We had such a lovely, peaceful stay at The Dell. The shepherd’s hut was beautiful and perfectly equipped with everything we needed. Communication with Paul, the owner, was fantastic — he really went above and beyond to help us, which we hugely appreciated. We enjoyed a lovely walk recommended by Paul, and the pubs in the local village are brilliant. The hot tub was perfect, spotlessly clean and very well maintained. We would absolutely come and stay again. Thank you so much!...

Just got back from a fabulous stay at the Dell (family with 2 adults, a 12 yo and a 15 yo) Location was perfect for trips to Salcombe, Dartmouth and Totnes. Beds were really comfy. Kitchen had everything we needed. Hot tub was great. Cooking on the fire outside with marshmallows after was fun for the children. Space to run around in, great walks on your doorstep. Hosts were friendly. Cannot recommend this place highly enough for a break away from it all....

Great location. Walks directly from the hut although we were only there for a short break so we decided to use the car. The hut is a beautiful bespoke hut in a quiet area. So nice to lie in the hot tub listening to the owls. Privately set with plenty of seating area around the hut and in the lower area around the barbecue. Comfortable settee and large table inside if the weather is not so kind. Lovely spacious shower and comfortable bed. Friendly welcome from the owner. Felt very spoilt with the hot tub. Slapton is a pretty village and the nature reserve was lovely which you can walk along. We ate out at the Crickets Inn at Beesands and had a really nice meal. We also walked from Beesands to Start Point lighthouse and back which was a stunning walk along the coast path....
