Bossell Cottage is a light and bright 2-bedroomed holiday home in a quiet and green cul-de-sac. It has free, unlimited fast broadband wifi, Smart tv with free Netflix, Freeview and Sky tv, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, gas central heating and a secluded back garden which is a sun trap. At the front of the cottage there is a bench surrounded with lavender. Bossell Cottage has all the basics such as tea, coffee, sugar, washing powder, books, maps, travel guides, games. etc. A bottle of wine will be waiting to wish you a lovely holiday in Devon. We have teamed up with BECS, an award-winning training company. Bossell Cottage is now one of their venues for their mental health retreat and exclusive business English experience in Devon. Pets and parties are not allowed at Bossell Cottage unfortunately. I hope you like Bossell Cottage as much as I do.
We will be waiting for you with the keys. We have lived in Devon for 30 years and are passionate about promoting our beautiful county. Find us on Facebook under "Devon Hols".
Bossell Cottage is tucked away but is still very central. Opposite our road is the open-air heated swimming pool, play and skate area and bus station. Next to Bossell Cottage is the bowls, tennis and football club. A 3-minute walk will take you to the centre of town with its shops, pubs, restaurants, cafes, tea room, supermarket, chemist's and newsagent's. Check out Buckfast Abbey, the South Devon Railway with its steam trains and the Otter and Butterfly Sanctuary. They are all in walking distance. The river Dart runs through the town which is a favourite spot for wild canoeing. You can go hiking and horse riding on Dartmoor. There are many golf resorts and on the English Riviera you can enjoy its many beaches and all types of watersport. Bossell Cottage is on the southern edge of Dartmoor next to the A38. Within 20 minutes you are in the university city of Exeter, Britain's ocean city Plymouth and the beaches of the English Riviera. It only takes you 10 minutes to stylish Ashburton and the market town of Totnes which is twinned with Narnia.
