Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway, a family holiday in nature, or the peace and quiet of the woodland, The Cabin at Gara Mill is the perfect holiday lodge in Devon.

The Cabin is a beautiful Norwegian wood lodge is set in a secluded valley in the South Hams.  With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, it’s a perfect holiday retreat between the seaside, the rolling hills and the popular towns of Dartmouth, Totnes and Salcombe.

One of only nine private lodges at Gara Mill, The Cabin is designed to blend into its natural habitat. You can escape the rush of daily life in this exceptional tranquil setting. Count the butterflies or dabble your feet in the crystal-clear waters of the Gara River. Stroll up to the meadow for a firepit barbeque or a picnic on Your Devon Escape.

Set foot into the open plan living space, holding a stylish interior and an array of essential amenities. This property has been careful to consider your self-catering requirements. It’s sunny and airy with full-length windows and a panoramic forest view. The Cabin is at the top of the river valley, so it drinks in all the light above the trees.

The kitchen is pretty and practical, with new appliances and oak shelves. You’ll find a toaster, cafetieres and everything you need for cooking at home. The living area is complete with two comfortable sofas, TV and a log fire, perfect for those cooler evenings in.

This Devon holiday lodge sleeps up to five adults and a child in comfort. The main bedroom has a built-in-wardrobe, beautiful woodland views, and a modern shower room ensuite. The newly fitted main bathroom has a large shower bath. Both bathrooms include a demisting mirror, underfloor heating, and a heated towel rail, ideal for keeping you cosy through the winter months.

The twin bedroom offers beautiful natural light and views out into the woodland. It has built-in cupboards for all your storage needs. The third bedroom has a comfortable single bed with a truckle bed; perfect for a small person. It is complete with a large chest of drawers and a washer-dryer, the essential kit for a family holiday!

The large sunny deck is ideal for dining al fresco after a day of exploring or relaxing with a book and a glass of wine. Afternoon snoozes on the modern sofas are seriously recommended.

The Cabin has been designed to reflect the woodland themes around it, with original artwork, forest greens and natural textures. A Scandi-style log burner ensures that this holiday lodge in Devon is as welcoming in winter as it is in the summer holidays.

Gara Mill is a wonderful spot for a family holiday. Bring your wellies and tromp down to the river to see the wildlife and have a paddle. Or walk up to the meadow above and cook supper on the communal firepit. Spot birds and butterflies, listen to the sounds of nature at night and watch the stars. It’s a safe space, with very few cars, where children can immerse themselves in nature.

This property is great for bucket-and-spade holidays. With dozens of sandy and shingle beaches to choose from, boats and small ferries to take, and ice cream parlours to visit, your children will never be bored!

The Cabin is a haven for nature lovers and lovers in general. Take long coastal walks and eat out in gourmet pubs. Browse the arty shops of Totnes, Kingsbridge and Dartmouth. Slapton Sands and Slapton Ley Nature Reserve are two miles away. The whole South Devon coast is your playground from this idyllic spot.

Eat breakfast on the sunny deck and enjoy a sundowner looking over the trees. Watch the stars in this designated dark sky area. Light the log burner in winter and throw open the patio doors in summer. There’s even a fire pit that’s positioned high above the cabin overlooking the valley beyond – the perfect excuse to roast a marshmallow. Plan your perfect mini break to this holiday lodge in Devon.

Guest book...

"What a stunning place to discover tucked away in a beautiful part of Devon! It is so close to the picturesque beaches, which the children were able to enjoy day after day being an easy ten minutes’ drive away. The Cabin itself is stylish and practical. We highly recommend and will be sure to return again soon!"

Frankie, Will, May and Molly, Banbury


"We loved our stay at The Cabin.. it was the perfect way for us all to unwind! The interior is beautifully decorated and so inviting to relax in, and the kitchen inspired us to cook great food too! You feel part of the outdoors both on the terrace amongst the treetops or inside, with the dappled sunlight making the whole place warm and luminous. The countryside is stunning and we loved exploring the river Dart and popping to the coast. It was always a real treat though, to return ‘home’ to The Cabin!"

Liz and Simon, Brittany


"Gara Mill is a beautifully-appointed treetop hideaway set in the glorious surroundings of a river valley. The large living area windows give a view over the trees and lead to a secluded decking area. The wood burner creates a cosy atmosphere on cooler days. Comfy beds and lovely décor give a feeling of luxury. There are loads of lovely places to explore nearby and we will definitely be back."

Nikki and Anita, Gloucestershire


"We had a brilliant few days in the cabin. Very clean and uncluttered and super comfortable with the woodburner adding to the cosy woodland vibe. The surroundings were so magical and peaceful. Car trips to multiple gorgeous beaches were within 10 to 20 minutes away. Wonderful for the kids and dog. It was an ideal stay for these dull winter months. Thank you!!"

Antonia, Feb 24


"Beautiful and reserved place. Lovely for a nice relaxing time away. Such a beautiful little house with everything you need."

Paige, Feb 24


"The Cabin was beautiful and set up just right for a peaceful getaway. Paul was easy to communicate with and replied to any questions within an our and sometimes 10 minutes. I feel this is one of my best holiday home experiences and I’ve had many good ones."

Ash, March 24


"We stayed at ‘The Cabin’ for 5 nights & by the end we didn’t want to leave - We wished we had booked the spot up for longer!! The cabin is beautifully nestled amongst the trees so you are surrounded by nature & can hear the constant flow of the nearby river! Amazing place to get away from it all & relax. The weather during our stay was cold & wet, but thanks to the wood burner in the lounge it was so cozy inside! Paul left a helpful manual inside with local recommendations & walks. Definitely recommend staying here!"

Ben, March 24


"We have stayed in many holiday homes and this is definitely one of the best. The cabin is beautifully decorated with so much attention to detail. It was warm and cosy for our Easter break and I can imagine that in the summertime with full use of the deck and meadow above it will be gorgeous. Comfortable beds, spotlessly clean, well stocked kitchen, spacious and homely in a beautiful location. I wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful cabin and the kind and communicative hosts".

Elle, April 24


"Absolutely lovely lodge in peaceful woodland surroundings. Terrace to sit out if it’s sunny or wood burner if it’s not. Lodge has been fitted to a very high standard and is a lovely place to spend time. Narrow single track lanes to get there which were ok for a VW camper van but might be tricky for anything much bigger. A lovely peaceful retreat".

Wendy, April 24


"5 stars - beautiful cabin that was very well equipped. We appreciated the kitchen tools and sauces and seasonings. Everything worked smoothly when we arrived. The guest information book had lots of local knowledge which added to our experience."
