Nice accommodation. Bedrooms were snug but fine. Nice en suite to the master. Lovely views and hot tub. Great for golfers. Short drive to Dartmouth and surrounding areas.

This property was absolutely perfect for a weekend away from London with friends. We only needed 2 of the bedrooms, but 2 other rooms were available. We brought our dog as well. Everyone thought the property was perfect for all we wanted to do. We came to dine at Seahorse and go hiking in the area. Dartmouth was a great home base for all we wanted to do – eat great seafood, breath fresh air, and be in the outdoors. …

Very clean and comfortable accommodation for six of us, plus a dog. Looks exactly like the photos. Super peaceful surrounded by woodlands and private – even though there are eight lodges, you would never know as they are all obscured by trees. It’s very remote so you will find getting in and out using the single track lanes for 20 mins at the start and end of your daily journey potentially frustrating and you need t…
