Millbrook Sea at The Millbrook Inn - Self-catering cottage in Devon

Local points of interest from Caitlin Owens:

• We like to talk about The Millbrook Inn as being between Land and Sea. We have a unique setting, ambience and culture that sits between the idyllic rural and the rugged maritime. Each of our cottages celebrates one half of our culture.
• All of the taps at The Millbrook Inn come from small, independent brewers from within Devon. The smallest and most independent of them all is Auld Jolene, our homemade cider made with the apples picked by hand from our own organic, ancient cider orchards.
• The Millbrook's head chef likes to be known as Big Smoke, and there isn't much that comes off our family farm that he hasn't tried smoking or barbecuing. Whatever the season, there's bound to be some outdoor cooking action to watch from your window.
• We are less than 15 minutes from many varied beaches. Choose East Portlemouth for soft golden sand and clear, safe water, Rickham or Lannacombe for wild Atlantic swells and Great Mattiscombe for massive sunsets and multiple seal colonies.
• Staying in South Pool is sure to set your inner tidal clock. The village operates to a different, more elemental rhythm, with the tide defining walking and driving routes, ferries, pub events and beaches. You'll find yourself perfectly tuned in no time.
• Venture to Totnes for vintage boutiques, market, craft breweries and top coffee, or across to Dartmouth, an old naval port complete with castle, assorted ferries, a steam train and antique shops of military curiosities. And fish and chips, as you'd expect.
