Boundary Cottage is a lovely place to stay. The beds are very comfortable, the garden is spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. We particularly appreciated items like a stair gate and high chair as we have a toddler. The location is perfect for exploring Devon. It feels like you are out in the sticks as it’s not remotely overlooked, but it’s actually only a minute to the nearest large road. Saltwater Escapes made us feel very welcome and were very helpful when we had a small issue with the cleanliness of some of the rooms. I highly recommend them. We will definitely be back to stay again!
Lovely home, but the cleaning prior to check-in was very poor. photos were sent, and it was not given any deserved attention. A nice home of that standard should have a proper dust down deep cleaning as well as clearing all cobwebs. Toilet rolls was inadequate for the duration of stay, no provision of body wash in those lovely beautiful bathrooms. I think management should review and carry out spot checks to sustain and retain standards. The bath towels appear very dated and a let down on the expectation of such a home. Overall a very nice place that I will be willing to stay again
The cottage is just a 10 mins drive to the popular Torre Abbey Sands and Torquay in Torquay. The popular area of St Marychurch is also less than 4 miles by car and is home to a range of shops, restaurants and cafes. The Babbacombe Downs are also just a 10 min drive from the cottage and not to be missed. The pretty coastal village of Maidencombe is also just a 15 minute drive from the cottage and has a beautiful beach and award winning pub - The Thatched Tavern.
Compton Castle, a National Trust fortified manor house, is close by with Paignton Zoo less than 15 minutes away.
Particular highlights in the local area include:
Babbacombe Downs, The Cliff Railway & The Beach
Devon’s English Riviera is ripe for exploring, and with an idyllic walk along Babbacombe Downs - the highest cliff top promenade in England. Here you can take in the spectacular coastline of South Devon spotting seabirds, seals and even dolphins from above! Babbacombe Downs has received the prestigious Green Flag Award, an international sign to the public that the space boasts the highest possible environmental standards, is beautifully maintained and has excellent visitor facilities. A trip on the historic Babbacombe Cliff Railway takes you to Oddicombe Beach, where the whole family can play in the sea to their heart’s content. Enjoy a visit to the stylish Three Degrees West café, bar and bistro on Oddicombe Beach for coffee, cakes or a spot of tapas. And don’t miss the stunning Cary Arms & Spa on Babbacombe Bay. For adrenaline junkies there is plenty to challenge you with coasteering, sailing, scuba diving and hiking.
Strolling and Walking the South West Coast Path
There’s a host of pretty coastal and woodland strolls to choose from, offering spectacular views and a treasure trove of hidden coves and tranquil settings. Walkers will love the wonderful South West Coast Path, which meanders west along beautiful Babbacombe Bay, around the stunning headland of Hope’s Nose, past beautiful Thatcher Rock and eventually leads via a breathtakingly beautiful and circuitous route towards Torquay. Alternatively, go east past Torquay Golf Club to enjoy the spectacular views across Lyme Bay to Maidencombe Beach, Labrador Bay and beyond. Why not plan a fascinating walk along England’s Seafood Coast?
Babbacombe Model Village
Babbacombe Model Village has 4 acres of award-winning gardens with hundreds of model scenes, tiny vehicles and pocket-sized people. Favourites include: the house on fire, Stonehenge, the model railway, the football stadium, the beach and the lake. For a special evening out, there are stunning illuminations at various times from April – mid October and during holidays like Halloween and Christmas. You’ll also enjoy a visit to their Devon tearoom and shop – open year round.
Bygones
Is a deceptively large attraction and is fascinating throughout, bringing Britain’s past and childhood memories to life. You’ll discover a life-size authentically created Victorian Street, including a forge, sweetshop and apothecary plus a 28-foot model railway, a mock-up of World War I trenches, a 1950s shopping arcade and much more. There’s also a station café and a gift shop – it’s all under cover and open year round.
Kents Cavern
Is one of the most important Stone Age sites in Europe, one of Britain's best show caves and one of Devon’s most popular attractions as the gateway site to the English Riviera UNESCO Global Geopark. Their daily tours take you back to a time when the cave was home to ancient humans, sheltering from extreme weather, making fires, shaping tools and hunting Ice Age animals. The extensive labyrinth of caverns, 400 million year old rocks and spectacular stalagmites and stalactites are quite awe-inspiring. There’s also a gift shop and café – open year round.
Eating Out
Devon’s St Marychurch is choc-a-bloc full of excellent cafés, award winning tearooms and restaurants. Pop into the precinct or stroll along Babbacombe Downs for lots of choice and endless sea views. The Cary Arms on Babbacombe Beach and Three Degrees West on Oddicombe Beach both make spectacular lunch spots – take the famous Babbacombe Cliff Railway from the clifftop at Babbacombe Downs to the two glorious sandy coves. This is England’s Seafood Coast with a delicious selection of the freshest fish and seafood arriving daily from nearby Brixham’s world famous Fish Market.
Sharpham or enjoy the nearby village inns and restaurants including the recently refurbished Thatched Tavern just a few mins walk away.
