine, chocolates. Jacqui was great at answering any questions I had and went out of her way to ensure my Mum and I had a lovely stay. It's the perfect place to stay to explore Devon and Dorset. We loved it. Thank you Jacqui. ##### Carole T. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Claire L. 28 Oct 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Just great.

Beautiful lounge and kitchen, lovely bathroom and spotless throughout. Wholly recommended. ##### Claire L.

Peaceful, clean, literally home from home. Owners paid attention to every detail, including dog feeding and water bowl. There were full instructions for anything mechanical in the property, the beds and bedding were top notch and decor was cleverly thought out too. It's 5 minutes to the Donkey Sanctuary (what a treat), it's impossible to stay in the property and not visit. A car is a must to visit all the places and eateries the Owners have recommended, the list is comprehensive suggesting places for every budget. All in all any visitor won't be disappointed! ##### Christine S. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### HELEN G. 8 Apr 2019 #### Perfect holiday home that ticked all the boxes. This holiday home had so many added little touches that made it feel like home from home. It has really been thought about with the little things like candles in the bathroom to dog shampoo, torches and a long line. The place was modern and clean and I could of happily moved in! You couldn't ask for more with the location. We didn't need the car at all and wandered from village to village via the coastal path which gave us beautiful beaches and stunning views. Jacqui was the perfect host who I felt I could contact with any query that I had. We will be coming back. ##### HELEN G. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Sandra C. 3 Feb 2019 #### Great location. Very quiet location, great accommodation, extremely well equipped even for doggies.

Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elaine H. 8 May 2018 #### This is a first class property which caters for your every need in a superb location From start to finish this was an excellent experience, the owners are good at all stages with communication and information, we lacked for nothing. The cottage really is home from home the decor and furnishings are well thought out and good quality with plenty of finishing touches along with every piece of crockery, pan, utensil or glass you will ever need, what a pleasure. The patio gets the sun from sunrise to sunset so coffee in the morning at 7am and sundowners much later alongside your bbq. The surrounding countryside is outstanding but not for the faint hearted, be warned, if you don’t like walking up and down steep hills then take the car but you will miss out on beauties such as the Weston Gap, only accessible on foot, which would be a shame as it is a stunning beach. Beer village is also a must, we got there at 9am on the bank holiday Monday and it was already awake but plenty of parking still to be had. The cafes and shops cater for most needs and if you need cash the post office does withdrawals via a debit card machine. Branscombe Beach is walkable from the cottage about 7 mile round trip, lovely setting, plenty of benches and a good cafe with food, ice cream, cold drinks and beers. If you want to take a bus you need to plan well as they are few and far between. We cycled to Sidmouth down a lot of incredibly steep hills and returned via The Byes cycle path to Sidford and then walked most of the hill up the B3052. So lots of exercise to be had and we found the whole experience incredibly enjoyable and entertaining. For shopping Waitrose is good and for that forgotten bottle of wine or water the Spar in Sidford is a slightly closer option. We would definitely go again. ##### Elaine H.

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Woche hier verbracht mit Ausflügen nach St.Agnes, Brighton und Sidmouth. Da das Wetter warm und Sonnig war konnten wir die schöne Terrasse mit dem Grill benutzen. Es ist alles was man benötigt im Haus vorhanden. Wir können dieses Haus sehr empfehlen und werden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen. ##### Stephan S.

Wir haben hier 4 Tage und Nächte verbracht, es war leider nicht so schönes Wetter aber da dieses Cottage so gemütlich war, hat es nicht so viel ausgemacht !! Gerne hätten wir auch die Terasse mehr nutzen können, auch dort kann man es sich richtig gemütlich machen !! Die Kommunikation mit den Vermietern verlief einwandfrei und komplikationslos mit tollen Tipps für Wanderungen u.a. !! Auch Hunde sind herzlich Willkommen hier :-) sehr empfehlenswert, wenn man es gerne etwas abgeschieden mag !! ##### Ute B.

Jacqui and Garry provided us with lots of helpful information on all aspects of our stay; activities, walks, places to eat, etc., they also left a welcome pack which included a bottle of wine. The bungalow is located next to the Donkey Sanctuary and we found it to be a good central spot to get to the places in we wanted to visit. We also appreciated the text Jacqui sent to check we had everything we needed. We had a wonderful, relaxing holiday and would highly recommend this great accommodation. ##### Jackie A.

Spiele für Kinder & Erw., DVD´s, Bücher, Freßnäpfe für Hunde ..... Wifi war absolut ok. Der Kontakt zu den Vermietern ging über email und war gut. Wir bekamen hin und wieder Hinweise z.B. bei schönem Wetter, wo die Liegestühle zu finden sind und konnten auch Nachfragen, wenn etwas unklar war. Wir haben uns viel auf der Terrasse aufgehalten und den herumhüpfenden Hasen zugeschaut. Ganz in der Nähe geht ein herrlicher Weg - bei den Eseln vorbei (Donkey Sanctuary) - hinunter zum Steinstrand (auch für Hunde). Der Weg ist schon eine Freude. Für Naturliebhaber wunderbar. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten gibt es in Sidmouth (liebevolles Örtchen mit ebenso schönen Bademöglichkeiten) - direkt an der Landstraße (Waitrose). ##### susanne k.

We ran down and back up each morning before starting the day. The donkey sanctuary is a great place for children of all ages who like animals (my girls are 13 and 15) and there is a wonderful maze which we spent quite a lot of time getting lost in. A small drive to Sidmouth for days on the beach and paddle boarding etc. The park on which Kokopelli is located is quiet and we had nice day in the surrounding grass area playing games. Inside it is well laid out, nicely decorated and perfect for a family or couple with good quality utensils for self catering and plenty of board games to play in the evening. We had a lovely time and will certainly come back. ##### Tim B.

The property itself is part of a small 'holiday village' next to the donkey sanctuary. However, don't let this put you off! We may as well have been on our own their. It was modern and brilliantly presented and the surroundings are toddler and dog friendly (of which we have both). There is plenty to do in the surrounding area and it made a great central location for a lovely family break. We would definitely return. ##### Shane G.

It is ideally situated with many places of interest within easy reach. There are many local walks and lots of good places to eat and drink. The cottage is a home from home, is bright and clean, and equipped with everything you could wish for. The owners Gary and Jacqui were very helpful and were easily contactable if required. The only problem was the intermittent mobile signal and the lack of wifi connection. However, we understand from the owners that this is shortly to be addressed. We would thoroughly recommend the cottage to everyone and hope to return again sometime in the future. ##### Edward & Jackie S.
