Vine Cottage

East Prawle, Devon

Vine Cottage, located in East Prawle, Devon, is a charming 300-year-old Grade II listed thatched cottage that accommodates up to four guests in two bedrooms. This delightful property is part of a row of four cottages and features a shared forecourt accessed through a gate. Upon entering, guests are welcomed into a cozy entrance porch with storage for boots and coats, leading into a beamed living room equipped with a storage heater, an electric ‘wood burning’ style stove, and a limited view of the sea. The layout of the cottage flows seamlessly, with a tiled lobby that connects to various essential areas of the home.

The cottage includes a refurbished bathroom and a fitted kitchen that boasts modern amenities such as an oven, hob, dishwasher, and washing machine, along with a spacious dining table. A stable-style backdoor opens to a small paved area that leads up to an L-shaped, fenced rear garden, complete with a lawn and picnic bench, ideal for outdoor relaxation. Although the garden features a gate that leads to non-letting areas, the property also provides a dedicated parking space beside a garage at the rear. It’s worth noting that the steep staircase within the cottage may require caution, particularly as it has a step on the landing.

Vine Cottage offers two comfortable bedrooms; the front bedroom includes a double bed with a partial sea view, while the back bedroom overlooks the garden and features a single bed with a trundle. Both rooms are equipped with storage heaters, ensuring a warm and inviting atmosphere. Situated in the picturesque South Hams region of Devon, the cottage is surrounded by scenic single-track roads and steep Devon banks, with a significant portion of the coastline designated as National Trust land. The location is also near Prawle Point, the southernmost point of Devon, and offers easy access to the South West Coast Path and Start Point lighthouse.

The nearby village of East Prawle provides a selection of local amenities, including the Pigs Nose pub, A Pizza Me restaurant with a licensed bar, and seasonal shops and cafes. The charming market town of Kingsbridge, just a short drive away, features supermarkets, independent shops, and a lovely bookshop. Additionally, the sailing towns of Dartmouth and Salcombe are within easy reach, with ferry services available from East Portlemouth. The surrounding area is rich in attractions, including boat trips and various dining options, making Vine Cottage a perfect retreat for those looking to explore the natural beauty and cultural offerings of South Devon.
