Town: If you thought Sheffield was all about stainless steel then think again. Sheffield is the UK's fourth largest city and one of the greenest cities in Europe with gardens, parks and lots of wide open spaces and to top it all the Peak District National Park is on the doorstep. This vibrant city has a lively arts, crafts and culture scene and is home to the iconic Crucible Theatre. In fact Sheffield has the largest theatre complex outside London offering both in-house productions and touring shows. The Millenium Gallery is the city's premier place for art, craft and design showcasing Sheffield's amazing heritage alongside contemporary design. The Winter Garden is one of the largest temperate glasshouses to be built during the last hundred years in the UK. This impressive, multi-award-winning building houses a stunning collection of over 2,500 plants from around the world. Located in the centre of the UK, Sheffield is such an accessible city and, once there, getting around is fun if you hop on and off the super tram which takes you around the city and beyond. Why not hop on a super tram from the city centre and visit Meadowhall, one of Europe's largest shopping malls? Foodies will love the city with its great selection of independent restaurants, well known eateries and lots of coffee shops serving tempting freshly baked cakes and pastries.

We are really pleased that you enjoyed your stay and in particular the facilities we have on site. Come back soon.
Lovely spot. Local roads can be interesting, so be prepared for lots of country roads just big enough for one. Found a small family of frogs outside in the courtyard - they come out at night. Baby birds nesting in the lot too (or next doors).

Glad to hear that you enjoyed the location despite the narrow lanes, which are a key feature of the South Hams. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
Well appointed property, fantastic location and great facilities on-site. Reasonable parking in courtyard a little way from the property. Only slight downside was intermittent broadband, which was only a problem for our group due multiple individuals to trying to work during our stay. Have booked again for next year

Iris Cottage was beautiful. So peaceful and surrounded by stunning country side.
Set in the beautiful Devon countryside the property was lovely. Lots to do for the children, they loved the pool and the games room. Plenty of space for a family to have an amazing holiday.

We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay so much and hope you will return soon.
Info pack from the landlord was fantastic, gave all the info that made the stay enjoyable. Amazing location close enough to be convenient to local amenities but remote enough to be quiet. Would stay again.
