Description

The Workshop is a beautifully presented annex set in the idyllic village of Mary Tavy, Devon.

This welcoming, romantic retreat offers roadside parking and accommodates two well-behaved dogs, making it an ideal choice for couples seeking a peaceful escape.

Step inside to discover an airy open-plan living space, where skylight windows in the bedroom invite natural light and create a tranquil atmosphere.

Unwind in the inviting hot tub, or chill in the lounge area, perfect for slowing down together.

Sink into the inviting sofa, enjoy a film on the Smart TV, or bask in the gentle glow of the electric-effect fireplace as you share a glass of wine and reminisce about your day’s adventures.

The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing your favourite dishes, while the dining table for two sets the scene for cosy, intimate meals.

When night falls, the super-king-size bedroom promises restful sleep, with the flexibility to convert the bed into twins if preferred.

Drift off beneath the stars, visible through the skylight windows, and enjoy the convenience of an en-suite walk-in shower, basin, and a discreetly tucked-away washing machine.

Outside, the enclosed garden offers a private sanctuary, perfect for sunbathing on loungers, dining under the open sky, as dusk settles and stars emerge.

Venture out to explore Tavistock Pannier Market, where you can browse for local produce and artisan treasures.

A gentle stroll leads you to Tavistock Park (The Meadows), a serene spot for picnics and riverside relaxation and the River Tavi offers beautiful, peaceful walking trails perfect for nature lovers and explorers alike.

Set right on a popular national cycle network route 27, you can hop on your bike from the doorstep and dive straight into exhilarating trails winding through moorlands, forests, and ancient stone landmarks.

History and spirituality await at Tavistock Parish Church, while the dramatic landscapes of National Trust-Lydford Gorge offer scenic trails and the breathtaking 30-metre Whitelady Waterfall.

Both The Mary Tavy Inn and Peter Tavy Inn are within easy walking distance, each offering a charming and inviting atmosphere- Whether you're looking to enjoy a cozy meal, sample local ales, or simply unwind in a traditional Devonshire pub setting, these friendly establishments provide the perfect spot for relaxing evenings just a short stroll from your holiday let.

Discover centuries of history at Lydford Castle and the Saxon Town, or enjoy a unique encounter with alpacas at Lydford Gorge Alpacas.

Dartmoor National Park is also close by, offering the chance to wander along dramatic moorland paths, scale rugged tors for sweeping vistas, or experience its rolling valleys on horseback for a true sense of adventure.

Whether you’re unwinding, exploring, or making cherished memories, The Workshop provides the perfect base for your Devon adventure.

Our weeks stay at the workshop was exceptional.

Very clean, comfortable and everything there you could possibly need. The cake, flowers, milk and tea and coffee were so appreciated. Our dog was not forgotten either. The hot tub was a bonus when returning home after a days walking and exploring. I would highly recommend this accommodation and the surrounding area. So much to see and do or a very quiet cottage to chill out in.

Lovely property with excellent facilities.

Very well kitted out, with everything that is needed. Great location - very quiet, amazing walks nearby along the River Tavy & up onto the open moor. Hot tub was very welcoming, especially after a long walk. Excellent too to watch the stars while listening to the local owl!! A great place to spend a few days of R&R. Would recommend strongly & would love to stay again.

What a lovely stay very well kept although dog friendly with everything to welcome your pet you would not know dogs had been there .

It's in a good location secluded but within an hour of attractions. Tavistock is the nearest town about 10min drive with everything you need. The pub at Mary tavy has a great beer garden & does food. Back to the cottage the hot tub is amazing lovely & warm the bed is huge & very comfortable the kitchen has everything you need. Parking is on the lane within a few metres of the cottage. The garden is secure & private. All in all a great place to stay. P.S the fresh milk,cake, doggie extras &flowers are a great touch
