Set 7.9 km from Sandy Park Rugby Stadium, Stunning home with magnificent views in East Devon offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking. 19 km from Powderham Castle and 34 km from Dinosaurland Fossil Museum, the property provides a garden and a terrace. The property is non-smoking and is located 31 km from Newton Abbot Racecourse.

This lovely house is in a good position for local facilities, walks and places to visit. The house is beautifully furnished with some delightful additional touches, including artworks. Outside, there's plenty of romping ground for children, (and adults!) and inside the are books that cover a range of interests, plus various games to play in the evenings and on wet days. The beds are very comfortable, and the spacious master suite has a balcony with great views, which can also be seen from the kitchen and the outside seating area. The kitchen diner is a great family space with good quality appliances, and was a joy too cook and eat in. The lounge has a great tv and also includes an in-tune piano - such fun! There's also a small lounge next to the kitchen. It's a great place to stay and we have no hesitation in recommending it. The instructions for finding the property were very clear, but we approached from the opposite direction and the addition of a 'Greenfields' sign on the roadside would have been very helpful. Special thanks to Joanna for the little extras, and especially the welcome pack!

Amazing property, much bigger than it seemed in the photos, clean and fresh with a wonderful homely kitchen, massive comfy couch, lovely comfy beds, great shower, thoughtful touches like spare toiletries, incredibly helpful, friendly hosts who baked us a cake and left cookies 🥹 friendly farm dog who knew not to come inside but came to the doorway and lay there looking very cute. Not far from lovely market villages with some great little shops or a co-op nearby. Beautiful light location with Dartmoor easily accessible. It was exactly the oasis of peace and calm that we so needed. Thanks for facilitating a wonderful weekend for us.

    The farmhouse is set in idyllic countryside, the views from the property were just wonderful. The owner Nick was very friendly and welcoming both in his message before we arrived and when we got there. The beds were the best we have ever slept in and the atmosphere of the whole place was as relaxing as you could wish for. Our stay was too short and we will certainly be returning.

    This was self catering therefore breakfast not provided. The cottage was refurbished to a very good standard but, because of the layout it had a lot of stairs with the shower in the eaves of the cottage and sadly not suitable for a larger guest but well furnished.

    Gorgeous little cabins very spacious for 4 people, we really enjoyed arriving and having the hot tub ready for us to jump straight into! Was nice to have a self catering venue as we could bring food/drinks and the fridges were big which helped! We went as a group of 18 colleagues, it was the perfect getaway. Enjoyed food in the bar one evening and used a separate space to hold a round up meeting. The hotel was very approachable and accommodating!
