“What a wonderful week we’ve had! The Hen House is spotlessly clean, perfectly equipped and brilliantly placed to explore beautiful South West Devon. Thank you for being such great hosts. The children have enjoyed farm life (especially seeing the baby calves, ducks, chickens, goats, cats and puppies!) We hope to be back soon!”

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Hideaway Cottage – it’s a real little gem in a beautiful part of Devon. The cottage was really comfortable with great amenities and some lovely welcoming touches. We had a great time visiting the nearby Burgh Island on the historic sea tractor, the beautiful Dartmouth and some cosy evenings with fish & chips from the nearby Fryer Tuck’s in Challaborough Bay. Well worth a visit!

Lovely stay at Galions. The views are incredible, the beds super comfortable, and the location ideal – an easy walk into Dartmouth and very close to the castle and castle to town ferry. Would happily stay again.

“Just the perfect spot in Dartmouth. Amazing views of the Dart & had everything we needed for a weekend break. Located right in the heart of town close to some lovely restaurants & pubs. Paul was helpful throughout & the check in procedure was very smooth. The Cabin sits atop a lovely cafe where you can pick up pastries & coffee in the morning in a matter of seconds! We both said we wished we could have stayed longe…

Beautiful place with the most amazing and relaxing views! Overall we had an amazing time and it’s a great place to stay, however, there are a few things to be aware of: The access to both front and back doors are down steep flights of stairs, which our dog couldn’t manage, which is fine for us (he’s tiny) but if you weren’t terribly agile or had a bigger dog that had any mobility issues it’s one to bear in mind.

Great location & lovely cottage. We had an issue with no hot water. I am dissatisfied with the hosts response that it was because the hot water was on a timer as it doesn’t make sense that it wasn’t set to come on for the morning. I would assume this has now been rectified, but I would check before you book.
