Melrose Cottage is located on Station Road in Okehampton. At one end of the road lies Dartmoor, with access (about ten minutes walk away) for hiking, biking and exploring. At the other end of the road (about five minutes walk away) is the centre of Okehampton, boasting numerous pubs, coffee shops, restaurants, supermarkets, a cinema and other amenities.
Melrose Cottage itself is nestled away, set back from the road in a quiet location, with plentiful off-street parking. Secure bike storage is available.
Upstairs is an open-plan living space, with a stunning bright conservatory dining room, a modern, well-equipped kitchen and a living area to relax with a coffee and magazine or watch a bit of telly. A small balcony can be accessed from the living room. The entire space benefits from high ceilings and is awash with natural light.
Downstairs, you have a spacious king size master bedroom, a double bedroom and a single bedroom. There is a larger bathroom with a bath (including shower over the bath), in case you want to have a relaxing soak after your Devon adventures. There is also another, smaller bathroom with a shower.
Melrose Cottage is family friendly. For those with younger children, travel cots, high chairs, stair gate, and plastic cutlery and crockery can be provided.
Unfortunately the property is not suitable for dogs (although we do love them and have our own) – sorry about that.

BOOKING INFORMATION:
Wonderfully decorated place with all amenities provided. The welcome gift of scones and fruit was a nice surprise! Highly recommended.
This was our 2nd visit to Paula’s beautiful cottage. The stunning conversion is extremely comfortable, very well equipped, spotlessly clean - basically perfect.
The EV charger was an extra... read more plus this time.
Paula couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly, responding quickly to any enquiries, arranging for bath towels to be brought round in no time (an understandable oversight- there was nothing else missing or wanted).
An absolutely lovely stay. We will be back for a third time as soon as we can.
This is a beautifully put together place! Plenty of space for sleeping and living in the upside down house. Lots of little finishing touches. Fluffy towels, plenty of storage... read more and I loved that full size toiletries were available in the bathrooms! The kitchen had everything we could need and the host even left some scones with jam and cream.
Location is excellent; easy walk into town, next to the park and just a short walk up the hill into the wild Dartmouth NP.
An excellent property - we’d fully recommend! Thank you for a lovely stay.
We spent a weekend in Paula's cottage to visit family and it was amazing! Paula was so helpful with all of the relevant information, it was easy to find thanks... read more to her simple directions, and the cottage has everything you could need. We had a toddler with us and the facilities provided more than met the needs of him (stair gate, kids cutlery, x2 high chairs, bed set up ready). Plenty of information available about the surrounding area provided as well. Thank you!
Melrose Cottage was more than just a place to sleep. Paula thought of everything. From scones & fruit to shampoo and frying pans. This place has just about everything... read more you need. We loved walking into Okehampton and found several walking trails just around the corner. The train station is also close: just about a 5 minute walk. We loved the location and were able to take day trips to Lands End, Exeter, Mousehole and Clovelly. This cottage was perfect in every way!
Amazing accommodation in a perfect location for exploring Dartmoor. Everything you need within walking distance. Easy to find using the clear instructions provided by the host. I would have... read more no hesitation in recommending to anyone planning to visit the area.
