We’ve been raising the standards of self catering holidays since 1977.
Our family ethos
Tony and Clare Tregoning started the business back in 1977 and their dedication to quality and excellence is at the heart of everything we do. Tony is sadly no longer with us, but we still adhere to their original ethos of finding holiday homes we would like to stay in and have slowly grown the company to find the best picks of properties across the counties. Plus Clare still drops in to keep us on our toes.
As an independent, family-run company, we wouldn’t expect you to stay anywhere we wouldn’t want to stay ourselves. And we’re pretty picky. We want you to walk into your handpicked holiday home and say ‘wow’, sit back and relax.
A few days amongst the wilds of Dartmoor will revive your senses, blow away the cobwebs and generally make you feel better. Especially when you have the luxury of a holiday cottage to return to at the end of the day. Cosy up in accommodation that meets your every need on a short break to remember.
Spring and Autumn Short Breaks on Dartmoor
Spring like a lamb over the moorlands in the sunny off peak seasons. Dartmoor is great walking country and the weather in Spring and Autumn is much more reliable and pleasant. Not too hot, not too cool, you can bring your pooch and stay at a dog-friendly holiday cottage and make the most of the great outdoors with a short break weekend stay.
Summer Short Breaks on Dartmoor
Dartmoor is a sensation in summer and a few days away lets you stride out and discover a beautiful landscape of greenery and panoramic views. Stop off at watering holes along the way and collapse back in the luxury of your holiday cottage after a long day's exploring in the sunshine.
Christmas Short Breaks in Dartmoor
Hunker down in a cosy cottage on Dartmoor for a magical Christmas like something out of the movies. Gather loved ones together in a rural retreat and enjoy festivities out on the moors for a few days away.
New Year Short Breaks in Dartmoor

Winter Short Breaks in Dartmoor
Warm yourself up this winter by striding out over the moors, wrapped up against the winds as you stand atop a tor and survey the frosty panorama. A winter short break on Dartmoor is all about that cosy toes feeling in front of the fire so pick a perfect property complete with open fire and Aga to dry out socks and damp dogs too.
We have 36 holiday cottages on Dartmoor perfect for a few days' respite.
