Blackawton,
Originally the gamekeeper's lodge for the Oldstone Estate in the 18th century, Woodside Cottage has now been transformed into an exceptionally comfortable B&B of great character. Standing high on the side of a classically beautiful South Devon valley, it is ideally located down a quiet country lane only 4 miles outside Dartmouth, and it is equally convenient for access to the glorious unspoilt coastline leading from Slapton Sands round Start Point to Salcombe. The cottage is also just half a mile from the ancient but still thriving village of Blackawton (mentioned in the Domesday Book), which has its own post office and two pubs, one of which is a gastropub renowned throughout the Dartmouth area for the outstanding quality of its food. The other is an excellent traditional pub of a type which is becoming increasingly rare in Britain.All our rooms share the same stunning views along the valley towards Start Point lighthouse, and the loom from the light can easily be seen after dark. No effort or expense has been spared in refurbishing and maintaining our our bedrooms to the highest possible standards in keeping with the character of our cottage. The care and attention paid to every detail is matched by our selection of the very best local and organic ingredients for our fine country breakfasts.Please Note: Non-smoking. No pets permitted on the premises. No Children under 18 yrs. Private parking facilities available. Check-in time: from 16:30 and Check-out time: 10:30.
