- Grace Donaghy (9/5): Ideal short stay in a country cottage! - The property was perfect for a nice couple of days in the countryside!
All of the facilities were great, so clean, new and comfortable. Very well maintained property with garden area (just wish it had been sunny so I could have enjoyed that more) Honestly couldn’t have needed anything more for my stay.
It could have been a little tricky to find but they sent detailed information with pictures and a short video of the location so that was extremely helpful and managed to find it without a problem.
If I’m ever in the area in the future I would absolutely stay here again!
- Ruth (9/5): Clearly, a lot of thought, effort & expense has going into creating Careful Cottage.Karen was fab! - Quality of finish, furnishings, decor & accessories.
Responsiveness & communication of owners.
Great views.
Comfortable place to stay.
Awesome shower. No microwave?!
- Rebecca (10/5): - I had a fantastic 2-night stay at The Careful Cottage! From the moment I walked in, I thought, “Yes, I could live here!” The cottage has everything you need—it really does feel like a home away from home. I felt safe, comfortable, and completely at ease.
The setting is peaceful, surrounded by nature, with such good energy—it was the perfect quiet getaway. And the shower… honestly, probably the best I’ve ever had!
I didn’t get a chance to enjoy the outdoor space due to rain, but it looks like a secluded little haven, ideal for a BBQ or relaxing in the sunshine. I can’t recommend this place enough!
- Gareth (10/5): Careful cottage - The cottage was absolutely lovely and everything is at very high standard, bed is super comfortable and everything in the cottage is very modern and high end. The hosts were extremely welcoming and helpful. Absolutely nothing, the place was lovely.
- Claire (10/5): Would definitely return and recommend to others - The place was spotless. Friendly host and lovely location A very minor thing - creaky floorboards upstairs which was surprising as the cottage is brand new
- gale (10/5): Devon biking holiday - The cottage was very comfortable, the views were great and the area was very peaceful and relaxing and the owners were very helpful.
Karen was there while we stayed and she was very welcoming and happy to help with anything we needed.
Thank you for a lovely stay we will book again if we return to the area as we could reach most of Devon from this destination , which we did and rode most of the county's bike trails . The county lines that get you to the cottage aren't great but that's the same anywhere in this area so that's not criticism of the cottage , that's what gives the location its peacefulness.
- Benjamin (10/5): Short, sweet, homely goodness - The bed was amazingly comfortable It was perfect
- John (10/5): A big thank you to Paul and his Mum for making my stay so enjoyable - Super clean property with all the comforts you could wish for .. secure parking and very private …
- Catherine (9/5): Peaceful, comfy and well-equipped cottage. - Beautiful location in the depths of the Devon countryside, just a five minute drive away from where I needed to be, to attend a family gathering in Lapford. Careful Cottage was extremely clean and comfortable. The staff that I met were friendly & very helpful. Parking was easy. There was fresh milk in the fridge & after a long journey, it was nice to relax on the terrace with a cup of tea. Hadn't realised the size of the stables complex or that there were several cottages on site. Enjoyed hearing the horses neighing and also meeting the resident cats and dogs. Petrol station & a Spar shop less than two miles away at Lapford Cross on the A377. There's a good local pub serving food in Lapford village too. There was nothing that made my stay unpleasant, but a couple of things that others might find useful to know before booking. Firstly, the bathroom/toilet is downstairs. For me, it wasn't a huge issue, but I'd have brought my bathrobe, had I known! Also, the sloping ceiling upstairs means that there are areas of the bedroom where you can't stand or sit up straight. Could be a concussion risk for someone tall!!
- Jürgen (8/5): Schön und erholsam - Die Lage war gut und ruhig. aber schwierig zu erreichen, weil die Straßen eng und in schlechtem Zustand sind. Überall viele Schlaglöcher und am Straßenrand tiefliegende Kanaldeckel.
Es fehlen in der Unterkunft einige Einrichtungsgegenstände zB. Gestell für abgewaschenes Geschirr, Im Schlafzimmer ein Kleiderschrank, eine Schere. Für uns war die Couch eine Katastrophe-man konnte nicht ordentlich darauf sitzen
- Neykia (10/5): Perfect and I will definitely be back - Really unique, lovely views, comfortable. Lovely people, really helpful. And milk in the fridge. Had everything you needed and more. Nothing I didn’t like about it
