I would highly recommend Willow Rest to larger groups - there's plenty of space to play games, enjoy the outside area, pool and hot tub, cook and eat together. It's a beautifully renovated and decorated which all adds to the pleasure of being there. The area is great for easy trips to Totnes and Darmouth and there's plenty of scenic countryside and great coastal walks nearby. You can't go wrong!...

Everything about our stay was amazing. A wonderful property in an amazing part of the world. Everyone in our party of 10 enjoyed the stay - young children, parents and grand parents! The pool and hot tub were enjoyed every day, play area for the kids all wonderfully maintained. Plenty of space in the property for family feasts and games. Spacious for quiet times too. EV charges for the cars were also used. Spoke to Raymond before our stay and was greeted with goodies in a welcome hamper. Met Raymond a couple of times during the stay in passing, and is a lovely, welcoming host....

Willow's Rest was the perfect location for our family gathering. Each part of the house was beautifully presented with all rooms furnished to a high standard - the main kitchen and living area was just stunning! The house was impeccably clean and provided us with everything that we could possibly need. Having the swimming pool and hot tub was a fantastic bonus and was thoroughly enjoyed by all. The surrounding grounds, set in glorious Devon countryside, were not only well-maintained but also wonderfully peaceful. Raymond welcomed us on arrival to check all was well and was extremely helpful. We would have no hesitation in recommending this property unreservedly and would love to return again at some point in the future....

Willows Rest is a gorgeous home with beautiful interiors. It is much larger than it looks in the photo’s and there was ample room for our group of 10. The swimming pool, hot tub and fire pit was a big hit with the kids ! The kitchen was well equipped and the bedrooms were all really lovely and comfortable. Raymond the owner, was very helpful and made us feel very welcome. It is in a great location for exploring Devon’s beautiful beaches and towns. We had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend. ...

We had an wonderful holiday at Willows Rest, we were a group of 12 adults, from 57 years - 22 years plus 2 babies. The attention to detail with both the decor and facilities meant that we we were all instantly relaxed. We loved the pool and thoroughly enjoyed the grounds - even the grumpy goats warmed to us eventually! We visited Totnes, Blackpool Sands (the food in the cafe here was outstanding) and Bantham Beach and would recommend all of them. We arranged for a supermarket shop to be delivered on the day of arrival but then enjoyed the local produce from Bens Farm Shop and other independents in Totnes. We would recommend this house to anyone wishing to relax and re-charge. ...
