Manor CottageDittishamSelf catering holiday cottageSouth Devon |

Manor Cottage is a wonderfully presented period home, part of the original Manor House built in the mid 1800's, which nestles in the shadow of St Georges church in the beautiful village of Dittisham on the Dart Estuary. Dittisham must be one of the prettiest waterside villages in Devon and has long been a mecca for those who enjoy sailing, boating and just generally messing about on the water.
Surrounded by soft rolling hills the Dart estuary meanders down from the bohemian market town of Totnes at its head to the historic port of Dartmouth, with its proud naval traditions. Close to the cottage an area named The Ham allows access to the water, where boats owned by visitors can be launched. (Ask for details.) All in all, Manor Cottage provides a very comfortable base from which to enjoy and explore this wonderfully picturesque and unspoilt part of Devon.
