Very clean and well appointed. The welcome items were a nice surprise and much appreciated. The bedrooms were lovely although a wardrobe in both bedrooms wood have been a bonus. Very comfortable beds and great linen and towels. I think it would be fairer if the listing mentioned that the cottage is on a busy, sometimes noisy road. If the weather is warm and you want the windows open the traffic noise is considerable particularly if you like a lie in! However, this is outweighed by the positives and we enjoyed our week exploring the local area.

We are delighted that you loved the cottage and it's facilities The location in the heart of a Dartmoor village does mean that the property is close to the minor road running through the village. The owners inform us that there had been an accident on the A30 during your stay which resulted in traffic being diverted for a period of time. The location however gives great access to the village pubs and the National Trust property Finch Foundry only yards from the property. The cottage is also blessed with a large rear garden. The cottage has two double wardrobes in one double room and. a 9 drawer dressing table , 2 bedside tables and a free standing clothes horse plus hooks with coat hangers in the second double room which also benefits from an en-suite shower room. Thank you for taking the time to help us improve our services. Owner relations
