Book direct with Devon Coastal Cottages for a more personal, flexible and carefully curated South Devon holiday. Based in the South Hams, Devon, we are an independent local business with handpicked coastal cottages and holiday properties in some of the area’s most sought-after locations, offering a more personal service than a typical online booking platform.

Booking direct with Devon Coastal Cottages means a more personal, flexible and thoughtfully curated way to plan your South Devon stay. Here’s what makes the difference:

Independent, not a booking platform

We’re not a national listing site or marketplace. We’re a small, independent business based in South Devon, offering a more considered and personal approach to holiday bookings.

Carefully selected properties

Every cottage we offer has been chosen for its location, feel and quality, they’re all places we would confidently recommend to friends and family and stay in ourselves.

No unnecessary booking fees

When you book direct, you avoid the extra charges often added by larger platforms, making your holiday better value from the start.

A more personal service

You’re dealing directly with a local team who know the area and the properties well. We’re here to help you find the right place, not just process a booking.

Flexible stay lengths and arrival days

We understand that not everyone wants a standard seven night break. Wherever possible, we offer flexibility on stay length and arrival/departure days, whether you’re planning a short break, a midweek escape or a longer stay.

Dog-friendly holidays made easy

Many of our cottages welcome dogs, with year-round dog-friendly beaches and coastal walks right on your doorstep.

Ideal for families and group stays

Whether you’re booking a family holiday or bringing everyone together for a celebration, we offer cottages that work for different group sizes, including the option to book multiple properties together.

Carefully chosen coastal locations

All of our properties are close to the best of South Devon, whether it's a beach, coastal path, or seaview and places like Salcombe and Kingsbridge, so you can spend less time driving and more time enjoying your stay.

Straightforward, transparent booking

No complicated processes, just a simple, direct way to book your holiday.
