Pippin Cottage
Summary:
Beautiful Devon Hideaway Near Salcombe
Set in the picturesque village of Malborough, just moments from Salcombe and the stunning South Hams coastline, Pippin Cottage blends rural Devon living with the fresh, breezy spirit of the sea. This beautifully presented three-storey cottage is wrapped in nautical blues and sun-washed whites, echoing the area's proud maritime heritage.
The Space:
Step through the door and into an inviting space filled with light, contemporary décor and calming seaside tones. The relaxed lounge features two comfortable sofas — ideal for snuggling up after days exploring the South West Coast Path. One sofa can be converted into a double bed for occasional use (linen available on request before arrival).
Greyed oak flooring leads effortlessly to the well-equipped galley kitchen, complete with everything required for easy holiday cooking, from relaxed breakfasts to cosy evening meals at home.
Bedrooms with Stunning South Hams Views
Head to the middle floor, where you’ll find:
- A twin bedroom perfect for adults, teens or children
- A modern and spacious family shower room
Ascend once more to the charming master bedroom, set into the eaves and offering spectacular countryside views stretching across the rolling hills of the South Hams — an official Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Wake to peaceful rural scenery and gentle morning light.
Outside the Cottage
Step outside and enjoy a private, sheltered garden complete with:
- Decking and outdoor seating
- A coal barbecue for relaxed summer evenings
- Space for morning coffee or sundowners in the fresh Devon air
With just two steps up to the front door and a single step down from the decking to the lane, the cottage offers easy access to village paths and scenic walks.
Guest Access:
Fresh Escapes provides friendly, unobtrusive support throughout your stay. We’ll check in after your arrival and remain available for recommendations and assistance, while leaving you to enjoy the cottage in complete privacy.
The Neighborhood:
Pippin Cottage sits beside the ancient 13th-century All Saints Church, just steps from:
- Co-Op & petrol station
- Post Office (directly opposite)
- The Old Inn & The Royal Oak – two highly rated local pubs
This welcoming village is perfectly located between sweeping countryside and some of Devon’s most beautiful beaches.

Lovely cottage
The house was spotlessly clean, welcoming and perfect for our needs.
Everything was in excellent condition, and the welcoming pack was a bonus.
We will be using it in the future.
Nothing to improve
