Carswell Farm Cottages

Tucked away on the South Devon coast, our 7 holiday cottages are in the heart of our working organic dairy farm yet only a few minutes walk from the coast path.

Sam’s busy in the workshop today doing some running repairs on a hot tub. There’s never a dull moment with 7 holiday cottages on site 😊 #welding #workshop #hottubrepair #devon #holidayaccommodation #hottub

Carswell Farm is one of the few places in the country where you can spot a cirl bunting. Cirl buntings were once widespread & common across much of southern England, but recently, they have become rare & only found in south Devon. Thank you to Ian Maylen for the photograph 📸

We have just opened The Beach Hut up for winter bookings, so if you fancy a weekend away from it all, this could be the perfect retreat... #winterbreak #staycation #beachhut #devonwinterbreak #winterholiday

It’s not just our larger cottages which have received some TLC during lockdown; The Mews now has lovely new sage green woodwork and new decking from the bedroom into the garden https://t.co/g1m6BJxVDH #lockdownproject #couplesgetaway #romanticcottage #devon #visitdevon

During lockdown we took the opportunity to begin refreshing the interior of Lambside House. Whilst it’s not totally finished, & stage 2 will include updating the upstairs, we are delighted with the transformation of the ground floor #interiordesign #lockdownproject #visitdevon

We’re a little late with our #HappyFriday note today as the whole team have been busy preparing the cottages to reopen for the arrival of guests from Monday. We can’t wait to see you all again! A very Happy Friday indeed! #reopening #holidaycottage #devon #staycation

And here’s a still image of the finished driftwood bench at The Beach Hut 👌 #driftwood #lockdownproject #devon #beachbench

Guests at The Beach Hut can now enjoy the views from our new bench created from driftwood collected on the beach & painstakingly built by the very talented Sam during lockdown. This is the perfect spot to watch the sun go down. Thank you Sam 👏#driftwood #lockdownproject #Devon

We are delighted to hear that we are now officially allowed to reopen from 4th July! We can't wait to welcome guests - both old and new - back to Carswell Farm!

And just like that, the rain stopped & we can see for miles. St Anchorite’s Rock & Burgh Island are both looking fabulous in the afternoon sunshine & if you look closely, you can even see the iconic Art Deco Burgh Island hotel #burghisland #devon #southhams #visitdevon #holiday

Such a treat seeing this Chinook flying low over The Beach Hut cove. The fly past definitely brightened a dull day and what a noise!! #chinook #flypast #helicopter #Devon

What a treat to see this horizontal rainbow in front of The Beach Hut earlier today. 🌈 Can you also spot The Tea House ruin in the distance? Situated near our Wedding Field, it is used by many couples as the backdrop for their wedding photographs #devon #rainbow #holidaycottage

Photo from today’s lunchtime walk along @swcoastpath. This stunning coastline is a few minutes walk from all 7 of our cottages. We are keeping everything 🤞 that guests will be able to enjoy our cottages & these views again very soon #southwestcoastpath #devon #visitdevon

The view through a bedroom window of The Mews on today’s cottage check. When we’re allowed to reopen, guests will have some friendly neighbours to keep them company #cows #dairyfarm #holidaycottages #devonholidays #staycationuk #Devon #viewfrommywindow

The garden & flower borders at The Lodge are looking & smelling so beautiful in the sunshine today. After watching Gardener Suzanne’s latest #happyfriday video, we think she has the best job @CarswellCottage being able to work outside on a day like today ☀️ #gardening #Devon

[Carswell Farm Cottages @CarswellCottage]

The @swcoastpath, right on the doorstep of our holiday cottages, provides stunning walks along the beautiful south Devon coastline & we are making full use of it in this gorgeous weather today ☀️ #southwestcoastpath #walkingholiday #devon #southhams #dogfriendlyholidays #dogwalks

Our cows are on the move to fresh pasture using the lane outside 3 of our cottages (The Lodge, The Mews & Shepherds Cottage). A lovely sight on a sunny Thursday morning #workingfarm #organicdairy #devonfarms #holidaycottages #farmholidays #cowsonthemove

Tonight’s walk around the cottages included stopping to water the new flower troughs and pots at Lambside House barns. #keepingtheflowersalive #terracottapots #geraniums #splashofcolour
