Photos and Description of this Branscombe holiday cottage 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, sleeps 5

This charming, 'chocolate box', detached holiday cottage is believed to be approaching 500 years old. Naturally, guests are treated to a wealth of period features, such as uneven walls and floors, low ceilings and of course the wonderful fireplace where open fires in a solid fuel stove can be enjoyed. It is furnished in sympathy with its period features and makes a delightful holiday home for visitors seeking charm and character in a seaside village location. The cottage is situated in an idyllic rural spot, tucked away in its own large and pretty garden in the upper settlement of Branscombe village in East Devon. It is just a stone's throw from the Fountain Head Inn, which is renowned for good food. Branscombe beach is about 7 minutes away by car and can also be reached by walking through the woods and along the coastal path. It is a two mile long gently sloping pebble beach.
