  • "Neil and Elizabeth were the perfect hosts, when arriving they recommended local places to eat supermarkets etc,."

    They let us know they were on hand if we needed anything which was lovely other then that they left us to enjoy our stay :) We absolutely loved our stay here at Nelli lodge. We have stayed in a couple of lodges and this is easily the best one we have stayed in, in terms of how spacious it is for a lodge, the facilities and the high standard the lodge has been done. The place was immaculate has amazing views with allocated parking at the side of the lodge. The garden is secure for doggies too. The local pub does amazing food. The hot tub is perfect for soaking in after a day of exploring the beautiful spots of Devon. Would highly recommend would definitely return. Eoin Jade &Gigi

    It’s the perfect location for exploring so many wonderful places. The lodge has been very well thought out and every little detail thought about…we even had scones to welcome us on arrival! The views are just incredible.. a real treat to wake up to and come back to each day. This really is a perfect little holiday haven and a credit to the lovely owners. We had a wonderful time and will not hesitate to book again.

    to have a shelf on the wall inside the shower to place your toiletries etc ( had to put them on the floor) 2. A cupboard next to the sink, to put your toilet/ make up bags on ( again had to place on the floor) 3. Drawers in the bedroom so you can place your case on top of them ( instead of on the floor) only minor details . Would definitely stay again thankyou

  • "Absolutely amazing property."

    Very peaceful and quiet, and the property has been done to a really high standard. Very well equipped. Lots of lovely nice touches like having the hot tub ready for use when we arrived, and a scone, jam and cream waiting for us. Location is a great base for getting around this part of Devon, but is delightfully secluded and quiet at the same time. The lodge is comfy and lovely and warm. Fantastic views. Nothing negative to say at all

    The lodge is immaculate , cosy and comfortable. The garden is perfectly rustic and secure. The hot tub a luxurious bonus and easy to stoke up and get going. The mile long lane down to the lodge needs careful manipulating; much trickier in the dark so make sure you have all the snacks and supplies you’ll need before heading to the lodge. The area of Cheriton Fitzpaine is lost in time; very quaint and very quiet. The walk to Thornes Farm Shop for a lovely breakfast took 40 mins each way; great care was taken on the walk due to no footpath. A lovely stay

    The owners have thought of everything to make our stay extremely comfortable- the place was spotlessly clean and everything smelt lovely- bedding, blankets, dressing gowns etc. the owners are there if you need anything and are extremely helpful but you do have complete privacy. We had booked a roast dinner at The Ring of Bells, a beautiful pub 5 mins away - due to circumstances we couldn’t make the reservation but was able to ask for it as a takeaway- would highly recommend the meal. If you’re looking for peace and comfort with beautiful views then look no further. Would love to return.
