The Pepper Pot Villa - Lympstone

Had a great weeks stay at the Pepper Pot, a quirky little cottage but that suited us down to the ground, all facilities you needed were there. The village is lovely with 4 great pubs, a convenience store with PO and a little cafe. With the train station so close, , you can reach Exmouth, Exeter, Dawlish. so plenty to do. I bought an East Devon Parking permit which cost £25 for the full 7 days and then didn't have to pay daily and you could park in other car parks controlled by East Devon in the price. Karen was brilliant and communicated very well even letting us know by text message that the little fish "shack" was open on Saturday and so we went and purchased some fresh crab which was great. All in all a great week was had and we hope to return one day.

My recent stay at Pepper Pot Villa was fantastic! The quirky little cottage was just perfect for a cozy getaway. The village of Lympstone was lovely, with great pubs and a convenient store nearby. Plus, the access to the local railway service made it easy to explore the surrounding area. One specific situation that stood out was when Karen, the owner, provided fresh flowers and a welcome Prosecco upon arrival. It was such a thoughtful and cute gesture.

Although there were a couple of minor issues, like a creaky single bed and the need for a few hooks in the bathroom, they were really not a problem.

During my recent stay at The Pepper Pot in Lympstone, I was delighted by the quaint character of the cottage. Its charming ambiance created a warm and cute atmosphere, making me feel right at home. The location of the cottage was also a major highlight, as it allowed for easy access to the beautiful Exe estuary trail. I enjoyed leisurely walks to both Exmouth and Topsham, with a good pit stop at the Puffing Billy pub in Exton.

While the overall experience at The Pepper Pot was enjoyable, there were a couple of drawbacks worth mentioning. Upon arrival, it took a while for the cottage to warm up, and I noticed some draughtiness downstairs.

The location was perfect, with the village and train station just a stone's throw away. The cottage itself had a cozy atmosphere and provided everything we needed for a long weekend.

One thing worth mentioning is the somewhat confusing signage in the car park about parking fees. using the phone app for payment worked seamlessly.

The location was excellent, with easy access to the nearby pubs, tearoom, and convenience store. It was also great to have the Exe Estuary Trail right on our doorstep for outdoor activities. the close proximity to the train station allowed us to easily explore other destinations in the area.

The cottage felt quite damp, probably due to the recent rainy weather. the interior was small and dark, with outdated furnishings that gave it a very old-fashioned vibe.

The bathroom was cozy and had a nice shower. It made me feel refreshed and ready for the day. As a busy parent, it was a great little sanctuary to relax in.

The bathroom only had a shower. Personally, I prefer having the option of a bath, but others might still enjoy it.

The location was absolutely perfect for our long weekend getaway. The cottage was super cosy and had all the amenities we needed. We were thrilled to have the train station so close, making our travels around the area a breeze. The village itself was beautiful, with four amazing pubs, a convenience store, and a charming little cafe. The host, Karen, was fantastic and kept us well-informed about local events like the fresh fish shack opening. we had a mind-blowing week and can't wait to come back someday.

The nearest airport was conveniently close, so I didn't have to travel far. The holiday home had everything I needed, from a stovetop for cooking to a cozy fireplace for relaxation.

Oh, the TV's sound quality, it was just perfect for those moments when I wanted to enjoy a symphony of static.

The morning meal could have been improved with the addition of a microwave. It's become somewhat of an essential nowadays, and it would have been convenient to have one available.
