Our 5th visit. Well looked after accommodation and has all we need including a comfortable bed, although we find the WIFi intermittent, we really don’t care, it’s to be expected where you are. We are happy with everything that’s offered and the family are very kind and helpful. I’d love to see a stable door one day!! Then we can open up half of it to see the view and let the air come in in the warmer months and still keep our dog in. It would look stunning. Great walk into Totnes and around Dartington. Some lovely pubs locally with great food! We have booked to come back.
