    “The hot tub, pool table and dart board were great, the location is very quiet and there are a couple of nice pubs within 10-15 mins drive, but that’s where the good things about our stay end.”

    We don’t normally leave bad reviews, as the places we have stayed at before have not had this level of issues, but the money we paid for a week away here, we feel let down! Before even entering the property, the glass in the door is de gassed and full of condensation and from reading other reviews has been for a long time. The windows and doors are covered in spiders and webs which haven’t been cleaned for a long time. The radiators in the shower rooms are next to the toilet and are covered ...

    We don’t normally leave bad reviews, as the places we have stayed at before have not had this level of issues, but the money we paid for a week away here, we feel let down! Before even entering the property, the glass in the door is de gassed and full of condensation and from reading other reviews has been for a long time. The windows and doors are covered in spiders and webs which haven’t been cleaned for a long time. The radiators in the shower rooms are next to the toilet and are covered in urine and other stains, so the towels left on them were not used and the bottom of the shower curtain was covered in mould. The double bed was really uncomfortable, it has a thin mattress with a mattress topper and we didn’t get a good nights sleep all week and even decided on going home a day early just so we could get some sleep. Both wardrobes have broken draws which can’t be used, the game’s cupboard has been put together wrong, so the draws won’t close. This holiday home is marketed as a “fabulous abode” but it needs a good clean and things fixing before you can call it that!

The property

Hazelwood Lodge, a fabulous, two-bedroom abode is nestled in the picturesque village of High Bickington, Devon, close to the Exmoor National Park.

Offering the perfect escape for families, friends and couples and with off-road parking, a smart TV and a wonderful location in amongst the picturesque Devon countryside, Hazelwood Lodge is an ideal base for escaping day-to-day life.

Step into the homely interiors and settle in for a memorable stay; the kitchen/diner is the perfect spot to cook up a feast for all the family, before relaxing in the mezzanine-style sitting room with a sofa bed and balcony.

Curl up on the sofa with a glass of something special or, if the weather permits, wander out onto the enclosed balcony where you can marvel at your surroundings a little while longer or indulge a long soak in the tub.

Head back downstairs to wash away the day in the sleek shower room before fining two delightful bedrooms; a double with a handy en-suite, and a twin.

When you’re ready to explore the area, you’ll find the village of Umberleigh nearby, where you can marvel in the beauty of the River Taw and the verdant pastures of the countryside.
