    “The Old Chapel has everything you need and to a very high standard.”

    From the substantial welcome pack to the monocular to look out over Dartmoor, there little things in the property to make your stay memorable. Highly recommended.

As soon as you enter the open-plan living area, you will be warmed by the ground source heat pump's underfloor heating: a sumptuous corner sofa welcomes you to relax while the woodburning stove adds an extra layer of warmth.

Head to the contemporary kitchen, which is equipped with a host of appliances to satisfy your culinary needs.

Before you retire to bed in the king-size room, freshen up in the stylish en-suite shower room, which features a walk-in shower, his and her vanity units and a WC.

The exterior features a side patio with a gas barbecue, a table and chairs so you can enjoy a grilled feast on a summer evening.

Locally, you’ll find a handy village store and The Carpenters Arms in Ilsington.

Venture further into Dartmoor and visit Widecombe-in-the-Moor a pretty thatched hamlet, with a 14th century church approached via winding country lanes: enjoy lunch or afternoon tea at the Café on the Green or sample the local ale at the famous Rugglestone Inn.

Unspoiled walking and cycling paths can be found nearby on Dartmoor's southeast slopes, which lead to Teignmouth's shore.

Consider stopping for a picnic at Haytor Rocks, a granite tor with breathtaking views of Dartmoor and the South Devon Coast.

Whisky lovers can visit the Dartmoor Whisky Distillery and sample fine single-malt drinks there.

Or head to Teignmouth, a harbour town with a Victorian pier, a diving school, and a beautiful sandy beach.

There’s plenty to look forward to whilst holidaying in Devon, and The Old Chapel provides a wonderful bolthole for beginning your adventure.
