  • "A very nice location for exploring Dartmoor."

    Easy to get to Plymouth & Tavistock. Quiet place to stay with private parking on the owners driveway. Shops & petrol station only a 1 mile drive away in Yelverton. The cottage was very well equipped. We were provided with bread, milk, eggs & butter on arrival. The owners are really welcoming & friendly. Would stay again.

  • "I really enjoyed my stay in Little Claremont."

    It was a granny annex so is very well appointed for all kitchenware and storage space in the bedroom. The owners Martin and Lynn were friendly and helpful with their own 2 dogs so they were so considerate about my dog Hettie. Great location in village on Dartmoor with plenty of National Trust places to visit and gorgeous walks. A particular favourite of mine just 5 mins drive away was Burrator Reservoir. Park in Quarry and go up over the top away from the road, Sublime views over moors and reservoir. Also a must for dogs is Lydford and Teign Gorges the latter near Castle Drogo which is also worth a visit.

  • "We had a lovely stay!"

    Martin & Lynn are very friendly and helpful, perfect hosts! Cottage had everything we needed, and the hosts left us bread, butter, milk eggs and teabags, thank you! Had a good meal with family at The Rock and visited a couple of National Trust properties while we were there. Tavistock is a nice little town well worth a visit. All in all a very enjoyable few days.

  • "The owner, Martin, was very welcoming and helpful."

    Milk, tea bags and eggs were left for us. The night storage heaters kept the place warm. My only problem was that the bed was too hard for my comfort.

The property

Yelverton 1.2 miles.

Little Claremont is a delightful annex settled into the tranquil outskirts of Dousland, ideal for a couple looking to explore Devon and the fantastic Dartmoor National Park.

Park off-road and be welcomed into a property with a homely sitting/dining space, an ideal spot for enjoying a romantic meal for two, before snuggling up in the sitting area to enjoy a movie marathon or to make the most of the books and games available.

The kitchen is well stocked with a great variety of home-from-home amenities, allowing guests to cook up a storm.

When sleep calls, freshen up in the shower room, before cosying up for the night in the double bedroom, a characterful space with loads of storage for all of your belongings.

A charming aspect of the cottage is the garden, a great little suntrap with a selection of furniture, overlooked by mature trees and shrubs, and a fantastic location for an alfresco affair.

Dousland is a quaint village housing a local pub, The Burrator Inn.

Travel to Yelverton for more amenities and eateries, or head out to explore the stunning scenery of the Dartmoor National Park, with sites to visit including Combstone Tor, Spitchwick, Foggintor Quarry and Roos Tor.

The property is in a fantastic location for cycling enthusiasts.

The 21 mile-long cycling and walking route, Drakes trail, runs through Yelverton and links nearby Tavistock and Plymouth sweeping through wooded valleys and open moorland.

Nearby attractions include Buckland Abbey, The Garden House and Burrator Reservoir.

The South Devon coast is within easy reach for day trips to Salcombe and the pretty riverside village of Newton Ferrers makes a memorable day out, topped off with tea and cake in a local cafe.

The naval port of Plymouth can also be easily reached, housing picturesque cobbled streets lined with a wonderful selection of restaurants and bars.

Make a couples escape to remember with a stay at Little Claremount.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
