Sweetcombe Cottage Holidays is a locally based self-catering agency focusing on East Devon. Established over 35 years ago with just a handful of cottages, the company has grown to the point where we now successfully market a wide variety of properties throughout the region. From the start we were determined to build up a reputation for offering only the best of properties. The company has grown, but everyone involved still holds true to the combination of commitment and professionalism that is the foundation of the company's success. Family run to this day, we are still able to offer that personal service which sadly in today's ever increasing pace of life can sorely fall by the wayside.

Famous as the birth place of Sir Walter Raleigh, East Budleigh is a wonderfully preserved village which was already well established at the time of the Norman Conquest in 1066 and is two miles south of Budleigh Salterton. We have a selection of East Budleigh holiday cottages where you can experience how it feels to live like a local in this pretty Devon village. It has excellent village inns, tea rooms, a garage and stores. The pretty village of Colaton Raleigh lies nestled between the lovely River Otter valley and the wider open spaces of Woodbury common.
