“We went during the COVID Pandemic but not as clean as it should of been, through these times.”

A lot of cobwebs and dust all over, food crumbs in the kitchen cupboards and crumbs around the kitchen units on the floor, with stains on the kitchen cupboards. Dead flys & spiders behind the furniture upstairs and in the lounge. We enjoyed our stay as it is a lovely spacious cottage but should of been cleaner especially during these circumstances.

I am sorry to hear this. This falls short of the standards we expect and usually maintain. I am glad that this did not spoil your holiday. I might add that this season we have adopted an approach where Moorhaven is 'quarantined' for 3 days after cleaning, so that our guests can feel confident that they are entering a COVID-free zone.

“Historical cottage beautifully converted into a comfortable home.”

The sheltered garden is a sun trap full of flowers which encourage butterflies and bees. Interesting walks nearby too.

“The cottage was stunning.”

An absolute pleasure to stay there for five days. The rooms were spacious and decorated to such a high standard. We wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you

“It would be nice to know when the bins are collected as we couldn't empty our rubbish due to the outside bin been full up.”

When other cars were parked, it was extremely difficult to turn the car onto the grass .

- Miss Way, October 2019

Thank you for your feedback. Information regarding recycling and refuse (landfill waste) and parking is displayed prominently on the board in the kitchen and also in the cottage information folder at Moorhaven. There is enough space for 2 full bin liners of refuse, if both the kitchen bin and outside bin are used. Further bin liners of refuse can, if necessary, be left out behind the outside bin. There is enough parking space in front of Moorhaven for up to 2 standard-sized cars, with additional/alternative parking close by in the lane next to the old, red telephone box. Owner relations

The property

In the tiny edge-of-the-moor hamlet of Wonson, alongside a small, friendly pub and a lane-mile from Throwleigh, three cottages carefully and lovingly renovated from a long barn; we let two comfortable, welcoming cottages.

Steep drive leads to the parking area at the front, with views over the little pub garden to fields and moor beyond.

Behind, each cottage has its own enclosed, private garden.

A great base for exploring beautiful, dramatic moorland just a few minutes walk from the door. Moorhaven is end-of-row with, behind, private garden with huge granite table/bench and good planting.

Inside all hand-built, carefully designed, bright and fresh.

Glazed door into spacious kitchen/dining room (dishwasher, microwave, freezer, larder fridge, electric cooker); small utility room (loo, washer-drier) with space for drying boots/coats.

Four steps down to bright living room with woodburner and smart TV/DVD.

Stairs (stairgates) up to three bedrooms - a double (5' bed) and a twin, both with en suite shower-room (suite), and, down 4 steps, a good-sized double (6' bed) with en suite bathroom (suite, shower over bath).

Dogs permitted in kitchen/dining area only.

Throwleigh: little village (pretty church) in lanes below Dartmoor's edge, on the lovely Mariners Way walk.

½ mile to pub, and to open moor; 2 to service station (shop); 5 to Chagford and Okehampton (golf, tennis, indoor pool, leisure centre, cinema).

Exeter, 18.

Fishing and riding not far.

About the location

THROWLEIGH

A picturesque town at the northern point of Dartmoor National Park in Devon, Chagford is small in size but is packed with amenities and things to do. There is a wide range of shops as well as four pubs. Chagford also has more active facilities such as public tennis court and an open-air swimming pool to enjoy at your leisure. It is a village of great history, home to the Three Crowns Hotel which dates back to the 1200's. Chagford is well known for its culture, hosting film, literary and music festivals in the village as well as an annual running race. Just over 15 miles away is the bustling, beautiful city of Exeter for a different kind of break, definitely worth a visit. The charming, attractive town of Okehampton sits just 12 miles away.

Note: Dogs are permitted in the kitchen/dining area only.
