Cottage holiday rentals in Bigbury-on-Sea

Debbie’s place is a little piece of paradise, the setting is stunning, the gardens are fantastic and the cottage is warm and cosy whilst also being spacious and really well laid out. We had everything we needed and immediately felt at home. The open plan kitchen into the cosy living room left us all feeling connected, utility space was really useful, conservatory with stunning views allowed us to dine together and relax during the day. Outside area is also stunning for meals on the patio and bbq’s and the hot tub was great to relax in on an evening looking at the stars in peace and tranquility.. there’s a slight walk up to the property across a field but once you’re in the cottage and its gardens it’s worth every step. Great for the dogs too. Loads to do in the area, our highlight was Lyme Regis beach.. many thanks to Debbie and everyone who made us feel so welcome. We would go back to Debbie’s place in a heartbeat!

Lovely little cottage with fantastic hot tub and outdoor space. Walking distance to Polperro village and easy access to the coastal path too.

Had a wonderful stay at Silva Cottage.The cottage was beautiful and had everything a person could need and very clean. The location was amazing set in woods and so so quiet apart from the birds which were a delight to see and hear especially watching the comings and going’s of Woodpeckers on the bird feeder. The hot tub was spectacular.Set in the woods nothing could compare to sitting back and enjoying the tub with a glass of fizz. We had a great recommendation from Lorraine for an Indian Takeaway which delivered to the cottage and ate a great lunch at The Tamar Inn at Calstock. Great location for walkers with Dartmoor on one side and Bodmin Moor on the other plus the coastal path. Would highly recommend this property and would love to return.

Very lovely place, me and my girlfriend stayed here for a weekend and had no complaints. The host responded quickly and the property looked exactly like the photos. All the extra little touches like the fire wood, slippers, eggs and etc really made us feel welcome. Overall we really enjoyed our stayed and would happily stay here again.

We had a beautiful week at The Cart Barn, beautiful location with beautiful views and a private garden which was perfect for our pooch! we spent most of our evenings watching the beautiful cows out the garden! the hot tub was a lovely addition and the barn had everything we needed to make ourselves and our dog feel at home! Some great recommendations in the welcome book and from the owners of local things to do! Will definitely be returning in the future! :)

Wow! What an incredible stay. We are so happy with our stay. Everything in the property you’d need to have a relaxing home-like stay. The host recommended visiting Covelly which we loved. The hot tub was a great touch as well. Thank you x

Wow! What an incredible 6 days we had staying at Nicola’s place. It was for my partners 21st birthday and Nicola put up banners and balloons which was lovely of her. We both had the best time, it was both of our first time in Cornwall and we explored so much in the time we was there. Boscastle is an amazing place to stay as St Ives was just over an hour away, Marazion was an hour away, Newquay just under an hour. Even the local beaches and exploring Boscastle was so much fun. It really was a great location, the views, the sunsets/ sunrises everything truly was amazing and we will 100% be back in the future. Thank you so much for having us and as I say we thoroughly enjoyed our first time in Cornwall.

Tranquil, beautifully converted barn. Extremely comfortable and very welcoming. Perfect for a break away from the rat race!! And Davina’s gluten-free lemon drizzle cake is amazing!! Thank you for a second very enjoyable stay!

We had a wonderful time at this peaceful countryside cottage. The setting was tranquil and relaxing—perfect for a quiet getaway. Katie was a fantastic host—very welcoming and thoughtful. She even popped in to check that everything was okay and assured us we could reach out if we needed anything. Highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind in a calm and cozy environment!

Great stay in the heart of beautiful seaside village! Good amenities for a long weekend stay, would recommend ⭐️

Ben's cottage was stunning — we loved every moment of our stay. If it were possible to give 6 out of 5 stars, I would have. The surrounding area was breathtaking, we enjoyed wandering through the fields and visited the vineyard, where we sampled some fantastic wine. There were also some excellent local pubs close by, all serving delicious food. Everything felt convenient, peaceful, and just perfect — there wasn’t a single thing we could fault. We’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable getaway.

Thank you Luke & Beccy for a great few days. We needed to relax but still have amenities around us. You were right, we didn’t need to move the car once it was parked. I know we could have travelled & explored but it was more about relaxing in a home from home.

This is a lovely cottage in the heart of Kingsbridge and provides a great base for exploring the local area. The biggest bonus being it has it's own parking space - a rare thing in the centre of the town. The cottage was very clean, comfortable beds & suitably equipped for our 4-night stay. It's only a 3-minute walk into the centre of town which has a good selection of coffee shops, restaurants and local independent shops. It is also very close to the bus station and as we were walking a section of the SW Coastpath from Bantham around to Brixham, there is an excellent service out to Thurlestone, Salcombe & Dartmouth and most places in between, making it very easy to plan day walks. We would certainly look to stay here again if we find ourselves in this area in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay here it was excellent! The cottage was lovely, with super views across to the Hoe. Some very good places to eat and drink nearby, and lots of place to walk. We had a lovely holiday and hope to return again very soon.

What a treat! We had a 4 night stay in this beautiful house where every last detail has been thought about to add to your enjoyment and comfort. Everything was first class, very comfortable beds and pillows, spotless bathrooms with proper size towels, plenty of good cutlery and tableware, utensils for cooking if you wanted to cook. The house was a delight with lovely deep sofas overlooking one of the balconies to the ever changing landscape of the waters beyond. It would be hard not to enjoy whatever the weather throws at you! Thank you for sharing this very special place Joe and Sarah

Wanted to come back as soon as we left! The cottage and its surrounding areas are absolutely stunning. Perfect for a relaxing getaway and a change of scenery. We were given a lovely recommendation for the Rugglestone Inn which we absolutely loved! Easy access to the moor and nearby village of Widecombe. The cottage is fully equipped with everything we could ever need. Not to mention its log fire which brought the whole place together as well as its comfy bed! We will be returning at some point in the near future! Can’t get enough of the place!

Wow we loved this place so so much! Firstly it was within the most peaceful setting you could imagine. Sitting out in the garden was so serene, and the wood fired hot tub was a fun bonus! Inside was immaculate, so cosy and homely! Absolutely everything you might think you need was supplied! The upstairs bedroom/bathroom was dreamy! Surrounded by lovely walks (the coastal footpath was only 5 minutes walk away) and close by to some gorgeous Devonshire villages/towns, I genuinely couldn’t fault this property! Hopefully we will be back soon! ☺️

My husband and I stayed at Victoria’s Garden Cottage for our baby moon and it was perfect for what we were after! The annexe was attached to a stunning house and surrounded by beautiful gardens filled with flowers and field views. It was really peaceful and we had some of the best night sleeps we’ve had in a while with a really comfortable super king bed. The air BnB was in a perfect location, walkable to Salcombe town and North Sands beach. Victoria’s place was also well equipped with everything we needed and was the perfect size for the two of us. Victoria was really friendly, responsive and helpful with recommendations and a later check out too. We would definately stay again and have already recommended it to a friend. Thank you, Victoria!

My wife and I had a lovely 8 nights in Simon and Charlie's place. Very comfortable, well equipped kitchen, very good TV in both kitchen and living room. The bedroom is spacious and very comfortable. Delightful private garden with fishpond and lovely flora. The place is very well situated with a lovely walk down to Anstey's Cove and a very short walk to Kents' Caves. Be aware that the EV charger mentioned in the amenities is just an outside 13 amp plug so if you want to do a full fast charge you need to look elsewhere, but it's OK to top up. Overall, an excellent place to base yourself for the whole area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at Swallows Nest. Lucia and Dan met us on arrival and also left a card and bottle of bubbly for my birthday which I thought was very kind. We have a four year old and one year old so it’s not always easy finding somewhere suitable but Lucia kindly set up a cot for us and supplied a high chair. The upstairs is open plan with a gate across the stairs so very safe for our baby crawling. Our four year old absolutely loved being on a farm and going to collect fresh milk from over the road. It’s so peaceful day and night. It was our first time in this part of Devon and we were blown away by the landscape, pretty little villages and many beaches in such lovely unspoilt settings. We would love to stay again!

Mike and Lyn were very friendly and helpful and were excellent hosts. The cottage was well appointed and beautifully clean. The sofa and bed were very comfortable and we really enjoyed our stay. The area is beautiful and the walk to Ayrmer Cove is stunning.

Very comfortable place with spectacular view over the ocean (the sunset!). Unfortunately we had to shorten our stay and wish we could have stayed longer to explore more of the area. The kitchen is well equipped and we were able to make the evening meals at the house which was convenient as we were travelling with a baby.

What a beautiful house—tastefully decorated and set in a wonderfully peaceful countryside location. Harriet is a fantastic host. We've never received such a detailed and helpful guide before our arrival; it made us feel welcome and well-prepared from the start. The home was fully equipped with everything we could possibly need, and Harriet was always available if anything came up. A lovely extra touch was the fresh bread, milk, and eggs waiting for us upon arrival—so thoughtful! The garden was another highlight: beautifully maintained and clearly cared for with great attention to detail. It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet, comfortable stay in a stunning rural setting.

A brilliant half term break at Lake View - and surprisingly quiet given the number of families! A super well equipped home, making it easy to cook in (the spar at the garage is impressively well stocked), bbq on the terrace or head out for food. I loved that there were so many hooks and a big basket in the bathroom making it easy to keep on top of the clutter. Kids loved the tennis court and pools, and it was 30 mins drive from anywhere you want to go! Thanks Amanda
