Beautiful thatched country cottage, quiet countryside position .

Rosemount is a pretty stone cottage with breathtaking views and only a short drive to Lyme Regis and the Jurassic coast. Just minutes from the River Cottage restaurant and River Cottage HQ. Close to the market town of Axminster. Lots of lovely places to walk, with dogs welcome and a good selection of restaurants near by. The cottage is beautifully furnished and there is off road parking for two cars and a decking area with amazing views of the surrounding countryside.
Please note the cottage is very old and the staircase is quite steep, so may not be suitable for older guests.

Charming cottage

We had a brilliant 3 night stay at this property which is in a lovely setting just outside Axminster. The layout is perfect with comfortable & quality furnishings throughout. The kitchen is well equipped too with dishwasher & washing machine! Also outside there is a lovely terrace area with BBQ & small garden with lovely views. Highly recommend.

Loved the little cottage. Felt very peaceful and cosy. Great location to explore the coast and dog friendly. Equipped with everything you need. Celebrated New Year here with the family. Would love to come back in the spring/summer to enjoy the garden which had lovely country views.

Cosy cottage

Nice, comfortable and very quiet cottage, clean and well equipped. For our family it was ideal as a base for trips to Lyme Regis, or some nice hikes in the surrounding area. A few (car) min outside the village, beautifully located. Small downside is the limited space for storage.

August 2022 stay!

Myself and my daughter had our (2nd) stay at this lovely little cottage. We love the area as it is near old friends from Sussex who moved to Devon. The cottage is perfect; clean, cosy and in a quiet position but with good local amenities. Ideal. Love it here x

Picturesque Cottage

The cottage was easy to find and straightforward to get to even though access was via a single track road. On arrival, checkin was easy and the instructions from the hosts clear and easy to follow. The cottage had many of the essentials and was a comfortable stay. The stairs were steep and some of the doorways were low, but we expected at a country cottage. For us, it was a good base to explore the surrounding area for a few days.
