Reviews

- “Fabulous! Would recommend without hesitation. Warm, cosy, lashings of hot water, lodge in very good order and well appointed. Having use of the hotel’s facilities but being self-contained and private in the lodge was the perfect balance for us. We loved the beautiful grounds and hired bikes, played golf and used all the practice facilities, swam, enjoyed beauty treatments, watched the falconry display, fed the baby deer and there was so much to do we never left the site all week only to top up with a few supplies. A truly brilliant week and great value for money. Thank you Helpful Holidays and Bovey Castle.”
Mrs Mckenna, HATFIELD, October 2018
- “The first thing to say is that we did really enjoy our holiday and may well come back for a shorter break. However, there were a lot of small things that weren't quite right. Individually they weren't a big deal, but collectively they were irritating and reduced the quality of our experience. One thing (admittedly subjective) is that we found the décor to be dated and a bit shabby - lots of damaged veneer on the wood furniture, for example. It didn't feel fresh, bright and cosy, as I would want a holiday home to be. Also, there was no DVD player and it was a shame that no games or books were provided - in a family-friendly lodge you expect a few, I think (although we had brought our own). The rest of our issues were in the kitchen, and they were just small things that were - cumulatively - annoying: no sharp knife; no pepper mill; only one wooden spoon; kitchen tap would not run cold water; no washing up bowl; no draining rack; no kitchen rubbish bin (I know we should aim to recycle as much as possible - and we did - but there is bound to be some rubbish); a broken cupboard (the pull-out base level unit); leaky old washing up gloves; no long-handled broom for sweeping the kitchen floor; no normal sized dessert spoons (just large serving spoons); no ordinary teabags provided (just green, camomile and earl grey - we brought our own tea and coffee, but would expect a few to be provided as a start). For reference, our point of comparison was a holiday we took last summer through Beach Retreats at The Village, Watergate Bay, where there was nothing to fault in either the décor or the facilities.”

2 miles from North Bovey, in a lovely setting, is Bovey Castle, built in 1907 as a country seat for the heir to the WH Smith empire and now a luxury hotel. Hidden in the grounds are 22 private, granite-built lodges of which we offer 10. These smart, stylish, comfy lodges look over the Edwardian gardens, lake and tennis courts; parking is a 5 minute walk from the lodges (unloading/loading closer). All the hotel facilities are yours to enjoy, including indoor heated swimming pool (65 x 19'6" x 4'6" deep; children welcome between 9am and 5.30pm when accompanied by an adult), gym, steam room, sauna, spa (beauty treatments) and restaurants.

Optional activities for adults include archery, rifle shooting, fly fishing, falconry (daily display), riding, clay pigeon shooting and cider and sloe gin making.
