Set on the Northern edge of the stunning Dartmoor National Park with walks and cycle paths nearby, you can easily explore the beautiful surrounding countryside and discover the local wildlife, including the iconic Dartmoor ponies. Okehampton is a short distance way and has a good selection of shops, amenities, and castle, or walk along the Tarka Trail and the old railway to Meldon reservoir and enjoy some stunning views.

Great Property
Great property - good facilities. Some oddities such as no cafetiere in the kitchen and a no frying pan either (we don't think). Also a bit peeved at the strict recycling requirements and the threat of a £30 fine if we didn't do it properly - odd. Communication with the owners was good though they didn't have the property ready dead on time. All these are relatively minor quibbles though.
