Didworthy House

Sleeps 12 + 3 cots in 3 properties | 4.5 miles SW of Buckfastleigh

 
The open-air heated pool has lovely views from the terrace.

Didworthy House is found in the hamlet of the same name, deep within the Dartmoor National Park, in an outstandingly beautiful area. Set in gorgeous grounds with several sheltered spots, this is an elegant Victorian house with extensive views to the high moors beyond. In two wings of the main house (to the left in the photograph), the three apartments are arranged around a small inner courtyard. From the moment you arrive to find a mouth-watering cream tea on the table, your welcome is assured. The Owners do their best to make sure you have a wonderful holiday, from arranging delivery of fresh organic vegetable boxes and free-range eggs from the Owners’ chickens (at cost), to numerous other activities available locally – horse riding, fishing, golf, cycling, walking the moors or clay pigeon shooting. Another attraction is the outdoor heated swimming pool (available between 10am to 12pm and 4pm to 6pm) from July until end-August (please supervise children at all times). Close to Totnes and a short drive from the beaches of south Devon, these lovely apartments have something to offer all ages and tastes. As there is poor mobile reception, an on site telephone coin-box is provided.
