The cottage boasts stunning views over the estuary and is a Victorian chalet situated right on the River Teign. Access to the cottage can be by footpath or along the foreshore when the tide is out. The river laps off the walls at high tide, with swans paddling past, creating a picturesque setting.

However, it's important to note that there are 18 steps down to the front door and parking is approximately 200m away, which may not be suitable for those with difficulty walking due to uneven ground.
