Cottage holiday rentals in Saunton Sands

Linsey was very approachable, always answered any questions. My grandad fell ill the day we were meant to come and she was very understanding as why we couldn’t make it

Lovely cottage, had everything we needed for a great week. Well appointed kitchen and bathrooms. All the crockery, utensils and pans you need for cooking. Hot tub was certainly a favourite and well used! Nice to have plastic ‘glasses’ for use outside. Great selection of games was a nice surprise. Being able to walk the dog right from the doorstep made it so easy - we really enjoyed exploring the smallholding. Hosts were very quick to respond with answers and support. Yes, the Tesco delivery man did manage to find us and unload :-)

Absolutely stunning location. Beautiful views. So peaceful. The accommodation is of an extremely high standard and has been decorated beautifully. Lots to do in the surrounding area. Would highly recommend.

The surroundings were lovely and a large enclosed garden was great for the dog and our 3 children. we had many a happy night in the hot tub. Lots of things for the kids to play with. We drove to all the local beaches would say most things are within an hour's drive and would recommend watermouth castle as a day out if you have kids!

We had the most wonderful stay at Maria & Steve’s barn, which has been beautifully converted and is located in a stunning valley. Maria and Steve were super friendly, fantastic hosts and made us feel very welcome. The hamper was lovely treat too! The barn was really well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We enjoyed exploring the local area, including cycling the Tarka trail and Exmoor; visiting the Tarr Steps; walking from the barn around the ancient woodlands and spending the morning at Marwood Hill Gardens. A highlight of our stay was relaxing in the hot tub and listening to the evening birdsong. We would highly recommend Maria & Steve’s, it really is a special place 🌟

The place was really nice and absolutely spotless when we got there. Nigel and Perry were both very nice and helpful and responded very quickly to messages. The only things is one of the windows didn’t have a blind which made it very bright in the mornings and struggled to sleep in. Also the sat nav brought us in a different direction from the directions on the listing which was a little confusing but Nigel was stood outside waiting for us when we arrived so wasn’t really a problem. Just something to mention. Overall it was a really nice stay and would recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Honeysuckle Cottage. Spotlessly clean and bright. Very well equipped modern kitchen. Comfortable lounge and bedrooms and a sunny conservatory for dining in. Our host Helen welcomed us and a gorgeous cream tea awaited us, together with homemade scones, jam and bread. Milk, butter and eggs also provided. Such attention to detail. The garden is pretty and dog safe. Helen even provided dog bowls and towels and a treat! We would highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed.

We had a lovely stay, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Great property, felt right at home and had everything we needed, loved the decor! Private area, but still a short drive to nearest town/things to do. Lovely location, especially for our dog!

Great place to stay. Lovely cottage, beautiful surroundings, not too far from villages & towns. Isobel was perfect host. Would highly recommend

it's our second stay at Fish Cottage, the kids love it, we love it. As we are originally from devon we can access all our favourite places on day trips due to the location so really works for us Cottage is spacious, interesting and really well equipped and comfortable for our family. will continue each year if we can !! thankyou

We loved our stay at Joanne's place! It was super well-located - 5 minutes to the beach on one side and 5 minutes to all the local shops/restaurants on the other. Joanne baked us the most delicious cake upon our arrival, and was super friendly and helpful in telling us all the must-see spots. She sent us a list of recommendations and instructions well in advance, which was also really helpful. Joanne also has the most beautiful, friendly cat who we loved meeting!

Excellent accommodation. Peaceful and beautiful surroundings. High standard of cleanliness and clutter-free, yet all facilities we needed. Would 100% stay here again. 20 mins walk to beach. Really great local pub/food.

Lovely cottage in lovely surroundings. Lots of thoughtful touches and a homely feel. The garden was great, our dog really enjoyed playing and running around and great that it was fenced in. Really close to the beach and lovely town of Braunton. If we didn't have my mum and the dog with us we would definitely have walked there (there's no pavement for a section of the way and didn't want to risk it with the dog). With half an hour of lots of other places to visit, we went to Barnstaple and walked part of the tarka trail and into Lynton and Lynmouth for a day trip.

Fantastic location to explore from. Just a very short drive from Woolacombe but lovely and peaceful. Well equipped cottage and maintained to a high standard. The dog had a great time bounding through the hills and the kids didn’t argue too much about who got the top bunk!

A really lovely space to stay with a magical private wood and meadow. Our host was very helpful. We would definitely return given the opportunity.

Hello My daughter and I had a lovely 3 nights at the millers house. Lovely & cool in the hot weather. Loved the water that ran beneath the building as part of the mill. Very friendly. Many Thanks Lisa

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lesley's cottage. It was spotlessly clean and well equipped. The location, although entirely rural, was in very easy driving distance to Bude. If you are looking for a quiet retreat, this is the place! Our hosts were attentive and extremely helpful. We had difficulties logging into their Wi-fi and (although it was ten at night) it was sorted out quickly and cheerfully. They gave us several local recommendations for restaurants and we were delighted that they were all excellent. (Don't miss The Tree in Stratton village for well-kept beer and fascinating local history!)

I came to the Christian Music Festival at St. Mary’s so it was very handy to walk from there to the church. It was just right for one person. I brought my dog and the courtyard was very handy to take him out into especially at night. Lights came on as we went out in the dark which was great. The cottage was very comfortable and clean.

A lovely little bolthole in North Devon. Far enough off the beaten track to feel remote, close enough to the bigger towns for entertainment as required. We ate in Georgeham which is a 20 minute walk for some great food in The Kings Arms. The dawn chorus in the morning was a delight to wake up too. Prior to arrival, clear instructions were provided by the host to ensure we found the house with no fuss. Highly recommended.

We loved our stay at Mill Cottage. The house was immaculate, cosy, full of character — and the mill wheel still works! There were lots of thoughtful touches, including tea, coffee, biscuits, and fresh milk in the fridge, which were especially welcome after a long journey. The location was great: just a 5-minute walk into the village, which had a good range of restaurants and takeaways. A supermarket was only a 5-minute drive away, and the beach just 10 minutes by car. Carole really was a super host. She went above and beyond to help with additional requirements due to my partner’s disability. Without hosts like Carole, we simply wouldn’t be able to go on holiday — we’re incredibly grateful. Thank you! We’d thoroughly recommend Mill Cottage, and it would be our first choice if we visit North Devon again.

We had a brilliant stay at Hideaway Cottage. It was well equipped, comfortable for 4 adults and the views (and sunsets) from the garden were absolutely stunning. Appledore itself is a perfect location to explore North Devon. Thanks also for the cream tea!

We had a fantastic stay, the cottage feels really homely and is equipped with everything you need. And you can't beat the view!

Lovely cottage perfect for families. Kids and adults felt right at home! Excellent location, close to the beach and right in the centre of the pubs and shops. Host was responsive and very accommodating!

We had a lovely stay a Rock Cottage. It's beautifully furnished, comfortable and had everything we needed to relax after a day walking or beach dwelling! Morthoe is a very pretty little village that has everything you need and Woolacombe is not far at all, a very scenic walk away. We enjoyed Barricane beach with its cafe and sheltered waters for a swim. We hope to return. Thank you Anya 😊
