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:
Had a fab week away at Melrose Cottage, it is absolutely gorgeous, very well-equipped and just like a home from home. Paula was a great host and even went out... read more of her way to help me celebrate my 30th. Would definitely recommend staying here 🙂
We loved Melrose Cottage. Well equipped, home from home. Loved the little extras; freshly baked scones with cream and jam, fresh fruit, tea and coffee, salt and pepper etc, fresh... read more flowers, toiletries in bathrooms.
Plenty to do around. The cottage is in a good location within walking distance of the town.
Easy check in via lockbox.
Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage. We would love to return, next time with our bikes.

We came down for a family wedding in Okehampton and it was the perfect place for us.
The place itself is great and I love the upside down lay... read more out, bathroom are gorgeous as is the kitchen.
We were very grateful for the scones! They were very good.
Easy to find and great communication, all good!

I stayed at Melrose cottage for just over one month with work and I can’t rate the home or Paula enough!
The house is spacious, clean with all the... read more amenities you could possibly need.
Paula went above and beyond to make sure I was ok and little meaningful things like fresh flowers on the table every Monday! The little touches that mean the most.
If I am ever in the location again I’d definitely book here!
Thank you for everything.
Our engineers stayed at Paula's property while working in the area.
We had to make a last minute booking, Paula was lovely and helpful from the start. Sorted everything... read more out within hours ready for our engineers arrival. She was very flexible and friendly.
The property was as it was described and portrayed through the photos. Our engineer's were very happy and impressed with the property.
We have marked this property for future stays in the area, would most certainly stay again.
We used Paula’s base for a week whilst our daughter was getting married at Ashridge Great Barn up the road at North Tawton.
It was lovely and a home... read more from home and just what we needed. The place is a fantastic upside down house which is just like it is in the photos. However the photo doesn’t quite do justice to the dining room - without a shadow of a doubt my personal favourite room - so bright and airy and just ‘gurt lush’ !
Paula is a wonderful host - really helpful and in the background if you need anything. And has also dotted around the place little QR codes for things around locally to do or visit. Nice little touch 👍
Would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the place as a base for a small break or holiday.
(And thank you for the little welcome offering Paula - that was a little treat and a lovely touch, thank you!!)
A great stay in a great property. Very comfortable and some great touches like tea/coffee, milk and Devonshire cream tea provided for us on arrival. A 5 minute walk into... read more Okehampton but very quiet and peaceful location.
Paula was very helpful and responsive which we appreciated.
Thanks.
Melrose Cottage is spacious, airy, well equipped and simply lovely. We are a family of 4 and had plenty of space. The cottage has everything you could need and lovely... read more welcoming treats were much appreciated . Great communication ahead of our arrival was also welcome. Highly recommend!
Hallo Paula,
vielen Dank, dass du uns dein tolles Haus zur Verfügung gestellt hast. Es war wirklich perfekt. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und während des Aufenthaltes gut entspannen... read more können.
Auch die Umgebung war perfekt, wir hatten immer etwas anderes zu erkunden. Moor und Strände sind einfach toll. In Okehampton waren wirklich alle freundlich, ob es die Besitzer des Fish and Chips Ladens Kempleyˋs waren oder aber die Menschen im Maiida. Viele Grüße!
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.
