Photos and Description of this Modbury holiday cottage
Idyllic family cottage with garden in South Hams 'chocolate box' village.

Navy House is a family holiday cottage on the edge of the idyllic South Hams village of Kingston, recently voted Calor 'Best Village in West England 2009'. The cottage retains many traditional features including a large inglenook fireplace in the living room, exposed beams and an open fireplace in the dining room. To the front of the cottage is a large garden offering plenty of space for BBQs and alfresco dining and for those days when you want a break from the beach.

The village is picturesque with thatched roofs and traditional architecture. At the heart of the village is a 16th century pub offering an 'Olde Worlde' atmosphere and traditional ales. The cottage is ideally situated for exploring the south coast and Dartmoor. The nearest beaches are Mothecombe, Wonwell Beach, Westcombe and Bigbury. The area offers a welath of activities from walks, canoeing, fishing, sailing, surfing, golf, shopping in Salcombe, Plymouth, Modbury and Kingsbridge, and great restaurants.

Perfect week in Devon

Review Submitted: September 21, 2010 Date of Stay: September 2010
Navy House is in an ideal location and great house for a getaway holiday. The village is very nice though would benefit from a shop.The Dolphin Inn was quite expensive to eat there too often. Staff were friendly but landlord seemed to favour the locals. The house was very well equipped and the beds were very comfortable.W all enjoyed our staye

Cream Teas and lazy days

Review Submitted: September 7, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2010
Navy House is a real gem of a place,full of character and very charming - like being in an Enid Blyton book.Local area is stunning -went to Hope Cove on a whim and were wowed by the scenery.

Local beach is great at high tide -often deserted which is rare.
Check out Salcombe if you've never been,quaint but with a real holiday buzz and gorgeous food shops.
Local pub as already reviewed is friendly,full of atmosphere and good food.

Points worth knowing on the house- 2 of the bedrooms are linked (good if you have younger kids).Also you have to go thru one of the bedrooms to get to the bathroom,but there is a downstairs loo.All the beds are comfortable and the bedrooms a good size.
The garden is great for kids and we had much excitement one evening when they discovered a "snake".We think a slow worm but worth pre warning if you're a nervous type.

The house details list Tesco Portsmouth as nearest but there is a Morrisons nearer.

Our favourite bolt-hole

Review Submitted: March 3, 2010 Date of Stay: September 2009
My husband and I "found" Navy House 3 years ago and have returned twice a year ever since.
We love the house with the cosy sofas and large inglenook fireplace, it has all you need for a most enjoyable holiday.
The locals are friendly, the walks and scenery in that part of Devon are stunning.
The village pub is close by with good food and very welcoming with a very pleasant atmosphere.
The nearest shop at St Ann's Chapel is very well stocked with everything you need.
In our opinion Navy House is the best place to relax and unwind, we just love it there and would have no hesitation in recommending it.

Navy House

Review Submitted: February 20, 2010 Date of Stay: June 2006
When can we return?! We came from the U.S. and had never visited this part of England before. We were thrilled with Navy House as our base to explore the area. We took walks, we took drives, and we also enjoyed staying put. Navy House was comfortable and in a wonderfully peaceful environment. We do look forward to a return -- hopefully more than once!

What a location, what a place. A relaxed time spent wandering, fishing, canoeing and the odd visit to the local hostelry! Beautiful house, awesome location and a great place to go and unwind. Good access to the coast for walks, fishing and sea kayaking. Looking forward to our next visit.
