Lovely little cottage very clean and very well equipped lovely garden which is secure found some lovely places to walk,to get on the moor had to walk up the road as the path way alongside the cottage was blocked by a locked gate after you went through the first field ( think that’s because of sheep in a field alongside) but it wasn’t a problem as the road is quite. Also very central for exploring the area by car would recomend visit to Dartmoor prison museum actually really interesting and for letting dogs run free Shaugh bridge is a lovely walk

Gateway to Dartmoor

This is one of those places where you think 'this is actually better than my own place'. It has a lot of character and is very convenient and clean. And Dartmoor is literally around the corner so a perfect place for those who like hiking. We stayed only 2 nights but wouldn't have mind to stay another week. Already planning to come back in spring time!

Cosy

A cosy property perfect for us as a couple and our dog. Great location to explore Dartmoor. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook in the evening. Clean and tidy. Mattress uncomfortable and probably could do with replacing. Overall we would definitely return. Thank you :)

It is terrible please stay away

I was so surprised to see such a accommodation is being offered to people to stay. It is disgusting. It is humidity. They have put the humidity machine there was not working and we could not stay. We want to stay in Travaloge hotel. And in the morning when I made a comment to the host to Julian, she said reply to my message house rule house valuationAnd then I asked her what was it? We didn’t stay we couldn’t stay because of the place. I was no reply from her and I asked for the refund and she just cancelled my booking but really it is not safe as a person to sleep in this . damp humidity and smell.

Very cosy cottage, as stated. Easily contactable host. Oven/hob showing signs of age/use. We stayed with our 2 dogs, very dog friendly accommodation. Garden 99% secure. (Little dogs could get through the gate) some of the fencing abit worn out. Bedroom and bathroom lovely. Central heating lovely. Beware of the Dartmoor weather. It rained the whole time we were there! We made good use of the cosy cottage.

Get away, breath & just relax.

Just the place to unwind. Very, very. quite with everything you could need in the cottage. Comfy bed, good shower, well equipped kitchen. The garden is enclosed so perfect to let the dogs out and not worry about them. We spent most of time walking and exploring Dartmoor with the dogs, (most places are dog friendly too) so it was great to have a lovely cottage to come back to and relax.

What a beautiful little gem, hidden away in dartmoor. Everthing you could ever need whilst remaining cosy. Log burner was a treat. Absolute silence and pitch black at night. Nothing but the sound of owls. Definitely coming back. Thank you

On the very edge of Dartmoor.

We enjoyed a pleasant three night stay here. The cottage was warm and we liked having the log burner. We appreciated the well equipped kitchen. We found the bed comfortable. It would have been nice to have a table to eat at and there is plenty of room in the lounge for one. The cottage is on the edge of Dartmoor and very near to beautiful Tavistock. beautiful Tavistock.
