Bowden Croft

Tucked into the rolling South Hams countryside, Bowden Croft is a beautifully restored period property dating back to 1820 — once part of the neighbouring Georgian manor estate.

With 2 bedrooms, immaculate gardens, and your own private tennis court, it’s the kind of place where long mornings stretch into lazy afternoons. Just a mile from Blackpool Sands and Slapton Beach, you’re never far from golden sand and coastal walks.

Wake to the stillness of the South Devon countryside — rolling hills, birdsong, and the kind of peace that only comes from being truly away from it all.

Originally built as the annexe to a Georgian manor dating back to 1720, Bowden Croft is steeped in history yet effortlessly comfortable. Period character meets modern luxury, with every detail designed for relaxed, unhurried stays.

Step outside and you’re surrounded by the best of the South Hams. Dartmouth is just a few miles away — all cobbled streets, boutique shops, waterside cafés and boats bobbing in the harbour. And with Blackpool Sands and Slapton Beach both within a mile, the coast is never far.

Whether you’re gathering with family or escaping with friends, this is the kind of place that brings people back — year after year.

Reviews of Bowden Croft

We had a wonderful holiday thanks.  The croft could not have been more beautiful, everything inside was of top quality and seemed hardly used. Our hosts were delightful too. The booking experience was seamless, many thanks.

A glorious stay in an exceptionally beautiful part of the world. The Croft really ia a sanctuary- everything we could have wanted for! The hospitality was very generous, the gardens magical and the wild garlic nearby very tasty! With my thanks and we hope to see you again soon

What a lovely spot! Bowden Croft is a very comfortable, elegant annex, with everything we needed for a relaxing break, whilst only a 15 minute to the lovely bay of Blackpool Sands. I would also like to say thank you to Coastal Living Holidays as Charlotte was very helpful and quick to answer email/texts and we appreciated the interactive "touch stay" information, as well as the recommendations for things to do, places to eat and areas to explore.

Booking was easy through Coastal Living Holidays and there was lots of additional information provided about the area which was useful. Our hosts, Clive and Annie, were very friendly and encouraged us to explore their beautiful garden and the wood beyond it. Bowden Croft is spacious, homely and very comfortable with everything you’d expect to be in a holiday cottage – and some things you wouldn’t. They left us a lovely welcome pack with homemade produce and a bottle of wine which was very generous. Some very interesting books too. We have a hybrid car and access to a car charger was very helpful (and not yet a common fixture

We had a great week at Bowden Croft. The house is lovely - spacious, well furnished, immaculately kept and very comfortable. The woods, streams gardens and deep quiet around the house made it feel quite magical. I especially enjoyed sitting outside in the morning listening to the birds and then going for a walk along the narrow tree lined lanes down to Blackpool Beach. There is an excellent cafe there where you can sit outside and have coffee and breakfast. If there is a better way to start the day I don't know what it is. The hosts were warm, friendly and very helpful. One of the best experiences we have had renting a house in the UK.
