Once part of a larger farmstead, this charming stone-built wing is now a holiday home with rustic character and charm and its own, private fenced garden with views towards Dartmoor.

The cottage was lovely, peaceful and rural.
Dr Robinson, Banbury, September 2011
We were impressed by our hosts, their friendliness and their willingness to let our son help with little chores, such as feeding the chickens! This is definitely a place we would go back to and it is in a stunning location.
Mrs Smyth, Northampton, August 2011
The cottage and its surroundings were out of this world. We were ideally located to access the coast and the gorgeous countryside. We have stayed in many properties over the years and this by far was the best and we would definitely book it again. Our hosts were lovely and made us feel extremely welcome and at home. Super!
Mrs Allen, Grantham, August 2011
One of the best cottages we have stayed in. Clean and comfortable with every facility. A lovely garden and great views. The owners were very friendly, caring and helpful. Ideally placed for exploring both North and South Devon as well as Dartmoor. A day trip to the Eden Project in Cornwall was easily achieved. Highly recommended. We hope to return. Thank you for a lovely holiday.
