Located in a conservation area, the gardens are full of interesting plants and trees with several seating areas. Steeped in history, the cottage has many original features, including Kingston’s last remaining donkey house!

Originally a potter’s cottage, Clematis, has front and back doors from the gardens. The front garden has a terrace with table and chairs and the rear garden has a picnic table and barbeque. The rear door opens into a utility room with storage, a washing machine and tumble drier. The cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin leads off this room. A door from the utility room leads to the attractive dual aspect, fully equipped kitchen and dining area with doors to the terrace. Next door is a large sitting room with an open fire and exposed beams. On the first floor are two en-suite bedrooms, one with a super king size bed (or twin beds if required), the other is a double bedroom (king sized bed) also en-suite. Both rooms have views over the garden and the village.

Very enjoyable stay

By Clive Rough on 19-Oct-2024

We had a great stay for 6 nights at Clematis Cottage in late October .The cottage is very comfortable and well - equipped. We immediately felt at home there. There are two good size bedrooms , both en suite, plus a good size and cosy lounge and a spacious and attractive kitchen . We ate in most nights and the kitchen was great for this . The weather was not ideal for us , but there is room to sit in the garden , which would be lovely in better weather. Kingston itself is a small quiet village with a good pub ( The Dolphin ) situated in an attractive location in the South Hams area of South Devon . All in all we had a great stay at Clematis Cottage . Thank you .

Comfortable and cosy stay

By Beth Winsor on 27-Sep-2024

We stayed at both Clematis and Rose Cottages with extended family. It was a great set-up for us as we can be together, and yet have our own personal space when needed. The cottages are both comfortable and cosy, with everything we could possibly need. There were lovely walks from the doorstep and the pub in the village was also great! It has easy access to the coast as well, which we really made the most of. We had a great week-end and can highly recommend!
