The town's history dates back to the Saxon period, with numerous Saxon place names continuing in use today, as well as historical marvels such as the caverns at Rock and an Iron Age hillfort that overlooks the town. For a self-catered stay, Chudleigh offers a variety of services, including two pubs, an English restaurant, convenience stores, charming shops, and much more. Teign Valley is a stunning, steep, forested valley on the eastern edge of Dartmoor National Park between the communities of Dunsford and Chudleigh. The villages of Christow, Lower and Higher Ashton, Dunsford, and Hennock are tranquil holiday destinations surrounded by breathtaking hills, fields, rivers, and thatched cottages.

    It should be large enough for a wheelchair user to fit underneath. There should be a ramp from the patio door to the patio area not a step. The electric bed should be of hospital spec as it does not lift up far enough to allow the carer ease of dressing. Also the side bars of the bed interfere with the ease of patient transfer. The flooring in the hall and lounge should be a hard material, not carpet. This would allow ease of wheelchair mobility. It would also enable ease of cleaning, especially in wet weather.

    The place was spotlessly clean and we had all the comforts of home provided. We used the cafe, restaurant and the swimming pool which were all wheelchair accessible. The whole place was very quiet and restful. I went for some lovely walks around the estate in woods and fields, using the map provided. There are three suggestions for improvements. The first is that my husband was unable to exit the hospital bed on the first morning. This was because the mattress was lower than the dropped wooden bed rail, meaning he couldn't put his feet to the floor without pain. I rectified this by putting one of the twin room mattresses on top of the one provided on the hospital bed. The second was that the chairs in the lounge were too low for a wheelchair user. Again this was solved by stacking two sofa cushions on top of each other which made access much easier. Lastly the shower chair provided in the wet room was extremely low for a man and it was difficult to push due to the rusted up wheels. Once we got used to the adjustments that I had to make, we had a good holiday.
