“The hot water for baths was a problem - tempting huge bath tub but lack of hot water so could only have a shallow wash not a soak.”

Other than that - lovely.
Miss Evans September 2019

“Lovely cottage which was the perfect size for just the two of us.”

Loved the village and the walks that you can do straight from the door and the friendly community shop. Also loved the trip we took on the South Devon Railway from Buckfastleigh to Totnes.
Mrs Woolley July 2019

“The Cottage was beautifully furnished and extremely comfortable.”

I took Mum and Dad and my two teenage children and we all had a jolly good time We loved the village which was perfectly positioned for walks on the moor straight from the door. The local pub was friendly and a short stumble from the door. Great food and reasonably priced.
Mr Toller May 2019

“It would have been helpful to have known about the storage heater master switch in the upstairs toilet.”

It was cool in the cottage on our first evening and it took a while to find it. No problems once we had - although younger people might not know about storage heaters and how they work.

The property

In the centre of Holne, 100 yards from the shop and tea room, a beautifully restored Victorian cottage snuggling between two other cottages.

Once it was part of the village forge, now a comfortable, warm and delightful home with lovely oak floors (rugs) downstairs.

To the front, a neat gated garden; at the back, an equally neat enclosed garden on several levels (steps up) with small lawn (table/chairs).

Front door to living room with open fire and TV/DVD; off living room, a prettily decorated little bedroom with two single beds.

Kitchen/dining room (dishwasher, washer-drier, microwave, fridge, electric cooker) with 5'10" door lintel, electric Aga for extra cosiness (October to Easter) and back door to garden.

Smart ground-floor bathroom (suite, shower over bath).

Stairs from living room up to two double bedrooms, one with 5' bed and the other with access to one side of bed only; loo.

Just right for touring Dartmoor and the south coast or simply relaxing. Holne: village (community shop, tea rooms, pub) in one of the most beautiful, wooded, sheltered parts of the Dartmoor National Park.

Lovely walking/riding (stables nearby), salmon/trout fishing in River Dart (bouldered, beautiful).

Scorriton (good food pub), 1 mile; Dartmeet, 4 miles; Ashburton and A38 road, 5 miles.

The sea at Torbay, 15 miles.
