Mr Broom
September 2020

“The property was exactly as described, and was extremely homely.”

Kitchen was fantastic with everything that you could think of within it. We were very lucky with the weather, and so utilised the garden. Nice to receive a call from the owners before we went, and then during our stay, after we had had a few minor issues. Certainly looking forward to returning in May 2021.

“Super place to stay.”

Brief stroll into Tavistock, yet didn't feel as if we were in the town. Gorgeous views too.

Mr Tremeer September 2018

“Cartref is a lovely property on a quiet road on the edge of Tavistock, 10 minutes walk to the centre by road or the old railway line which has marvellous views over the town from the viaduct.”

Cartref is furnished with everything you might require and has TVs in every habitable room. Tavistock is a wonderful market town, lots of independent shops and an indoor market. Good walks along the River Tavy and canal in town and out into the countryside. Will be going back again.

The property

On the edge of the fine old Dartmoor town of Tavistock, this detached house is situated on a quiet residential road.

With Tavistock’s interesting shops, restaurants and leisure centre within easy reach, this is an excellent family house for holidays.

Take the flight of steps up to the front door and on the ground floor is a cosy snug where you can relax with the TV or iPod dock, then wander through to the kitchen with dining area to prepare family meals as you enjoy views over the town from the bi-fold French windows.

The sitting room with wood burning stove is another relaxing space with second TV to avoid family squabbles.

Head upstairs to find the four bedrooms, with the luxury of an en suite bathroom with the master double, as well as another bathroom and small study.

The lawn garden is a pretty space with flower beds and barbecue and furniture for alfresco meals.

Stroll into Tavistock’s heart for all sorts of amenities, or head to Plymouth for city lights.

There is excellent walking and cycling around the area, and plenty of National Trust gems to visit like Cotehele and Buckland Abbey.

Cartref is a comfortable house for visiting Devon attractions or venturing further to Cornwall.
