“Just one thing the key safe was difficult to acces because of the growth of foliage, but other than that we had a lovely break.”

- Mrs Howard, June 2021
Mr Banister May 2021

“Good quiet location for a family holiday of very mixed ages.”

Lovely beaches around. The lanes sat nav tells you to follow are not for the feint hearted ! Much easier journey to follow A roads to Kingsbridge.

Mrs Withers April 2021

“Cowslip Cottage was absolutely perfect!”

I’ve never been in such a well-equipped holiday rental, and it felt genuinely cosy with its wood-burning stove, really comfortable beds and homey touches likes the little mice (decorative, not real!) in the kitchen walls. Brilliant location for trips to Salcombe, Brixham, Bantham and Hope Cove. Lovely bakery a short walk away (pain au chocolat and pasties v much recommended). Fab pond with tadpoles was popular with the kids!

A delightful place to stay, we arrived in shocking weather just before Christmas and as we pulled up outside we could see the Christmas tree through the window with the lights on ready and waiting we would definitely be happy to return to Cowslip cottage and will also use Sykes cottages next time we are looking for somewhere

“Some of the Cottage documentation needs updating.”

For instance there is no bottlebank as suggested in Frogmore.

Mr Hamer August 2020

“Wonderful cottage”

- Mr Hamer, August 2020
Mrs Galbally August 2020

“We loved the quiet surroundings, yet we were within a short drive to good facilities.”

There were quite a lot of steps leading down to the cottage, the nearest toilet is on the first floor and the rooms are over three levels. Having said that, we did expect that when booking and it didn’t spoil our time spent in the welcoming cottage. We had a lovely time!

- Mrs Galbally, August 2020
Ms Gupta October 2019

“Only remark is that TV could be upgraded as very basic and on a couple of occasions we couldn't get all the channels.”

Otherwise the kitchen is well equipped and we found the accommodation very comfortable and the location beautiful as well as peaceful.

- Ms Gupta, October 2019
Mrs Evans May 2019

“The cottage was well equipped and beautifully presented, a home from home.”

The top bedroom provided me a perfect sanctuary for some much needed rest and relaxation. The area is beautiful and the people we met friendly. I have to thank the owner and Sykes Cottages for the very swift resolution of the tap issue.

- Mrs Evans, May 2019
Mrs Hudson May 2019

“Cottage was of very high standard throughout and very well equipped.”

Even birthday candles which we used twice in our weeks stay! Only slight problem was steps down to cottage which my elderly father found tricky. Otherwise would definitely book again.

- Mrs Hudson, May 2019
Mr Foord May 2019

“We enjoyed our holiday at Cowslip Cottage.”

However correction of small points would have made it even better. There are no locks on the bathroom or toilet doors which could have been embarrassing. Some of the doors need attention as they do not fit well. Whilst we were there we had an electrical failure of one section for no apparent reason. It took some time to discover the location of the fuse box and reset the circuit breaker. (One of our party is a competant electrician). The only other comment is that the lounge furniture is very bulky and can only comfortably seat five not six. Although we had a good holiday we would not want to return to Cowslip Cottage as we would look for somewhere a bit more spacious. Thank you and best wishes.

About the location

FROGMORE

Kingsbridge 4.1 miles; Salcombe 9.1 miles

The picturesque village of Frogmore, located at the head of Frogmore Creek, is surrounded by stunning countryside and is just three miles from the pretty market town of Kingsbridge and a 10-minute drive from Slapton Sands, which makes it a fantastic holiday destination for those looking for a tranquil spot that’s in easy reach of a range of attractions. Walking from Frogmore to West Charleton along the water’s edge is a great way to see the creek before turning inland and heading north through West Charleton. This pretty village is well-known for its excellent bakery, traditional pub, beautiful creek and perhaps most of all, it’s family-focused annual regatta in August.

One well behaved pet will be accepted.
