Lily Pond Cottages - Brambles Cottage

Brambles Cottage works well for families or groups of up to six looking for their own self-contained space. The ground floor opens out from living and dining areas into a rear patio and gardens that centre on a pond—a real focal point for younger children. The kitchen has everything needed for cooking proper meals: electric hob and oven, fridge, microwave and coffee machine. Upstairs are three bedrooms: a double, a pair of singles, and bunks, arranged across the floor with a bathroom serving all three.

You get the essentials covered—heating, electricity, linen and towels—plus wi-fi throughout. There is parking for two cars on site, and an enclosed garden means children can play safely without constant supervision. The property is part of a wider cottage complex, so the patio and sitting area are shared with other guests; a barbecue is available if you want it. A bike store is on hand for exploring the surrounding countryside. Torrington itself is a market town on the River Torridge in north Devon.
