Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Relaxing, and chilling heaven.
A superb location, at a cottage that had all we needed. We visited a different location each day, even tho' it was difficult to want to leave, as it was tempting just to go down-hill to the Hunters Inn for the occasional meal, and or drink!!!! Our two Berners loved their stay :-)

Human and canine heaven
I last visited in November 2018 and was overwhelmed by how wonderful the cottage and location was. Due to covid and other commitments it wasn’t until April 2022 I was able to return.I was prepared for having a wonderful break again but not quite prepared for the wonderful changes that had been made to the cottage grounds in particular.There is now a wonderful outside cabin with log burner and fairy lights to sit and while away an evening watching the glorious sunsets over the moors and sea. The cottage now has a larger enclosed outside space for the dogs to enjoy whilst you sit with a morning coffee looking out to sea and across to wales. There are also so many wonderful beaches,towns and woodlands to visit within a short distance. The cottage is beautiful and extremely well equipped with everything for the comfort of human and canine alike. After being again overwhelmed by this perfect north devon holiday home I will not be making the same mistake of leaving it so long before my next visit.

Simply stunning!
It’s actually hard to put into words how beautiful this place is, location is outstanding, you’ll never tire looking at the views! The cottage in itself is fab, with its contemporary interior, spotlessly clean and the beds are extremely comfortable, none of these cheap bumpy mattress’! And were dogs are concerned well it’s doggie heaven with the moors literally on your doorstep, the large secure garden and dog friendly beaches not a million miles away! So glad we’ve found this little gem of a place, I’ve already booked for next year, thank you so Gordon and Sarah 😊

Perfection
I booked 2 separate weeks for next year before even knowing what it was going to be like. From the photos it looked like it would be ideal for us but you never know for sure until you’ve been. I then snuck in a 3 night stay (which we have just returned from) just to check it out and get the lay of the land. What can I say? I knew from the moment we pulled up it was everything we had hoped for and more. Absolutely beautiful cottage, wonderfully decorated, super dog friendly, very comfy and homely. Stunning location and gorgeous garden. Views to die for. Fabulous walks without having to drive. The welcome from Gordon was great and he was very accommodating when we advised that the dogs don’t like people they haven’t had the chance to meet properly so gave them space while we got them out of the car and in to the garden. As we have 2 other weeks booked for next year we didn’t get out and about anywhere other than the local area this weekend as we just wanted a quiet peaceful break before Christmas. To be honest with you I would return here again and again if there was nothing else to do but the local walks however I know there is so much more and therefore it adds to the excitement of our impending 2 visits next year. We have stayed in many dog friendly accommodations over the past 12 years most of which have been great, but I can honestly say, hand on heart, this is our favourite so far and will be somewhere we return to again and again. When we come away we like quality time with the dogs tucked away from the everyday humdrum of busy lives and yes,I’ll be honest, minimal human contact 😂 so this has suited our needs perfectly. We were able to have a look around Moorlands to Sea too as this is where we will be staying first next year and it is also absolutely fantastic. Sarah and Gordon - you have nailed this, I can’t thank you both enough, I just wish I had known about this place from the start. I will tell anyone that ever asks me for holiday locations all about this place because for us and the dogs it is perfection

To die for location
If you're looking for an awesome coastal location and you're a dog lover that wants to holiday with your dog, then look no further. The Coastal Path Cottage will be absolutely perfect for you. Fabulous cottage, to die for views (especially the sunsets) extremely comfortable beds, and very well equipped for all your catering needs. Nearby beaches include Woolacombe and Saunton Sands were you can walk your dog and play ball for miles and miles and miles. If you're a jack russell owner Swimbridge the home of all jack Russell's is close by and well worth a visit too

AMAZING COTTAGE
We stayed here for 4 nights with our Irish Setter. What a magnificent cottage. Direct views over the moor and also the sea. Extremely dog friendly with throws and bowls and a secure garden. The amenities within the cottage are first rate with superb decor and a fully fitted kitchen with all gadgets and a beautiful bathroom. Amazing coastal walks on the doorstep or a short car drive away. We walked parts of the Tarka Trail, the South West Coast Path and also revisited some of the Coleridge Way. Two pubs are a fair walk away (about 60-90 minutes) but it is a nice walk. Thoroughly recommend this cottage any time of the year.

Mrs
This place was like being dropped in heaven! My friend and our 3 dogs stayed here for a week of glorious sunshine, stunning views, massive beautiful gardens and a fantastic spacious comfortable house. The beds were the most comfy I’ve ever had. Throws were provided so the dogs could sit on the couches with us. Combe Martin is tiny however we visited Woolacombe several times as there’s a beautiful huge sandy beach that’s dog friendly there and there’s dog friendly pubs and cafes everywhere. The only downside was as the cottage is in such a rural area there’s no phone signal for telephone calls. We managed with the cottage WiFi for Facebook and WhatsApp although it was slow. I’d highly recommend coastal path cottage as it’s the best place I’ve stayed out of all the dog friendly holidays I’ve been on. Thanks to Sarah and Gordon the welcoming hosts! Happy days!

JUST PERFECT
Absolutely wonderful 2 weeks. Soooooooooo dog friendly, with throws and towels plus dog bowls!! The views are OUTSTANDING - loved sitting looking at the sea. Beautiful gardens, amazing walks right from the door. Wonderful owners. EVERYTHING you could possibly need. We did cook most days and there is everything in the kitchen and more besides!! from all the pans you need, to cake tins, electric whisk, lemon juicer plus things I have never seen and don't know what they are for!! We hope to be back one day to either this cottage or their other next door which is Moorlands to the Sea. Both very different cottages each with their own benefits. Sarah and Gordon are lovely - there if you need them but not "in your face!" , it is a very private and lovely house. We would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Thanks for a wonderful stay. Kerry, Colin, Josh and CJ dog

Everything was perfect
I simply cannot fault Coastal Path Cottage. Our hosts were brilliant, the cottage clean, cosy and comfortable, and the views superb. We could have had better weather, but in November what can you expect? The rental is five-star.
