Exceptional place to stay, tucked away down the most Devon of Devon lanes, The Cabin has it all. We had a fantastic time in one of our favourite places on the planet – easy to get to the sea, and the moor – plus the hosts have thought of everything. Loved it.

Best value B and B we’ve stayed in. Spacious room with comfy firm bed. Amazing breakfast included – proper fresh orange juice, locally sourced bacon, sausage and egg. A popular place for breakfast.

Perfect place to stay for golf enthusiasts. The property was clean and well catered for. It was clear on the website that dogs should remain on leads outside, this was the only restrictive part of our stay. An extremely obedient dog would be key here.

The only reason for the lack of a five star review is that we ran out of hot water quite a lot. The…

“This is a magical home with the most beautiful view of the sea entrance to Dartmouth. Couldn’t have asked for better weather in December waking up to blue skies and sunshine. It’s worth the journey once you navigate all the steps and luggage down to Paul’s place. Would come again and bring more guests as there is plenty of room here for a big group. Love all the balconies and different levels of the house. Having a…

Pictures are accurate. Lovely 20 minute walk down to Blackpool Sands. Green Dragon pub in the village did excellent food. Tight entrance to get into parking spaces. Very close to Dartmouth. A really enjoyable few days away for our family.

We had a lovely stay at this property in Dartmouth, the house was an ideal place for our family, being close to the town and having its own parking. The house itself was spacious and comfortable, the beds were really comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped.

Spectacular waterside view. Unique. Comfortable beds. Well equipped kitchen. Very clean. We had a really wonderful time. I would recommend taking some of your own logs, there was only enough for 1 short fire for a 2 night stay.
