We had a lovely week in Old Forge Cottage. The cottage is in a lovely, quiet location. The eggs and cake on arrival were lovely touches and we enjoyed them! We explored Devon and Cornwall and the cottage was in a good spot for both.

We had the most wonderful week at this property. If you are after total relaxation in an idyllic spot by a working water wheel and within a stones throw of a beautiful river and walks in all directions then this is the property for you. The property is very spacious and everything and more you could need has been provided. Two outdoor spaces at front and back so you can maximise the sunshine from morning to evening. A very cosy living room with comfy sofas and a woodburner. Ideally placed for adventures of all kinds, yet many walks from the door and a village with good village shop etc only a 10 minute walk along the river. The property is so full of character, it was like staying in a modernised, well maintained National Trust property with garden views to match! I highly recommend this property and it was thoroughly enjoyed by our family of three plus our cockerpoo who thought she was in heaven with daily river swims, long walks and trips to Dartmoor/ Plymouth in easy reach. A little slice of heaven in Devon! ...

A beautiful setting and great location giving access to moors and coast. We kept to the beaches on the western side, Bantham, Bigbury, Mothecombe and Wembury to avoid the bigger crowds and traffic. Lovely to walk to village along river, only 10-15 minutes. Locals do swim in the calm side of the river away from the rapids. Village store and deli, pub okay and the Station House Cafe/bar/ restaurant perfect. Plenty of walks for those who don't want to use a car , peaceful setting for lazing, but easy to access the A38 for days out. Upstairs beds comfortable, downstairs probably more suitable for children. 11 year old loved the mezzanine configuration. Having three bathrooms was wonderful for our group! ...

Old Forge Cottage is in a great location, close to Dartmoor for walking and has a lovely garden. A sweet place to stay.

Lovely cottage, very spacious and clean, in beautiful surroundings. 2 possibilities to sit outside. Dartmoor on your doorstep. Very nice owners: always helpful, a home-baked cake and a basket with fresh eggs from their own chickens, homemade jam and crackers at arrival. Free to move in their garden. The best cottage we've ever been to, highly recommended....
