Brownscombe Cottage
Brownscombe Cottage is situated in the original farm yard adjacent to owners Kate and Andrew’s house. A private and cosy home from home, surrounded by pretty garden and with a secluded star gazing nook at the back, this is the perfect place to kick back and relax.
COSY AND WARM
The beautiful oak frame was built by Carpenter Oak, and with underfloor heating supplied by our biomass boiler, the cottage is toasty and warm in the colder months while designed to allow cool breezes to flow through from the balcony and garden in the summer.
Our cottage is perfect for adults who want to enjoy our facilities with the comfort of four solid walls, and the children will love all that Brownscombe has to offer (including the all important farmer’s rounds in the morning).
It’s also a great option for grandparents who would love to join the family holiday but can’t be persuaded to try glamping!
Packed with character it is an ideal base to explore South Devon or to just switch off for a few days and enjoy the bird song from the wood behind the cottage.
PRIVATE STAR GAZING
We have set up a “dark sky” nook behind the house complete with fire pit and Adirondack chairs, as it is an ideal spot to star gaze and look out for the Tawny owls who have a nest in the wood. A strategically placed piggy peep hole in the hedge also means you can watch the (very cute) piglets from the sitting room window.
