Cottage vacation rentals in Drake's Island

Wow we loved this place so so much! Firstly it was within the most peaceful setting you could imagine. Sitting out in the garden was so serene, and the wood fired hot tub was a fun bonus! Inside was immaculate, so cosy and homely! Absolutely everything you might think you need was supplied! The upstairs bedroom/bathroom was dreamy! Surrounded by lovely walks (the coastal footpath was only 5 minutes walk away) and close by to some gorgeous Devonshire villages/towns, I genuinely couldn’t fault this property! Hopefully we will be back soon! ☺️

We would like to extend our thanks to Samantha for her hospitality, we really enjoyed our stay at The Piggery! This beautiful cottage is in a serene location, very clean, cosy and warm. The Piggery was well equipped with everything we needed to enjoy a relaxed and comfortable stay in Cornwall. Information and welcome packs were detailed and very helpful in explaining key features of the property. Thank you!

We had a lovely weekend, would definitely stay there again!

As a group of four we had an excellent stay at Briardene. The cottage had plenty of space and was extremely well equipped and very clean and stylish. The hot tub was lovely and the quiet nights enabled a good night's sleep. There were two parking spaces which was great as the village is small with narrow roads. The village pub was warm and welcoming and the food was great. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

We had a great break at Harper's Cottage, Richard and Ute were great hoss.. We had a great welcome and quick tour, lots of good recommendations for where to eat out and about the area in general. All the small touches at the cottage add up to a great stay. Well equipped kitchen, lovely linens, dog beds, great shower, great hot tub, all of it was Fab. The cottage was very private, with amazing views from the garden and the conservatory. We hope to visit again next time we are in Cornwall.

Lovely little cottage with fantastic hot tub and outdoor space. Walking distance to Polperro village and easy access to the coastal path too.

We had a beautiful week at The Cart Barn, beautiful location with beautiful views and a private garden which was perfect for our pooch! we spent most of our evenings watching the beautiful cows out the garden! the hot tub was a lovely addition and the barn had everything we needed to make ourselves and our dog feel at home! Some great recommendations in the welcome book and from the owners of local things to do! Will definitely be returning in the future! :)

This was a lovely place to stay. We were 2 couples and a dog and we all had a relaxing time at the house which has everything you need to cook and relax together. It’s a very peaceful place, I am a very light sleeper and I slept so well here! The beds were extremely comfy and cosy. The sauna and jacuzzi were perfect both times we used it we had it to ourselves which felt very special. Highly recommend it.

We had a great time and enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The host, Dean, was very helpful when we arrived and got a travel cot for us. The house is very charming and peaceful, it has a nice enclosed garden and it’s a lovely area to go and explore. Overall id highly recommend.

Wonderful stay at the Apple Loft, I loved everything about it. Kate is the perfect host - friendly and helpful. The space has everything you need for a cosy and comfortable stay. Lovely private courtyard garden with gorgeous 'cottage garden' charm (great for dogs - the garden is completely enclosed so no worries about them wandering off!) The farm is beautiful and peaceful, with great walks right on the doorstep. It felt completely secluded and private, yet it was comforting to know that Kate was next door in case I needed anything (which I didn't, everything ran like clockwork!). I will definitely be back xx

Absolutely perfect stay! Having first stayed here in 2019 we returned and have just spent three nights at this beautiful rural Airbnb and couldn’t have asked for more. The bed was incredibly comfy, ensuring a great night’s sleep after long coastal walks. The hosts were warm, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. The property had everything we needed, and the garden was a peaceful spot to relax. We loved the walks to Hope Cove and also did a fantastic 10km hike along the coast to Salcombe. Can’t recommend this place enough. We’ll definitely be back!

Great house. Beautiful area and gardens. Has everything you could want. Parking is in another street but wasn’t problem as you can walk from it. Would love to stay again

Wanted to come back as soon as we left! The cottage and its surrounding areas are absolutely stunning. Perfect for a relaxing getaway and a change of scenery. We were given a lovely recommendation for the Rugglestone Inn which we absolutely loved! Easy access to the moor and nearby village of Widecombe. The cottage is fully equipped with everything we could ever need. Not to mention its log fire which brought the whole place together as well as its comfy bed! We will be returning at some point in the near future! Can’t get enough of the place!

We were so happy with our stay, Kelly was extremely attentive and we could tell from the start that she was going to be a great host. If you want to stay in the Challaborough area, there is no better place to stay than in this cottage. Thank you 🙌

Jenny is not a super host for nothing! She was absolutely brilliant in offering help and advice about places to visit, beaches, restaurants, etc She gave us detailed directions how to find places we wanted to see, even checking road works to ensure our journey was smooth. Jenny texted every morning to say when she was available if we needed any help. We found her to be super friendly and responsive. We enjoyed our stay, especially relaxing in our little private garden, as the weather was so lovely while we were there. Thank you Jenny for looking after us so well.

We so highly recommend Jeanette and Honeysuckle Cottage for a stay in the beautiful Devon countryside and can't wait to return. Really appreciated the cosy warm log burner already prepped to light and the comfy sofa, We were lucky enough to have a cream tea on arrival followed by a lovely walk up to Brentor Church for a panoramic view. We bought steak from Howells Butchers in Tavistock and cooked at the cottage in the compact but well equipped kitchen. Bunny rabbits on the lawn if you're up early enough.

Repeat stay with Chris as the property is so lovely, clean and homely.

The property was as described and we found it beautifully decorated and stacked with useful equipment. The kitchen had all the cooking tools you could need for a comfortable stay. We really enjoyed our visit and found plenty of room to host family for dinner. Thank you for making this a real home from home! We shall be back. Thank you.

The location is ideal – just a short stroll into the village, meaning we could pop out for morning pastries or evening meals without worrying about parking. The views from the windows are exactly what you dream of for a Cornish getaway. A truly memorable stay in a charming corner of Cornwall!

My partner and I took our 7 week old son to Vivienne’s place for a lovely stay in Cornwall, for our first family holiday. The location was perfect, idillic and peaceful. The accommodation had everything we could have asked for and Vivienne even brought a cot in for us. The views were stunning and waking up there every morning was beautiful. There are cows on the neighbouring property which come up close to the fence and also chickens in the yard in the morning. We would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

My favourite airbnb I have ever stayed at! The cottage is so beautiful and Oliver and Louise were so responsive and helpful with great tips for the area! The space was clean and tidy and had all the amenities you could need! Woody the lab is very sweet, we will miss him! Whenever I return to Cornwall I will book again without a shadow of a doubt!

What a clean, beautiful cottage in such calm surroundings - we've enjoyed every minute. The cottage was perfect - clean and tidy with stunning nautical decor, we felt right at home the minute we walked in. The view of the sea is much better than described - a highlight for me was sitting in bed drinking my morning coffee watching the waves! The beach is a 2 minute walk away and we had it pretty much to ourselves. Sadly we didn't catch a glimpse of the local dolphins! The garden is full of beautiful flowers - the access is from the road up a path with steps thru the garden. The kitchen had everything we needed in the way of utensils/cutlery/crockery, the bedrooms were clean with fresh bedding, the lounge was well stocked with games/books/dvds which the kids loved. Nick was extremely responsive and proactive, very helpful when I messaged him, and we were very grateful for a bit of flexibility on checkout. Overall a lovely relaxing experience - can't wait to return!! Thank you!

Would highly recommend Penrose. Absolutely stunning views and really lovely bungalow. Really clean and comfortable with everything you could need Matthew was a great host, providing a whole host of things to do and places to visit Great food 5 mins walk down the hill and stunning beach walks for the dog Would definitely go back

Beautiful location, some fantastic walks straight from the location, stunning view of sheepstor and private area to sit.
