Tubs Cottage, our home away from home in the village of Kingsteignton.
We have sought to equip our home to a high standard and to anticipate your needs by providing all the things you might want for a luxurious stay. Egyptian cotton towels and bedding are provided as standard. We love food, and hope you enjoy the small cookbook library and the well-stocked kitchen.
Tubs has lovely local pubs within walking distance, along with the joys of the coast at either Shaldon or Teignmouth.
Kingsteignton was founded in the early eighth century as the centre of a vast Saxon estate between Teignmouth and Manaton, it was a key settlement providing rich pickings for Danish raiders who came in 1001.
Kingsteignton is situated at the head of the Teign estuary, the village is the long-established centre of the clay industry.
Medieval prosperity funded the re-building of the parish church in the 15th Century, its 85 ft tower being constructed in the 1480s. From the medieval period to the mid-19th Century the parish church held an important position as the mother church of Highweek and Newton Bushell.
Tubs Cottage is a grade 2 listed structure, built around 1450.
