Comfortable Character Cottage 'Bumble Cottage'

This is a cosy 200 year old stone built cottage with Character! The cottage is in a tucked away location away from the road but within a short walking distance to local pubs and the village amenities.

The Pack of Cards is a 10 minute walk away and a further 10 minutes walk will take you to the Combe Martin Beach!

The cottage is fully equipped for an enjoyable and welcomed break including Wi- Fi a fully equipped kitchen and the essential free parking at the rear of the cottage for a hassle free break!

The village has many amenities to offer including the following: two great fish and chip shops, 5 pubs to choose from, (some with free pool) a village bakery, gift shops, several convenience stores, a post office, a library, a chemist, a lovely tea room, a deli, ice cream and rock shops, a tourist centre and a museum. And of course a fantastic beach which is great for rock pooling and numerous caves to explore. The beach is exceptionally good for kayaking and there are two very good hire shops in the village including tours and lessons.

The main Bedroom has a King size Bed. The Second Bedroom has a Trundle bed and can be used either as a single bed or two single beds or as a double. Please contact me on booking and advise how you would like the second bedroom set up.

The cottage has recently been updated and has a lovely brand new bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen with a brand new fridge and freezer and microwave oven and gas oven. There is also the added benefit of a brand new washing machine and there is also a Dishwasher which you might not get with another holiday cottage of similar price!

There is a tiered courtyard Garden for al fresco dining. There are stairs to the rear and the cottage is not deemed suitable if you have mobility issues or toddlers.

One well behaved dog is accepted.

Perfect Spot
Great stay at Bumble Cottage, comfortable and cozy with everything you could need for a lovely stay, within easy reach of the town center and beach. I would happily recommend it to friends and family, if we get the chance may return ourselves!

Extremely enjoyable stay in Combe Martin quaint cottage
A particularly quaint cottage of character, well managed and maintained, providing for all our needs. It was a great pleasure to stay here, also spending some enjoyable evenings in around the character fireplace in the cosy lounge. Ideal central location for us to explore North Devon's coastal towns and Exmoor's national park. On arrival we found the whole cottage meticulously clean, with everything in its place, and obviously the owner has gone to great lengths to ensure this for his guests. Would most definitely return at some point.

Happy holiday
We have had a wonderful week here. Communication with Jason from start to finish has been excellent! The digital guide was really handy and just full of information about the area. The cottage is beautiful and has everything you need. We was lucky with the weather so a lighter duvet or fan would have been nice. The locals are very friendly. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend bumble cottage, we would definitely go back. Thank you for a lovely holiday
