Description from owner

Description

A charming cottage in a charming village. Pleasant Maris has 5 bedrooms (one double, one twin/double, 3 singles) and sleeps 7 people. There is a log fire in the living room and an enclosed rear garden.

East Ogwell is a pretty Devon village ideally located for access to lots of local attractions. There is GREAT walking or cycling right from the front door, and within easy reach are Dartmoor and the beautiful South Devon coast. There is a first-rate pub in the village, only about 300 yards away.

There are some beautiful walks right from the doorstep, and the neighbouring villages are equally lovely with equally good pubs. The cottage is about 6 or 7 miles from the coast at Torquay or Teignmouth, and about the same distance from Haytor or Widecombe-on-the-Moor on Dartmoor. It is a fabulous area for walking and cycling.

Getting around

You'll need a car to be honest. It's easy enough to reach the main centre by public transport, but if you want to hit the beach or the countryside then a car is a must.

Interaction with guest

We will send directions and keysafe number. I know the area VERY well although I no longer live locally. I am using the cottage or my own holidays as often as possible (I would prefer to be in East Ogwell than in Florida - honesty!) and like to share this knowledge to help people get the most from their stay. Guests are welcome to contact me before, during, or after their visit in order to help things go as smoothly as possible.

Response from the owner As patiently and politely advised previously there was NO problem with the electricity at any time so this review comes as something of a surprise. The guest was told simply and clearly about the meter, and was specifically advised to go out and enjoy the day as there was nothing to worry about. We are puzzled as to why this advice was ignored. Literally hundreds of guests have stayed happily in the cottage and enjoyed this beautiful area over the past thirteen years so we are sorry this guest felt unable to do the same. You can't please everybody, I suppose.
