The Shippon is a beautifully appointed, immaculately clean cottage with a well equipped kitchen and dog friendly garden and field. The owners (who live next door) are incredibly hospitable if needed, but otherwise afford guests privacy. It’s back gate leads directly onto the Moors without going onto the road. Lovely and warm inside (during a cold spell). Sustainable ethos. A perfect retreat in every way....

If you want to explore Dartmoor, this is the cottage for you. We loved it and so did the dogs. Steve is a great host, full of information and great walk tips. Hopefully we'll return in 2024.

Magnificent conversion quality and layout. We really cannot find anything of which to be critical. We enjoyed a couple of warm autumn days that tempted us to the garden table at the top of the garden to eat and take in the setting. The views locally are great and access to this part of Dartmoor opened up areas we had not visited in years of using other cottages. So, mix in with that the really lovely owners and the package is complete. We have already boooked in for next year's autumn....
