A charming, quintessential detached stone cottage, sitting in beautiful mature gardens of 0.35 acres and bordering a shallow trout stream which feeds Slapton Ley. There is ample parking.
This picture postcard home is in a rural hamlet in an idyllic coastal valley between Kingsbridge and Dartmouth.
Believed to date from the 1750s, Quack Cottage is full of character with beams, deep window seats, thick walls and an inglenook fireplace complete with old bread oven (not used) and a large log burner.
On the ground floor is the open plan living / dining room with a fabulous inglenook fireplace and woodburning stove. There is a light filled kitchen and a downstairs single bedroom with wash hand basin. On the first floor, a south-facing double bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe, and a sunny single bedroom plus a family bathroom. Both upstairs bedrooms have window seats overlooking the gardens and stream.
Quack Cottage nestles in the magical Gara Valley between Slapton and Strete, below the hamlet of Hansel in the heart of the South Hams AONB. Slapton is a beautiful and very popular village, just inland from the famous Slapton Sands and lying midway between Kingsbridge and Dartmouth. Slapton has a thriving local community with two excellent public houses, a new community village store, village hall, church and chapel. It is a 40 minute walk to Strete on green lanes where there is a lively community pub with sea views and a shop / post office, 60 minute walk to Strete Gate beach and many more paths and tracks to explore.
