The property

Vine Cottage is a 300 year old Grade II listed thatched cottage, third in a row of four.

At the front, a gate shared with next door takes you to a small forecourt.

The front door opens into the entrance porch with storage for boots/coats.

The cosy living room is beamed with a storage heater, electric ‘wood burning’ style stove and a limited sea view.

From there you pass into a tiled lobby, to the left steep stairs with freezer underneath, to the right the refurbished bathroom, ahead a step up to the fitted kitchen, with storage heater, oven and hob, dishwasher, washing machine and large dining table.

The backdoor is stable style and takes you to a small paved area and up several steps to the L shaped fenced rear garden with lawn and picnic bench. (The gate at the bottom of the garden leads to a path, ruined outbuildings and the garage which are not included in the letting).

The parking space is beside the garage at the rear.

The staircase is steep and has a step on the landing.

There are two bedrooms.The front bedroom has a double bed and a partial sea view, and the back bedroom looks over the garden and has a single bed with a trundle.Both bedrooms have storage heaters.

The cottage is in the beautiful South Hams of Devon where single track roads with passing places wind through steep Devon banks and a fair amount of the coast is National Trust.

East Prawle is to the east of the Salcombe estuary, (Salcombe is on the far side), near the most southerly point of Devon, Prawle Point. It is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, close to the South West Coast path, Start Point lighthouse and spectacular coastal scenery, within easy distance of all kinds of beaches and places of interest, with Dartmoor further afield.



The sailing towns of Dartmouth and Salcombe are within easy driving distance.

Salcombe is accessible by passenger ferry from East Portlemouth just a few miles down the road.

Near to the village of East Prawle you will find the 'secret' beach known as Maceley Cove.Accessed via a steep and narrow cliff path Maceley Cove is a small sandy cove below the rocky bulk of Gammon Head on the South Devon coast and welcomes your 4 legged friends all year round.

The nearest town is Kingsbridge, an appealing market town with supermarkets various independents and a lovely bookshop.

Springfield and Stokeley farm shops are on the way to Kingsbridge and Dartmouth respectively.

There are boat trips from Dartmouth and Salcombe, and lovely countryside, attractions and places to eat in the wider area too numerous to mention.
