Luxus-Scheune am Rande der Start Bay

Cotmore is a 17th century house surrounded by 13 acres of land that was already a farm more than a thousand years ago. It is a welcoming place that is home to Piers, Sue, occasional visiting offspring, and a small menagerie of animals. We moved here from south-east England in 2011, with the aim of establishing an ecologically sustainable farm holiday experience like the ones we remember from our own childhoods in Ireland and Cornwall respectively. We have painstakingly converted stone barns and outbuildings to deliver stylish and luxurious self-catering accommodation at the heart of the farm. As well as horses, we keep Large Black pigs, Shetland sheep, and free-range chickens and ducks, all of which provide a plentiful supply of eggs, sausages, bacon and hams that we are happy to share with holiday guests. And, living just a mile from the spectacular south Devon coast, we take full advantage of our fabulous seaside location to walk, swim, cycle, surf and kayak.

Start Bay is one of the jewels of rural South Devon, where miles of twisting footpaths and quiet sunken lanes lead to the many sandy coves and safe, award-winning beaches for which this part of England is justly famous.

What guests love about the accommodation at Cotmore Farm is the contrast between the spacious, contemporary, and supremely comfortable interiors and the traditional exteriors that fit perfectly into an idyllic and tranquil rural setting.
