After a week on holiday we decided to spend a few extra days in Devon before the long drive back to the northeast. We stayed at the Granary which is one of the cottages available at Great Eckworthy Holiday Cottages near Buckland Brewer.
We found the very well appointed cottage down the traditional high hedged Devonshire roads and drove into complete peace and quiet.
The Granary is set on 2 floors with a large hot tub on the private patio immediately outside the door. You ascend a few outdoor steps to the entrance door and into the top floor which has the kitchen and the lounge area.
Downstairs from there is the toilet and shower as well as the bedroom and dressing room.
You may not describe the Granary as spacious but it is a really good size for 2 occupants.
Everything throughout the Granary is good quality and finished off to a very high standard as well as being spotlessly clean. Everywhere has been tastefully decorated and furnished with lots of attention to detail.
The hosts, Anna and Chris, are obviously very proud of their beautiful cottages that they’ve created. They were a lovely couple who made us feel very welcome and were happy to help with any information about the surrounding area (Anna’s father is also happy to help with any information if you happen to bump into him).
We will definitely return now that we have found this little gem hidden away in the Devonshire countryside and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.
