"This is a delightful cottage on the very edge of Dartmoor, with stunning views and access to the moors from the end of the drive."
The cottage is quite simple but adequate for 4 adults. The kitchen was well enough equipped that self-catering was possible, although it is a little tight for storage space. We really appreciated the 'rustic' conservatory - a really nice space with access to a small courtyard garden. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

"A lovely cottage, nice and secluded, with great views, and despite being on a working farm, it was very quiet and private."
Superb location for walking or cycling around Dartmoor as well as visiting National Trust sites, or other areas of interest, in South Devon. Buckfast Abbey, just a few miles away, is a must-visit! We had a thoroughly great week.

"We had a wonderful stay at Forestoke LInhay, and definitely hope to go there again."
The cottage is simple, but very warm and comfortable, and we very much enjoyed being there. Margaret is extremely helpful and welcoming, but without being over-present, the kitchen is very well equipped, and everything was straightforward to use. And the view from the kitchen and upper bedroom window - it's a wonder I managed to detach myself! Lovely place - we'll be back.

"The cottage is lovely inside."
It’s certainly big enough for four people. Excellent and secluded court yard garden. Ideal for remote get away and walking across Dartmoor. The moor is literally at the gate. Be prepared though for a cramped bathroom and challenging plumbing. The bed mattress is very soft. Overall a lovely place it doesn’t feel like your next to a working farm the views from every window are stunningly.

In need of some maintenance work with regards to taps needing new washers and repair work needed on the conservatory but this would not stop us from returning as soon as we can.

"It is a beautifully situated cottage with great views from the main bedroom and kitchen window."
Its great asset is immediate access to Dartmoor, 100 yards from the back door. The cottage is very comfortable, the wood-burner functions perfectly. A stand-up shower in the bathroom could be a useful addition, but we managed quite well without one.

"Nicely secluded and private cottage, although I never met the owner physically we spoke on the phone a couple of times and she seemed very nice also leaving a cake for when we arrived and bottle of milk."
I wouldn't recommend the cottage to anyone with mobility issues as bath could be a little difficult to get in and out off with no real shower facility.
The double bed could also be a little firmer, I am ok as I can sleep on anything, but my wife found it uncomfortable, however my son found his bed super comfy.
Generally roads are super narrow, but lovely beaches & little towns.

The converted barn cottage has its own walled garden, with plenty of greenery; very peaceful.
For views of the area, and of the lovely landscaped gardens belonging to the farmhouse, you have windows from the ground floor and upper floor bedroom.

"Clean cottage in excellent location."
Only yards from the Dartmoor National Park.
Two things that need mentioning, not suitable for people with disabilities or issues with walking, two sets of stairs to enter either side of the property are what you would expect in the country as they fit in with the cottage, but not very safe especially if wet.
Also the hand shower is only suitable for hair washing and not using as a shower.

"The cottage was comfortable, clean and in a prime position for seeing all that Dartmoor offers."
Two niggles and the first could easily be rectified. The lighting in the lounge/living area was very poor making it very difficult to read, this was especially regrettable as tv consisted mainly of football/tennis during our visit. Improved lighting is needed.
The second which would be impossible to improve, but I believe should be made clear is the bathing problem. The ceiling is too low to shower although the information did say there was a hand shower. I think it should be made clear that it is not possible to stand to take a shower.
The bird/wildlife in the garden was a joy to watch and a real treat.
