Was a great house for a family get together .Including small children . Lots of different spaces but not too big . Very well appointed with everything we needed . Lovely location . Quiet and rural but near enough to a good road to get places . Various members of the party went running and we all walked to the pub in Halwell . I can’t think of any thing negative.

Had a great time at Dart Lookout – it’s in a great part of town and had garage parking which was a huge bonus. Beautiful home with beautiful views. Would definitely stay here again.

We have just returned from a few days at the lodge in between Christmas and New Year. It was absolutely gorgeous , so cosy and in such a beautiful setting. It was decorated beautifully for Christmas as well. We really loved the log burner in the evenings, it’s clear that everything has been thought out carefully in the lodge. The beds are so comfortable and the decor absolutely lovely, we were sad to leave!

The lodge was superb with fantastic views of the golf course and surrounding countryside,with bifolding doors opening out on to a large patio . Positioned just outside Dartmouth it was ideal for visiting the numerous local attractions including Dartmouth,Salcombe,Totnes and the nearby beaches of Blackpool sands and Slapton sands,all within easy reach. All in all a great place and would visit again

We had a wonderful three night stay at the Cartshed. Paul was very responsive and check in details were very well explained. We used what.three.words to easily find the location which I would recommend as the Cartshed is off the beaten track down some small Devon country lanes, although they were easy to navigate and we met minimal traffic. The inside space was beautiful, clean and cosy, we particularly enjoyed brea…

We felt very comfortable in the accommodation. It was super clean and excellently equipped (though a few more plates, knives, and forks would be nice if you want to make proper use of the dishwasher).

This house was perfect for our stay! We were 2 adults and 4 kids so the 5 bedrooms worked well (one is on the ground floor). There is loads of space and we felt right at home!
