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.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Paula's place. Paula is an exceptional host, very responsive and welcoming. The home made scones were delicious.
We felt right at home, the house... read more and beds very comfortable.
After staying in a lot of Airbnb's over a month, my husband was very grateful for the upside layout as he didn't have to cart suitcases up any stairs.
We would definately stay again, thankyou Paula.

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!

Great place! All to the highest standard and exceptionally well appointed with everything you could ask for in an AirBnB - even including tea/coffee/milk and CAKE(!) on arrival. Perfect place... read more for our party of 2 couples using this as base camp for coast-to-coast cycle ride. Paula was always responsive and helpful. Highly recommended.

Melrose Cottage in Okehampton was so comfortable and convenient for our visit to Devon and Dartmoor National park! Paula was so nice. As soon as we booked we... read more received a message from her saying we could ask anything about arrangements and local things to do. As we were from out of the country, we had some concerns about whether our transit from London could be affected by rail strikes and she provided helpful website for us to monitor the situation. When we arrived, there was a welcoming plate of scones on the counter with clotted cream and jam in the refrigerator. Only regret was that we were so busy touring the area that we didn't have much time to spend relaxing in this lovely place.
