“Had a wonderful stay with my family.”

The property is very beautiful, spacious and well furnished. Lustleigh is a delightful village and it is well situated for trips throughout Dartmoor or south Devon. I would definitely recommend it!

“We had a lovely stay in this wonderful house.”

The house has everything you could want and everyone commented how comfortable their beds were too! Nice and quiet and a nice view of the village from the front windows. We were holidaying with grandparents, children and two dogs and it worked well for everyone. The housekeeper was really lovely and accommodating also. It took us a while to get used to the roads as they are very narrow and steep immediately around the property but so long as you are aware and careful all is well. We ventured out everyday and enjoyed visiting the local area and Dawlish, Teignmouth, Torquay and Paignton. Overall a good week despite the great British weather!!

“My family and I booked this beautiful cottage to celebrate my Mum’s special 80th birthday.”

The cottage was beautifully furnished, filled with all the comforts of home and the location was absolutely stunning! The pretty village with it’s quaint little shops, thatched cottages, church and pub was just a short walk from the property. The surrounding areas were stunning with lots of beautiful countryside and woodlands to walk your dog. Many thanks Maddy for a wonderful stay and thank you very much for the gorgeous hamper and delicious cake!

“Beautiful location; the serener from the house is excellent.”

I loved my stay. The home was immaculate; very well maintained. The only fault I found was the cobwebs in several places and my fear of spiders. I hope to visit again. Thank you

Nicholas April 2023

“Lovely house in a beautiful valley.”

Great location within walking distance of a lovely village with a great pub. It was a shame the top bedroom had no blind on one of the velux windows so we had to stuff a blanket to cover it to enable the grandchildren to sleep. The lovely kitchen/dining area would have had a great view across the valley but there was an awful large Conifer tree obstructing any view.It was at the end of their neighbour garden so maybe the owner could persuade them to have the tree removed.

- Nicholas, April 2023

Thank you for your feedback, we are glad you had a lovely stay. The owner is currently looking into blinds for the velux and we hope these will be fitted soon. We hope to see you back again. Property Owner

“We had such a lovely stay at Oakhurst, a lovely homely feel, well equipped kitchen and super comfy beds!”

The welcome tray was a nice surprise and the cake was absolutely delicious! The house is well situated with lovely walks from the doorstep, a little park, a local shop and pub just steps away. It was a pleasure to meet the host Maddy who was lovely and helpful. A really great half term break! Thankyou!

The property

The magnificent four-storey Oakhurst is located in the popular village of Lustleigh in the Wray Valley region of Devon.

With a charming interior, beautiful views and spacious accommodation, Oakhurst is the perfect getaway for a family or group of nine friends, well-positioned in Dartmoor National Park.

Before accessing the property, make use of one of the four off-road parking spaces.

Start your break in the sitting room after a day of exploration, congregating around the woodburning stove and enjoying the far-reaching views over Lustleigh.

Discover the country-style kitchen/diner, where you can prepare and enjoy meals, easing your self-catered break.

Choose from five tastefully decorated bedrooms.

Due to recent renovations taking place in Nov 2023 a family bathroom in Oakhurst has been removed from the first floor along with a bedroom.

A double bedroom therefore has been added to the lower ground floor. Both the two double bedrooms on the lower ground floor (both with individual outside access) have full access to the family bathroom on the ground floor.

On the first floor both the king-size main bedroom and the single bedroom have full access to the dressing room/shower room on the first floor.

Finally, the second-floor twin room has its own en-suite shower room. Dean and Shirley at the local Dairy shop in the very heart of the village would be delighted to take orders at any time, during or before your stay at Oakhurst.

They can order in any food, drink, sundry items, logs, kindling you require and deliver to your door at an agreed date.

Please do ring them on 01647 277 107.

Oakhurst enjoys easy walking access to the village where you'll find the friendly village shop and pub: head down the lane or choose the wooded footpath which passes through the village orchard featuring the May Day rock.

There are footpaths galore with walks in all directions from the house through woods and meadows, along rivers and paths leading onto the moor.

Travelling further afield, plan a schedule packed with outdoor pursuits and hotspots, such as walks to Becky Falls, bird watching and hiking through East Dartmoor Woods & Heaths National Nature Reserve, exploring Haytor Rocks, or relaxing in Stover Country Park with a picnic.

You can also travel to the family-friendly Buckfast Butterfly Farm and Dartmoor Otter Sanctuary, while Spitchwick provides a beautiful setting for a riverbank stroll or even a swim.

Cap off your getaway with a wonderful evening of excellent food at the welcoming, 15th century Cleeve Inn, in Lustleigh which is just a short walk away.

Choose Oakhurst for your upcoming stay.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
