“Cody cottage in countryside idyll”

Reviewed 31 Oct 2022

We had a lovely 4 days in Badgers Den. Mandy and Leo were excellent hosts recommending things to do around the area and good dog walks. The location was fabulous, a short walk to the town and easy to access any of the East Devon towns by car. My only slight gripe was that the beds were a bit too soft for me, but that’s a minor inconvenience!
