UK Holiday Cottages

Leyside is a sweet, fresh and very comfortable, semi-detached cottage that overlooks the beautiful Slapton Ley in South Devon, a freshwater inland lake that is separated from the sea by a three mile long shingle ridge. Set in the middle of the thriving village of Torcross, there is no need to get in the car as the beach, with watersport facilities, is on the doorstep, an excellent pub/restaurant and tea rooms are a few yards walk, there is a good local post office/village stores from which to buy the groceries and the National Nature Reserve of Slapton Ley is a haven for bird wildlife enthusiasts, all this and more to enjoy from the cottage!

Accommodation:

The rear stable door is approached through a shared courtyard and opens to a small lobby/cloaks area. Pretty kitchen with a tiled floor, pine table to seat 4 and electric cooker, fridge with icebox, washing machine and microwave oven.
