    “Firstly the outside lights wasn't working correctly then for the other 3 nights wouldn't even turn on which didn't give us much light in the hot tub.”

    On Monday the alarm that was detecting gas starting going off as we were about to leave to go for food we was unable to contact yourself as we had no welcome pack/book so contacted sykes direct who never informed us of an outcome.

    On Monday the alarm that was detecting gas starting going off as we were about to leave to go for food we was unable to contact yourself as we had no welcome pack/book so contacted sykes direct who never informed us of an outcome. We returned to find the detector had just been removed from the property with no information to say why it was alarming which worried us slightly to be staying in the lodge with a potential gas leak. Also on the listing it said there is a log fire in the property with a starter pack of wood and lighters, we arrived to find there wasn't which was a little disappointing. One other little thing is I'd state on the listing is there is absolutely no provision for hand wash, washing up liquid/tablets just so people know to bring.

The property

Dolton 2.9 miles.

Silver Birch is a beautifully presented lodge overlooking the countryside and lakes of Stafford Moor, offering a wonderful base for enjoying the quieter side of rural Devon.

With a hot tub, enclosed garden and scenic setting, it welcomes families, couples and four-legged companions alike.

The bright open-plan living area has been designed to make the most of the views, while the large decking area encourages guests to spend time outdoors, whether dining, wildlife watching or enjoying a soak in the hot tub.

A fully enclosed and gated garden makes this lodge particularly attractive for dog owners, while an outdoor tap helps keep muddy paws and walking boots clean after exploring.

Approximately two miles of footpaths can be accessed from the doorstep, allowing guests to discover the surrounding countryside without needing to travel.

From village pubs and riverside walks to national parks and sandy beaches, Silver Birch is perfectly placed for experiencing the very best of Devon's diverse landscapes.

About the location

DOLTON

Torrington 6.5 miles; Okehampton 15.2 miles; Barnstaple 16.2 miles; Exeter 28.8 miles.

Dolton is a small rural village in the heart of Devon's rolling countryside and offers a small selection of shops and pubs, making it the ideal place to stock up on any store cupboard essentials and maybe stop off for a refreshing pint or a bite to eat in a traditional English pub while you are here. Winding lanes, high hedgerows and a gentler pace of life characterise the area. The open tors of Dartmoor are a big attraction for nature lovers and walkers, while the hills of Exmoor and the surfing beaches are all a short but scenic drive away. Historic Torrington, home to RHS Rosemoor and an arts centre is within easy reach, whilst the cathedral city of Exeter with its Roman city walls, shopping centre, theatre and restaurants, makes a great day out. Other towns worth a visit include Barnstaple, Copplestone and Okehampton. For a slice of rural England in the heart of idyllic Devon, make sure you pay a visit to Dolton.
