Description

End Cottage is a charming two-bedroom, semi-detached thatched cottage located in the traditional Devon village of Malborough.

It lies in the heart of the South Hams Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) near the coast at Salcombe and Kingsbridge and Hope Cove.

The cottage is a listed heritage property with quaint original features and comfortable furnishings, ideal for couples and young families.

It makes a fantastic base for exploring this very special part of southernmost Devon, and has wide rural views towards the National Trust rolling hills above the sea.

The well-equipped kitchen has home-cooking in mind, whether the ingredients are sourced from the village Co-op or farm shop, or from the area’s thriving local food producers.

Your meals can be enjoyed around the dining room table in the homely living room, or in your own private garden.

Up winding cottage stairs are two bedrooms tucked in under the thatch.

The master bedroom has a comfortable king-size bed, with an en-suite WC and wash basin.

Wake up to inspiring southerly views towards Bolberry Down and the coast!

The second bedroom has a full sized single and a bespoke child’s bed (5ft x 2ft 6).

Both rooms are perfect for unwinding after a fun-filled day.

To the rear of the property is a private courtyard, with a reserved parking space, as well as access to a sheltered cottage garden.

In the warmer months, enjoy a barbeque and watch the sun set from the patio, and on colder nights, a log-burning stove in the beamed living room creates a cosy atmosphere.

Bring your loved ones to End Cottage at any time of year for an unforgettable getaway in deepest Devon.

Note: This property can be booked with the attached cottage, Rose Thatch Ref. 1093665, together sleeping up to 9 guests.

The only downside is the entrance.

Was here last year and it didn’t pose a problem. But for some reason this year I unfortunately scraped the bumper on the way out. There is a warning about the narrow entrance. Advisable to have guidance from a second person.

Took my mum here for a holiday and we both enjoyed our stay.

Very nice cottage. Lovely oldie worldie place. Lots of character but with modern and well equipt kitchen. Take time to read the folders with lots of suggestions for walks and local places to visit. All the beds were really comfy and every night was a good nights sleep. Would definitly book again. Could this be Devons best kept secret?

This is such a lovely quirky little cottage in an authentic South Hams village.

The cottage is very well equipped and we felt it was a real home from home. It is a bit dark inside as cottage windows are tiny, but there is a range of lighting options and the stable door in the kitchen lets in a lot of sunlight when opened. There is a lovely private garden by way of outdoor space. The access to the parking is tight but we managed it. The village hall car park is nearby if preferred. It is a short walk to both village pubs and there is a bus to Salcombe for £3 each way which is a great option when parking slots are scarce in August. We really enjoyed our holiday and have no hesitation in recommending End Cottage Malborough.
