The cottage was lovely, with everything we needed. It was close to the centre of Topsham and and the train station. Lovely walks to the quay. Really helpful host when we needed to get on touch. Brilliant to have private parking, but a squeeze for a larger car. Will definitely be booking again.

We had a very pleasant stay in a lovely village. The cottage comfortably met our needs. As advised by the owner the parking was challenging. The smaller the car the better. Overall we were very happy with our stay.

Exactly as advertised and deservedly recommended ‘excellent’ again and again. This historic cottage is compact but well updated with all facilities including wifi. Scrupulously clean and simply but tastefully furnished, Exeter cottage provides an excellent base for regional touring - even better perhaps for local exploration of the ‘Tops’ham’ area. Don’t miss a walk to eye opener ‘Darts Farm ‘ UK best farm shop 2025 or to the Antiques emporium on the quay and a multitude of other quality attractions

The little house is in a great location for shops and everything Topsham has to offer. The house itself is fine for a place to sleep but realistically you wouldn't want to spend much time there. It seemed to get very little light so was a bit depressing but if you're on your holidays then just get up and out and it's fine. Our main issue was the parking, or lack of. It was a stress every single day. I honestly have no idea how anyone (unless you're in a tiny smart car) managed to get in and out of the 'space' provided. If you have a normal sized car, I can't see how it is doable. I have read reviews where people have managed it but honestly, I do not know how - with a fair bit of stress I imagine and maybe a few scratches to your car. Topsham is tough to find spaces and we often had to park quite a bit down the road. Road parking is for only an hour between 9 and 6. If you're up early and back late, then less of a problem but even then expect a bit of a walk once you manage to find a space. I wouldn't stay here again and I don't think the car parking space should be advertised as one at all. If you were coming on the train and if you just want somewhere to lay your head, then this place is for you. If you have a car and you need somewhere nice to relax and chill, then I would find somewhere else.

Nice little cottage, but too dark inside with daylight and a bit too many domestic parafernalia. Good bed, nice bedroom and well appointed kitchen. Bathroom needs thorough cleaning, esp. the tiles and rail above the bath.
These findings were a bit to our surprise, maybe because the number of relevant photographs on the site is limited. Kind and helpful contact with owner via telephone.
Situated in a quiet courtyard, just off the main high street in Topsham, this lovingly restored cottage has two bedrooms, a comfortable lounge with wood-burner and a modern well-equipped kitchen and free Wi-Fi. Outside the cottage has it's own parking space and a terrace. The cottage has gas central heating.
The main bedroom benefits from a large built in wardrobe, a very comfortable bed and a view over the courtyard. The second bedroom has bunk beds and is ideal for children or one adult. The bathroom is downstairs and has a full size bath and a shower over it - towels are provided.
The lounge has seating for 4 and a fold up dinning table and chairs for family meals. You can also use the breakfast bar in the kitchen for quick meals. A porch provides storage for boots and coats.
