We had a fantastic stay at The Shippen. The accommodation was lovely and spacious. The kitchen was very well equipped and the refreshments provided on our arrival were a lovely surprise and very much enjoyed. Beds were incredibly comfy. The hot tub was amazing and we were lucky enough to have some clear nights star gazing whilst relaxing in it. Our dogs loved the garden and sleeping in front of the open fire. The hosts were lovely and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be back. A great location to explore Dartmoor and the coast in a peaceful location....

We had lovely week staying at The Shippen, if you prefer to be slightly off the beaten track this property is perfect, still within easy reach of the coast and Dartmoor. It has a lovely cottage feel, Log Fire etc and well kitted out.

Great accommodation and loved the hot tub.
Miss Cowen April 2025
Enjoyed a lovely family holiday here over the Easter weekend. Sitting in the hot tub on Easter Sunday watching rabbits play in the daffodils at the bottom of the garden was simply magical. And it's wonderfully dog-friendly too - the dogs had a wonderful time running around the garden when the sun came out. The beds are super comfy and its amazing that they are all zip and link as it means everyone can enjoy a spacious super king. Cannot recommend more - location and setting is simply stunning and wonderfully easy to get to. Cannot wait to return!...

Great cottage and great location. Views from the garden are amazing. Local Take-Aways and Pub Food really good, plenty to choose from and lots of places to visit nearby. You'll have the best night's sleep due to the lovely beds.
