What guests are saying
Overall we were pleased with what the property offered in accommodation.
However the bathroom upstairs is dark and oppressive. We believe it needs a stronger light and the pull switch on the light over the sink needs replacing as Dominic needed to use sellotape to effect a way of keeping it on. A mirror that has magnifying ability over the sink would be welcome for putting drops into your eyes and applying makeup. Also the door kept swinging open. The lounge settee is o.k. but another armchair would have been welcome. The downstairs wet room is part bathroom and part utility and doesn't really work as either, Whilst bearing in mind the extremely dry weather the lawn was looking extremely unkempt and lumpy. It definitely needed cutting.. .
Nestled in the South Devon countryside is The Old Coach House at Little Dunley Cottages.
A short drive away is Bovey Tracey and Newton Abbot. The area is peaceful and tranquil; a break from the hustle and bustle of life. The accommodation was extremely spacious and well equipped. The property was clean and well maintained. The staff were helpful and attentive and the neighbours friendly. We found our week stay very comfortable and a pleasure to return to each evening. This is definitely a property we would return to and recommend. For an enjoyable day out on a sunny day we suggest the Dartmouth Steam Railway and River Boat Company Round Robin trip. The trips to Totnes and Dartmouth made our holiday. Local places to eat are Claycutters Arms and Ten Tors Inn.
Garden could do with a bit of work.
Rail on steps outside would be sensable also review last step on flight of stairs higher than other steps almost fell a few times not sure if would meet building regs. Cushions for sitting outdoor limited and one looked like a mouse had eaten through it. Understandable in the countryside. Being an old farm building seemed to attract flys especially in extension area near ground floor bedroom. Excellent mattress will be buying an ikea mattress based on our stay. Pillows could do with covers condition of some pillows looked poor when stripping bed. Throws on sofa loverly touch as well as general decor. Overall had a great stay/Holiday my friends are already talking about doing it again.
