The gardens are truly magnificent, incorporating a beautiful walled garden, two shallow streams, a bluebell wood and wildflower banks.  You can explore the Devon countryside without having to leave the grounds, with walks that not only give a vista of the garden but also of the stunning valley the house is located in.

"Great house in an absolutely beautiful location!! We had an amazing holiday!"

Victoria, Aug 23


"We all had a really enjoyable stay. The views were fantastic and the huge garden was just right for our adventurous grandchildren. Our daughter-in-law mapped the garden for orienteering and everyone enjoyed finding the controls. Hide and seek was a favourite activity too. There are some damp problems which are worst in the upstairs family bathroom which need some attention. We enjoyed eating out on the patio and our host Paul was very responsive including arranging for a new gas canister to allow us to use the nice & efficient BBQ."

Dave, Aug 23


"A beautiful house in spectacular surroundings. Perfect for our family celebration. Everything we needed for adults and children; well equipped kitchen, games room, comfy beds, lovely lounge and the most beautiful view from a large conservatory. Open the patio doors and it was like a painting or tv scene, great grounds for exploring. Loved the walled garden and a good bbq area. Perfect. Thank you."
