About this cottage rental
Hope Cottage, Chittlehampton
Nestled in the heart of Chittlehampton, one of North Devon's most picturesque villages, Hope Cottage is a charming thatched retreat surrounded by beautiful cottages, a historic church and village square, often used as film locations. The village offers a welcoming pub, The Bell Inn, renowned for its triple-cooked chips, local ciders and gins, alongside a well-stocked village shop with a bakery, butcher, post office and tea room.
The Space
Hope Cottage is a Grade II listed former coaching inn dating back to the 16th century, combining historic character with modern comforts. Original features include exposed beams, stone walls and the former Tap Room, where beer barrels were once stored.
Living Areas
Relax in the cosy lounge with leather sofas, log burner, TV with Chromecast, books and board games. The adjoining dining room provides a warm, welcoming space for meals, especially during the cooler months when the wood-burning stove is lit.
Kitchen
The fully equipped country kitchen includes a range cooker, double oven, microwave, fridge freezer, cafetières, espresso pots and plenty of crockery and glassware. Tea, coffee, sugar and basic kitchen essentials are provided.
Bedrooms & Bathroom
The cottage sleeps five guests across three spacious bedrooms: one king, one twin and one single. All rooms feature comfortable Victorian-style beds, storage, USB charging points and individually themed décor. The family bathroom includes a beautiful slipper bath and separate shower.
Utility Room
The original Tap Room now serves as a utility and boot room with washer/dryer, dishwasher and drying facilities for outdoor clothing.
Outside
Enjoy a morning coffee in the private courtyard or head to the cottage's elevated garden for stunning valley views and evening sunsets. A BBQ, charcoal and trolley are provided during the summer months.
Dogs
One well-behaved small or medium-sized dog is welcome. Please note there is no directly attached garden, but nearby fields, footpaths and the village cricket green offer excellent walking opportunities.
Other Things to Note
As this is a traditional thatched cottage, smoking, vaping, candles and naked flames are not permitted. Guests are provided with cleaning supplies, laundry detergent, tea, coffee, sugar and fresh milk on arrival. Please bring your own toiletries. Electric vehicle charging is not permitted at the property, but local charging points are detailed in the house handbook.
Whether you're exploring the North Devon coast, enjoying countryside walks or simply relaxing by the fire, Hope Cottage provides the perfect base for a memorable stay.

10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2025
We had a fabulous stay at Hope Cottage. It's situated in a great village with a lively local pub and a village shop and cafe. The village is 30 mins or so away from the heart of Exmoor or some great North Devon beaches. The cottage itself is spacious and extremely well equipped. The owners have taken great care to provide you with a welcoming home from home. We would thoroughly recommend and book again.
