Deviock Farm House

Deviock Farm House is a 5-star rated cottage in Downderry, a quiet clifftop village on Cornwall's south-east coast between Looe and the Tamar Valley. The property has three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with a private entrance and enough space for families or small groups. Dogs are welcome.

Inside, a wood burner anchors the living space, with a fully equipped kitchen that includes a dishwasher and washing machine. Wi-Fi runs throughout the property. The kitchen opens to a garden where a hot tub and barbecue area provide the main outdoor draw - particularly useful given Downderry's south-facing aspect and sheltered position.

The garden is a strong feature, with free private parking on site. Seaton Beach lies 2.4 km away along the coast path - an easy, flat walk with views across Whitsand Bay. Downderry's own south-facing sandy beach rarely gets crowded even in peak summer, and the calm water suits swimming rather than surfing. The Monkey Sanctuary at Murrayton is 4.6 km away for a family day out.

Downderry itself has a pub, a village shop, and not much else - which suits the pace of the place. Plymouth is about 30 minutes across the Tamar Bridge for a bigger town, and the Rame Peninsula is nearby. Check-in is from 15:00.
