Lovely barn and gardens. Safe for the dog. Well maintained and well equipped and very comfortable. A very peaceful location. Excellent walk down to the river . Lots to do in the surrounding area - country parks, the seaside, Dartmoor. Also the local pubs serve excellent food ….. the Manor Inn and the Cridford Inn. Would recommend…. It was just perfect. ...

Rydon was a beautiful house in a stunning location. It felt like a home away from home. Beds comfy, beautiful roll top baths! Alison was very friendly and welcoming. The pool was enjoyed by all the family. Lots of things to see in the area. A particular shout out to Canonteign falls- utterly gorgeous and only a 10 minute drive. Haldon forest was lovely for young kids. ...
