This is a beautiful propery with spacious rooms.
It is tastefully decorated and the bed was very comfortable. The kitchen is well equiped and we cooked several meals in the large kitchen. The owners left a lovely bunch of flowers to welcome us to Lower Culvermead. There is plenty of hot water. There is a small enclosed courtyard garden which our pet enjoyed. The cottage is sited in a quiet location very close to Tavistock, which is our favourite side of the moor. So that was brilliant! Our visit was in October and we noted that the central heating and bathroom towel rail is controlled by the owner, so you cannot just put it on if you feel chilly, or showering outside of the programmed settings. The owners advise that you text them if you wish the heating to be put on outside of its usual settings. During our stay the heating was on for 2hrs in the morning and 4hrs in the evening. The range was not in use. We thought that the range would make the property really warm during the winter months. There were no instructions on how to use it and it looked as though it had not been used for a long time. There were a couple of oil filled radiators for use if you felt chilly. We managed fine, as the central heating once on, was very warming. Our preference is to be able to control the heating, especially if you holiday during colder months. Although in the summer this would not be a consideration. We missed not having a brush and dustpan to easily sweep up crumbs etc from the kitchen, rather than having to use the vacuum. We enjoyed our stay and Rupert was very friendly and accommodating.

We found Shippen cottages to be ideally located in the East Devon countryside surrounded by good walks and plenty to do with the family; Lyme Regis is about twenty minutes away and Exeter half an hour or so to the west.
The towns of Honiton and Axminster are about ten minutes drive so whilst enjoying the peaceful location you are only a few minutes drive from the main south west arterial routes. The cottage itself is well equipped, deceptively spacious and was spotlessly clean. There is underfloor heating throughout which works a treat! Outside there is a good sized child friendly balcony overlooking a secure lawned garden. There are also meadows (where we saw deer) accessed through an adjacent gateway where the owner has thoughtfully mowed a pathway up to a picnic bench (and rope swing) at the top where you can take in the views. The cottages also sit on a bridleway which appears to have little use but is well marked and gives instant access to open countryside and beautiful views along the valley. The owner really has thought of everything, right down to the conveniently placed hose pipe near the front door that we used to rinse off muddy paws! This property ticked all our boxes and I wouldnât hesitate in recommending these cottages to others and will certainly be returning!⦠Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Iâve never left a review before, but Iâve never felt like I needed too.
This was one of the dirtiest places I have stayed in a long time! I took photos upon arrival and sent them straight over because it was unacceptable, animal hair all over the bed, pillows, throws; tables still having stains on from whomever stayed before us. It looked like because it was just after Christmas Day that the owners forgot to âfullyâ clean and so we had to do it upon arrival after a 6 hour drive. The bedding had hair all inside so that had to be washed before we could even sleep, there was also a very strange smell in the en-suite which we couldnât debunk which lasted the whole stay. The beautiful flowers people spoke about in the reviews were half dead when we arrived, and it felt like no care was given before our stay. The place is also extremely dusty and needs a deep clean! Itâs such a shame because Iâm sure the place could be amazing if the thought was there for everyoneâs stay.

This was our third time staying at Shippen Cottages, we really enjoy staying here.
The cottages are located in a lovely quiet road that is central to both the coast and inland activities. The owners are lovely and really make us feel so welcome during our stay, Anne is a wonderful baker and there is always a cake there when we arrive. We have been deep sea fishing from Lyme Regis and brought some fish home and cooked it If you enjoy sewing I attended a course in Honiton at a lovely sewing shop .the garden at the cottages is full of birds due to all the feeders,ark the owner provides spotters book and binoculars so relaxing to sit on the deck and look for all the different birds. We saw a gorgeous Woodpecker this time Overall I would highly recommend a stay at the cottages, we loved our stays. We also visited the Donkey Sanctuary which has a marvellous restaurant where we had a great meal. We will be going back again

We have stayed in many cottages through the years and we agree that this one goes to the top of our list.
It is beautifully appointed, roomy, warm and comfortable and the owners went out of their way to see that all went well. We spent much of our time sitting in the spacious and light kitchen with its big table. It is a bit off the beaten track but the surrounding countryside is beautiful and the nights are so quiet. There are lovely walks and a field across the road where one can sit for afternoon tea or to watch the sun set. The market town of Tavistock is nearby and worthy of many a visit for eating and shopping. For a peaceful holiday, we would highly recommend a stay at Lower Culvermead. Leslie and Bill September 2024
