Mrs Lewis May 2021
A beautiful cottage in a quiet location. Exceptionally clean. Very comfortable with Super Kingsize beds and new mattresses. Plenty of space to spread out. Owners very friendly and helpful. Lovely walks in the area make this a great spot for hikers with the Dartmoor Way going right past the property (but take the written instructions because the waymarkers are variable). Walkable on quiet lanes into Ashburton which is a lively small town. Highly recommend. ...

The location and standard of the cottage were truly excellent. The beds were extremely comfortable and we all slept very well. The equipment and the furnishings were all of a very high standard and it is obvious that the owners (who are so lovely and very helpful) have put in a lot of time and thought into renovating and decorating the cottage. The hot tub was the icing on the cake and was perfect for relaxing in after a day of sightseeing. The views are gorgeous! The local town of Ashburton is delightful and has all necessary amenities and more. We cannot wait to come again!...

Lovely quiet location, with easy access to the brilliant fish deli, butcher and baker in Ashburton. Beautiful garden and view. The house is lovingly put together, and highly recommended.
