  • "An absolute gem!"

    We had an absolutely perfect 7-night stay at Harescombe Lodge and cannot recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, Tamzin & Chris (not forgetting Lucy) were super friendly, incredibly welcoming, and made us feel right at home. The lodge itself is fantastic and had everything you could possibly need for a comfortable, stress-free holiday—the attention to detail was exceptional. 360 degree views from every window with views from the garden and the balcony stretching across to Dartmoor…simply breath-taking. We had a 5/5 experience and will definitely look to return. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

    Thank you so much for your kind words and it is so appreciated and it was an absolute pleasure to meet you both. We hope to see you again one day! Property Owner
