A Much Needed Quiet Retreat
Really well equipped dog friendly house. My son and I were performing at the festival and it was a short drive into Sidmouth and a perfect oasis to recuperate after a day dancing. Some fabulous local walks and great pubs serving great food and ale. We will be hoping to return sometime in the future.

Perfect
The bungalow has everything you could possibly want. Very thoughtful touches awaited us on our arrival - flowers, wine, chocolates. Jacqui was great at answering any questions I had and went out of her way to ensure my Mum and I had a lovely stay. It's the perfect place to stay to explore Devon and Dorset. We loved it. Thank you Jacqui.

"Oh we do like to be beside the Donkeys"
Couldn't have wished for a better place to say! Peaceful, clean, literally home from home. Owners paid attention to every detail, including dog feeding and water bowl. There were full instructions for anything mechanical in the property, the beds and bedding were top notch and decor was cleverly thought out too. It's 5 minutes to the Donkey Sanctuary (what a treat), it's impossible to stay in the property and not visit. A car is a must to visit all the places and eateries the Owners have recommended, the list is comprehensive suggesting places for every budget. All in all any visitor won't be disappointed!

About the host

Hosted by Garry and Jacqui Reason

Host profile image
We bought this cottage because we love the location and regularly spend time here getting away from it all. It is an incredibly relaxing place. We both work hard and this is our bolt hole. We have 2 daughters, a cat and dog (called Moose) who also enjoys the walks around the area, be it on the many paths in and around the Donkey Sanctuary or along the coastal path to our favourite local pub, the Fountainhead (great food, drink and atmosphere!)

Why they chose this property

When our kids were younger we had many holidays in the area, sometimes with several families from our village and we have always felt drawn back. From the stunning views and fresh air from walking along the SW coastal path to the exceptionally friendly and quaint nature of Sidmouth it has so much to offer all the family. The Jurassic coast beaches are fabulous and the grass tennis courts in Sidmouth were always a fun way to spend time with each other. That is why we bought Kokopelli and why we keep coming back.

Kokopelli is a character we came across on a holiday in Moab, Utah in the USA. Moab is a beautiful area with fantastic canyons, rock formations and vibrant colours. It is an amazing place to enjoy many outdoor activities cycling, hiking, climbing, rafting. The key ingredient being fun and adventure and we hope these are just a couple of things you experience during your stay. (By the way Kokopelli was an ancient American Indian God of love, music and laughter and represents the spirit of music!)

What makes this property unique

Peaceful, safe, great open grassy space for adults and children to play outside and on the far edge of Stoneleigh Village so the cottage is not overlooked and enjoys a private aspect.
We have good WiFi which is not available in many other cottages.We take great pride in our cottage and make sure it is equipped with everything you need from pots and pans to picnic chairs.

It is next door to the Donkey Sanctuary which is a delightful place to wander round. It has so many paths to explore around the fields where the donkeys enjoy their time with each other.
A great cooked English breakfast is available at the donkey sanctuary if you don't feel like cooking !

It is a fabulous centre for so many activities if you wish to explore further afield, whether you enjoy hiking, sailing playing on the beach, bird watching, adventure parks, folk festivals (Sidmouth's festival is legendary!)
