Summary: Wonderful place to stay for the beautiful Devon countryside. We stayed for several months while waiting for our house purchase to go through. Tony and Sue were the perfect hosts, incredibly helpful. Would definitely recommend Buttercup Cottage!

Summary: Buttercup cottage is an exceptional venue. We stayed for a month and did not wish to leave. Our stay was over the November / December period when there was snow on the ground and the wood burner made the whole accommodation feel warm and welcoming. Will definitely return in the summer if the cottage is available. Tony was a brilliant host, pure magic.

Summary: Lovely little cottage, very clean and well presented. Equipped with all you need for self catering. The location is ideal for visiting lots of places, and is one of the few I've stayed in where the incessant drone of distant traffic can't be heard. Tony and his wife were very helpful and were on hand if a problem arose. Hope to return at some point, even though the weather wasn't kind and the lane to the cottage a little daunting!

Summary: We had a lovely week in the Buttercup cottage. Everything was exactly as promised and better. We felt very welcome with the cookies, milk, tea, nescafe and fudge left by our hosts. The house was very clean and welcoming. We enjoyed our stay and the talks with our hosts who shared their beautiful garden with us. We went fossil hunting at the beaches of Lyme Regis and Charmouth. Walking around charming Kilmington and shopping in lovely Honiton. We also went to Exeter by train from Honiton. In short we enjoyed ourselves and would like to return to discover more of beautiful Devon.

Summary: We had a lovely time on our 5 day stay, this is a basic, small property but with everything you could need! Clean, tidy and well equipped, the children loved having puzzles to do and the outside play equipment to explore (although this is round the back of the property, not in sight from the cottage so we did need to go round with them.) The owners are lovely and location is great for exploring the south devon activities. We enjoyed the Seaton Tramway, Lyme Regis beach and the Somerset museum. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a nice base to call home for a few days!
