Burrator Cottage Reviews

We had a fantastic stay at Gitcombe Estate and stayed in Burrator Cottage in October half term 2022. The facilities were very clean, up to date and smart. We couldnt have asked for more with small children with us, there were stair gates and high chairs provided and an outdoor play area which was safe and modern. All facilities such as the swimming pool and soft play area were clean and tidy, it was little touches which we thought made it top quality. The grounds were kept tidy and smart with friendly site staff and cleaners. I would definitely recommend staying here and were already looking at coming back in the future. A huge thank you and for all the information before arriving was extremely helpful. Laura & Ed Sykes
