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.

The cottage is clean, well equipped and and spacious. We feel right at home as soon as we arrived.
Paula is very responsive and all the information that is provided is clear and concise.
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!
I can’t rate Paula’s place highly enough. She is an amazing and understanding host. Goes beyond standard and into high end. The annex apartment is to a very high spec... read more far higher than you expect. When was the last time you had 300+ thread count sheets and knives could skin crocodiles in an air bnb, let alone solid oak doors, sky light views and thick fresh towels? I need to know what fabric cleaner you use is it amazing even on day 3 I could still smell the cleanliness. Paula went out of her way to accommodate me and my family when we screwed up our arrival day. A gracious attentive host. Definitely definitely coming back asap! Thank you Paula!! Love The Keeling’s young, old and in between! Xxxx
We had a great stay with Paula, the house was just as described and perfect for a weeks stay. We only met Paula briefly in person, but her communication help... read more and advice were all excellent! Would stay again.
We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was lovely and clean and had everything you needed. The living space was fantastic and well designed. The welcome cream tea and flowers... read more were a lovely touch. Paula was easy to contact and gave great instructions. The cottage is an easy walk to Okehampton, which has some great restaurants. Also a great spot to visit Dartmoor and beyond. The EV charging was an added bonus. We would recommend it as a place to stay and would happily visit again. The only thing to be aware of, is the drive is quite tight if you have a larger vehicle.
What an amazing place to stay. All the extra special touches made it very homely. Okehampton is a beautiful place with lots to see and do. Would highly recommend Melrose... read more Cottage to everyone.
