“Idyllic location, so peaceful.”

The cabin is basic but we found the kitchen well stocked with equipment. The mattress on the bed is soft and we were worried we wouldn't be able to sleep but we had no problems and slept well. Shower was good and there was plenty of hot water. Be careful with the hot water in the taps as it is very hot. As stated in the description there is no phone signal and no internet access, so it's a good idea to try and do your research on the area before you arrive. There are no maps in the cabin so ...

There are no maps in the cabin so if you are planning on walking you will need to take one with you. There are plenty of walks listed on the Black down Hills website and we found the instructions really good. It would have been useful to have a visitors book as we often look at these to see where people recommend for eating out, visiting etc

“Very disappointed with the mattresses.”

Visited 4 years ago and it was bad then. Thought it would have been rectified. Will not go back, which is a shame as all the rest was ok. In my eyes the most important part of a holiday is to sleep well. This was not the case.

“Lovely cabin lovely location plenty of space outside where you will not see anyone and can chill out, my only advice would be to take supplies with you as if you want to pop to the shop its probably about 20 minutes each way to the nearest shop and further to a supermarket.”

- Anthony, May 2025
Andrew May 2025

“Had a lovely stay, the setting is really peaceful and surrounded by woods .”

The cabin itself was very clean with an excellent shower and piping hot water, reviews we read said it was basic and It is a bit,but it had everything we needed and I liked not having the internet or phone signal, it's nice to relax and not be bothered by the outside world. If I had one criticism it could do with a new mattress in the main bedroom as it's very soft. We would definitely come back though, good value for money.

“From the time you drive up to the cabin you are hit with all this tranquility and calming sound of birdsong.”

If you need to get away from all the stress of everyday living then this is the place for you to come and recharge, OK the accommodation isn't 5 star!! but it's clean and comfortable, the water pressure could be a better but it's hot, and after a day of fishing,walking or just chilling there is a TV albeit a little small for us oldies who's eyesight isn't that good. I would visit this place again come give it a try.

“I loved my week at the cabin, I had my two dogs with me & they enjoyed all the green spaces around the area.”

The cabin is well equipped and comfortable. If you come here with dogs there are a few dog parks nearby where they can enjoy exercise off the lead. Nearby Dunkeswell airfield has a wonderful cafe where you can enjoy breakfast & watch the aircraft. This is a great place if you want peace and quiet.

“An absolutely Brilliant week end.”

We all enjoyed our stay. My best birthday EVER . 86 !! We had both Cabins Wonderful Many Thanks.

Helen February 2025

“This cabin is in a wonderfully isolated location and perfect if you want to get away from it all.”

Please note this is not a luxury cabin. It is basic but everything is comfortable and works as it should. We went in winter and it was terribly cold inside when we arrived, however, once the log burner was going and we warmed the fabric of the building it was very comfortable. The owner was super helpful providing extra wood at a small fee. We will be heading back.

“This is a very basic cabin, the cleanliness was not great and there was little in the kitchen area.”

If you want back to basics, moderate comfort and to do little cooking it works. It's very out the way which makes in peaceful, this is part of what I was after. It had a lovely log burner which warmed the place up well, we had to open the top half of a door a couple of times. Our dogs enjoyed the rural surroundings, there's some lovely dog friendly pubs within a short drive and great walks. Don't expect to much from this property and you'll enjoy your stay, the outside looks run down compared to the pictures.

“We had a wonderful stay at the cabin.”

..could not ask for more , there was everything to hand we needed , very comfortable bed and really clean.... the owners were very helpful through a powercut and supplied logs , beautiful surroundings and very tranquil...highly recommend this wonderful cabin stay .

“The property was in a good location.”

However the property itself did not end up being what we hoped. The property was not very clean at all, there were dead bugs by the kitchen sink, and we even found one in our bedroom drawer. It was very dusty, one of us is asthmatic and was coughing and sneezing throughout the stay. As we arrived, we noticed that the property smelt of cigarettes and wet dog. We appreciate that it is a dog friendly property, but as people who have grown up with dogs, we know this smell can be controlled. We had half a toilet roll to last the week, and this inevitably run out, we had to buy our own, along with our own hand soap. The hot water ran out and resulted in cold showers. There were no curtains in the kitchen/living room area; we felt very exposed and as we were staying on someone’s property and there were people walking around the land. This was very uncomfortable for us.

- Jamie, October 2024
Kayleigh October 2024

“Lovely cabin, really enjoyed our stay - the only thing I would note is that there is no curtains / blinds in the kitchen area which would have been nice, although on saying that we barely saw anyone at all (which is exactly as we wanted it).”

Lovely fire and a peaceful getaway.

No hanging space no coffee table. Kitchen utensils sparce. Great location.

Davinia September 2024

“Lovely relaxing break with nothing but nature around you.”

Cabin had everything we needed and the log burner was perfect for the chilly evenings and the dog loved it too. Saw many birds, foxes, bats and even a deer one morning. The perfect week for pure chilling out and even had a go at fly fishing however didn't catch anything will try again one day. Great hosts who work very hard to keep the grounds perfect.

“This cabin is in the most peaceful and tranquil rural setting and is teeming with wildlife so bring your binoculars and download the free app Merlin ID for all the bird calls you will hear!”

We ended up sometimes abandoning plans to go out just to sit on the porch with the dogs and soak up the atmosphere. In the evening, the wood burner was always on the go, creating such a cosy cabin. The cabin is well stocked with kitchen equipment, which has all the basics. The shower is good as well. The host gave us a fly fishing lesson as well (tackle kindly supplied by the host). This cabin is the most perfect place to get away from it all and ‘switch off’ for a bit, in fact we cannot recall ever having had a more restful holiday.

- Lorna, May 2024
Robert May 2024

“We found the Log Cabin very spacious, clean, comfortable and very well equipped.”

We were there in May but with the Log Burner and electric radiators it was very cosy and warm. The surroundings are lovely and well maintained. The fishing was very productive on wet and dry flies and although as usual for some periods the fish were quiet in the main changing flies and trying to keep an eye on the hatch paid dividends. If youre flexible on dates, definately use the search by property number at the top left of the Sykes website to look at availability as its a lot easier. Rob the owner was very helpful in all matters and accomodating to any requests. We will be going there again i'm sure. :-)

Susan March 2024

“We expected rustic in a log cabin but would of liked comfort as well.”

The 2 single mattresses were very lumpy and uncomfortable. The settees were so low it was difficult to get out of them. There is no lock on the toilet door. The wood burner took a lot of effort to light with no kindling wood supplied. Then when we did get it going there was no glove or anything there to open the very hot door with to make it up!!. A description of the cabin would be "tired and in need of some TLC"

- Susan, March 2024
Aleksandra March 2024

“Nice, peacefull and quiet place to chill out.”

Plenty of walking opportunities. As it is Trout farm you can order fresh fish which tastes delicious. Owner very friendly and helpfull.

“We have stayed here before and were so happy to come back again.”

The log cabin is in such a beautiful location and while there was no Internet or phone signal, for us it gave us a greater sense of escape! We had everything we needed and the owner was very attentive when we needed him but otherwise let us enjoy our time. A great place to rest and enjoy a break

- Alice, February 2024

“Beautiful cabin with a beautiful view.”

Fully equipped with all needed in kitchen. Owners were friendly and left you alone to enjoy your holiday. Would definitely return again.

- April, February 2024
Charmaine February 2024

“Generally great stay, the place was lovely set aside a woodland and plenty of walks for the dogs.”

The single mattresses' need to be replaced, and the pictures need to be dusted, apart from this the place was ideal for a quiet weekend away in a log cabin with open fire.

- Charmaine, February 2024
N January 2024

“We really enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and the continuous sound of nature.”

We didn’t go for the fishing, just a bit of seclusion and the cabin certainly provided some peace and quiet. It is back to basics and tech free but that’s what we wanted. Comfort, the log burner, and of course bringing our dogs was a real treat. Don’t expect “Boutique hotel decor” it’s a log cabin, (dogs holiday there too) but do expect beautiful views, near by days out, chocolate box walks, followed by comfort, warmth from a roaring log burner, everything you need in the kitchen, cleanliness and our friendly host Rob was really welcoming. Thank you for having us. We will be back!

- N, January 2024
Sue January 2024

“Mr Snaith was very welcoming and helpful.”

The cabin has superb views , a pleasure to wash up and cook, in the well equipped kitchen. It was January so the woodburing stove was lovely and made the lounge area very cosy.

“Property was in peaceful location.”

It's was clean and tidy. Best shower easy to work plenty of pressure and hot water. Only problem we had with damp weather the last 2 days of holiday. We occurred having more flies, and insects in place. After I give kitchen and bath area good bleach down day before we left the flies etc stayed outside not in. Water pressure on kitchen taps not very good.

- Susan, October 2023
Andy September 2023

“Fabulous, quiet location.”

Sitting outside listening to the birds and the water was beautiful. Not having the Internet is a real plus. My dogs had a fabulous time snuffling around in the bushes and the trees. Yes the Lodge is a bit basic but you have everything you need and the heating system is excellent. Lovely stay.

Philip July 2023

“Location was lovely if a little challenging to get to.”

It was all good except the lower bunk bed mattress which you could feel the springs in your back (way past its sell by date) otherwise only omissions were hairdryer and kitchen scissors.

- Philip, July 2023
Aiste April 2023

“What a lovely couple of days surrounded by nature, just what we needed.”

The cabin is simple but full of charm. And the best thing, there is no signal or internet! It is surrounded with amazing walks and many sites to see a short drive away. The owner Rob was lovely and gave us many tips to explore. The only downside was there were no basic condoments like salt, pepper, oil but a village shop only 5 mins away so wasn't a problem really. For sure would recomend this to anyone who is looking for a truly relaxing break. Thank you :) Aiste and Jason

Jenna December 2022

“Property was very dirty and smells of damp, a lot small than expected and needs a complete restoration to bring it up to suitable standards, outside was also very different to the photos, no real space and shared with everyone, no walks from the door which was the main reason for booking, we only managed three nights before leaving, owner was very rude too as we arrived 15 minutes early and he told us to go away and come back later, no firewood and the property was freezing as only had two electric radiators in the property.”

- Jenna, December 2022
Sam December 2022

“Me, my partner and our dog had the perfect long weekend here.”

Place is picturesque and even if you’re not keen fishers like us. There’s so much to do and explore in the area. The no mobile signal is true and creates a much better atmosphere, would definitely come back again.

- Sam, December 2022
Annette November 2022

“This is the most perfect location for an escape from the rat race of life.”

The lack of mobile reception and internet meant no interruptions from people who don't understand I am on holiday. The living room was spacious with two two seater sofas and the kitchen whilst basic had everything you need to be able to cook anything from a roast dinner to baking a cake. The dog loved the outside space so he could play catch with his ball.

Amanda October 2022

“Just spent a week at the cabin with my 2 labradors, it was a fantastic base for exploring the beautiful coast and countryside of Devon and Somerset.”

The cabin was perfect and very clean and the surroundings are so relaxing, it really is a lovely place. The owner is a really lovely man and very helpful, every evening I lite the wood burner (you can buy wood from the owner) it was so cosy and a real delight to have in the cabin. I would definitely stay again and maybe next time try a bit of Trout fishing. Thank you for a perfect stay.

- Amanda, October 2022
Amber September 2022

“The cabin was the perfect rural retreat.”

We are a family of four (2 adults 2 young boys) and used the cabin a base to explore the area. The fishery and grounds are a really lovely place to be to get away from everything. The owners are really friendly and accommodating to. The cabin was clean and well stocked with bedding and towels. The beds are comfy,The kitchen was also well stocked with all utensils you could need. Dogs welcome which is a bonus! Overall I would return and recommend. There isn't any phone signal or WiFi but that's not a problem if you wany to get away from tech. My boys were a bit fed up with that aspect by the end however it was great to get the board games out and have some quality family Time. (We took our own boardgames) there are quite a few dvds and books supplied to if you,re stuck for entertainment,

“Lovely comfortable property in an amazing setting - so peaceful, lots of wildlife , host very friendly but descrete , went above and beyond to help us after we had a car crash, made my sons day by letting him feed the fish and even hold one.”

Fiona May 2022

“Beautiful rural retreat in a picture perfect setting.”

Owner was helpful and discreet. Facilities were basic but functional and this was part of the appeal. A couple of points for future guests to help get the best from their stay: bring everything you think you will need including toilet paper and hand soap. Note for dog owners - make sure your dogs are up to date on their tick treatment as due to the woodland and grassland ticks are rife in the area. Also be conscious of the electric fences round some of the pools.

“Exactly what we wanted.”

Log cabin as described. Room to move and relax.. Warm. Quite. Teaming with wildlife, fox owls buzzard, heron, squirrels etc didn't see the otter though. . Beautiful picturesque. Friendly host. Thanks for the 1st night logs. Easy access from M5 Near to friends we were visiting. And only 1/2 hour from the coast.

- Louise, March 2022
Jenny March 2022

“Basic but clean, shower was fantastic, plenty of logs provided for log burner and very peaceful setting.”

Disappointed that there was no view from inside the cabin, but wrapped up warm and sat on veranda to enjoy the surroundings. My fault for coming in March, if I come again I'd do it later in the year.

Russell February 2022

“Great place to stay Lovely surroundings peaceful.”

Only problem was Devon power company not set up to sort out after the storm, so had to cut short the stay due to no power !! This is not a reflection of the owners they done all they could.Maybe next time in the summer would be better .

- Russell, February 2022
Theresa February 2022

“This is a great get away for anyone wanting to relax in a authentic log cabin, to get away with no reception.”

The log cabin is just that, don’t expect to go to a log cabin and a completely modern tech experience, it is a very back to basics stay but that’s exactly what we were after so we could spend the days exploring and the evenings in reading by the fire. a lovely big wood burner and can pick up more wood if needed. The bed is very comfy, the sofas are a little warm but do the trick. It was cold when we stayed but we brought blankets and walking boots and water proofs ready for the weather. If you do want reception you can get it if you walk slightly down the drive. Sidmouth is a nice seaside town not to far away and Honiton good to go for restaurants.

- Theresa, February 2022
Maureen February 2022

“Both I and my daughter enjoyed our stay at the log cabin as we used it for a base to explore the area of Devon that we hope to move to.”

We had to bring our two dogs with us, but we don’t recommend it as a place to bring pets or young children to for a holiday. It’s ideal for a fishing holiday. Regards Maureen and Julie

“The furnishings were very outdated.”

They looked and felt like they had been in there for 50 years. The sofa looked like it was second-hand to start with and was not comfortable. The sheet for the duvet was practically threadbare and had poppers missing at the bottom. The bunk bed was very unstable and visibly rocked when climbing to the top. The shower's drain didn't work well and so your feet would be in a constant puddle. We did alert the owner to this who came and did something which helped a little. The windows had not been cleaned for a long time and so obscured the view when looking out of them. The description of the log cabin's location in relation to the trout lake was very misleading. The log cabin does not lead onto the trout lake at all, but two nursery ponds with a high wire fence surrounding them. It also said that you could walk in the woods behind the cabin, however the woods were inaccessible from any place at the location - we looked thoroughly. We expected there to be paths into the woods where you could go for a walk, but to access the woods with safe parking, was quite a drive away and not at all the woods on the location. There were also two other holiday accommodations on site which was very surprising as there was no mention of the other accommodations in the description. One of the other accommodations did face the trout lake and have the woods behind it and felt more like the description for the log cabin, and so was disappointing to feel we had been mislead. The cleanliness was the worst part of the stay. We found previous people's possession's in the drawers and rubbish under the bed. There was a mouldy banana skin in the bread bin. I called to ask the owner if they had bbq tongs, which he assured me he did, however there were none provided and the knives were so blunt their blades were rounded and did not cut through anything.

Pat May 2021

“No WiFi at all which didn’t go down with the youngster !”

Very peaceful setting. Lovely walks around the area for the dogs. Garden area could have been fenced in to keep the dogs away from the hens. Sofas were a bit low for our old Knees. We didn’t realise it was so far away from the main road and the access road was very narrow. We enjoyed watching the trout being feed and moved.

Joanna September 2020

“The photo's for the cabin or the location do not do this little haven justice.”

The drive down is beautiful, you feel like you are leaving the world behind. The dense tree cover is comforting and embracing and once within the cabin, I could have stayed there forever.! If you are after peace and quiet, no phone signal and a place to reset, relax, read and just "be" this is the place to come. The family, where friendly, welcoming and attentive. I did not partake with the fly fishing, but I did sit and admire the gentleman using the beautifully clean lakes. I, with my dog, maximised the walking options from here - breath-taking, both literally and figuratively (you need to be a mountain goat for some of the roads hahah). I will be back :)

- Joanna, September 2020
Oliver August 2020

“It was OK I can’t complain, owners didn’t greet us nor ask if everything was ok.”

The place was beautiful and the area was lovely. Nothing local, had to drive to everything but the peace was great It was lovely to watch the fish jump in the ponds Got attacked by a bat on the last night, can’t really moan about it that’s the country isn’t it

Nicola August 2020

“After our teenagers had had weeks in lockdown and as myself and my husband are keyworkers we were looking for a break and a change of scenery.”

The Log Cabin did not disappoint! A bit off the beaten track, the cabin was in a beautiful location and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The owner and his family could not have been more welcoming. We will definitely look at staying again in the future.

- Nicola, August 2020
Philip July 2020

“Nice little break away from it all, the log cabin is what it says it is, a log cabin.”

That said I have to say that Rob and his wife have the place to a very homely and comfortable standard. Myself my wife and 2 grown up grand daughters spent a week there and would have been happy to stay another week. If there has to be a downside, it is that the very narrow road leading down hill to the fishery can be a little challenging, but that’s not going to change anytime soon so give it a go, but keep an eye out for oncoming traffic and be prepared to reverse.

Alice October 2019

“Previous reviewers were right, the photos don't do it justice.”

It was a lovely log cabin that was well laid out... The fire is amazing and makes the place so cosy. There is no interenet or phone signal so is a real retreat from the world, but the cabin has everything you need. I loved sitting on the deck watching nature even in the rain The road in and out is very steep but you soon get used to it and is worth it for the tranquillity of the place. The owners were lovely and on hand if you need anything. Would definitely stay again

- Alice, October 2019
Shelley July 2019

“The cottage was in a beautiful, peaceful setting and comfortable & well-appointed.”

The owners were really friendly & helpful and made us feel very welcome, with freshly-baked scones and flowers on arrival. We also really enjoyed having great trout fishing on our doorstep, with on-hand advice from the owner when needed and he also kindly lent us a rod for the kids to try. We had a great stay and would love to return again.

- Shelley, July 2019
Wendy May 2019

“The Log cabin was very difficult to find following owners' directions.”

It was in a very nice setting and there were fresh flowers and a cream tea as described in other reviews.The inside of the cabin was very dark and gloomy compared with the sunshine outside. The sofas were old and saggy and not at all restful, and all the bed linen was very tired and pilled. I slept in the double bed which was fine, but my friend slept in the tiny claustrophobic room with the bunk bed which was extremely hard and uncomfortable. Utensils were adequate but basic (no spare loo roll!). The TV was small and lost reception regularly. The cabin might be an 'adventure' for a young family but was a disappointment for two active pensioners! We never saw our hosts, but left a day early putting the key and note in their letter box. Our two dogs were quite content with the break, even if we were disappointed.

- Wendy, May 2019

Cottage has everything you need. Owners leave you to enjoy your holiday without interference. A lovely welcome of scones, cream and Jam in the fridge.

Gail March 2019

“We stayed there as a family and it's a pitty there weren't more pics as the cabin is a perfect get away if you want to get away from it all.”

We loved it there so we're booking it again as can't wait to see everything in bloom. You can even sit and watch the fish jumping in the ponds from the veranda which is also lovely on an evening. The cabin has a real rustic feeling which was lovely with old wooden doors, the owners are lovely but we were really made to feel welcome with fresh flowers and proper Devon scones with jam and cream waiting for us. Roll on next time we're too as can't wait.

“The Log Cabin was lovely.”

A great base for exploring Devon. Host was available but not intrusive and very helpful. Fresh flowers and cream tea on arrival was a nice touch.

Tina October 2018

“Log cabin had everything we needed for a great holiday.”

Clotted cream scones and jam on arrival were great. Even had a pot of fresh flowers on table which was a nice touch. Kitchen is well equipped with every thing you need. Wood burner means you could visit out of season. Being a log cabin holds heat well. We loved the log cabin and will definitely return, watching the wildlife outside was great. We saw herons, an owl, a dear , an otter, a fox and a mixture of wild birds. Looking out onto the lake was great. Photos on website does not do it justice, really cosy inside. Would recommend.

- Tina, October 2018
Amanda-jayne September 2018

“The cabin itself was nice although the fire needed a good clean.”

it is set on the owners property but we didn’t see them much at all. the main downside was we were or certainly seemed to be miles from anything else, we drove everywhere and the road surrounding are very narrow. if you like quite and secluded this is perfect for you it was just a bit to rural for us.

- Amanda-jayne, September 2018
Paul August 2018

“Really relaxing, peaceful area by trout lakes and a forestry area.”

Could see myself living there the. I had a virus 2 days before our getaway so i did spend tge first couple days nursing that so I didnt get the full potential out of our break but the kids and our 2 dogs did. Would love to return to the same cabin in the near future.

Serena May 2018

“We had a lovely time with the feeling of privacy within nature listening to the birds all day long which was lovely.”

It is a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life. We felt totally relaxed and it is a great place if you are taking dogs. The cabin had everything you required and had all the space you needed. Definitely a great holiday destination.

- Serena, May 2018
Richard April 2018

“I thoroughly enjoyed my recent stay at the log cabin.”

The suroundings were very peaceful and quiet. The Cabin itself is far enough away from the other buildings that you have your own sense of seclusion and privacy. It has a covered veranda so you can sit out when the weather is good, and if the weather is bad then there's the ideal opportunity to have a log fire (logs etc provided). The kitchen has everything you would need - the owners even supplied me with fresh scones on arrival! I enjoyed walking around the grounds and fishing lake. Would definitely go again.

- Richard, April 2018
Pauline March 2018

“Really lovely place to stay.”

- Kirstin, January 2017
Hazel September 2016

“The log cabin was an 'away from technology' dream.”

No Wi-fi, no mobile signal, barely any television reception. So, if you're happy to read, walk, have squirrels, buzzards,bats and owls share your space, this is the holiday for you. We loved it, the dogs loved it and it's close to lovely Honiton, Beer, Lyme Regis and Sidmouth. The only downside is that the cabin was constantly in the shade, which is probably great in hot weather, but we missed out on the autumn sunshine,. No matter though, the wood burner was bright and cosy in the evening.

- Hazel, September 2016
Deborah September 2016

“This was our second time staying at the Log Cabin and we will definitely be returning next year.”

- Deborah, September 2016
Gail July 2016

“The Cabin is wonderfully isolated with everything you could need for a relaxing base in a beautiful area of the country.”

It is rustic and the grounds of the trout farm in which it is located are fabulous, with lots of grass areas for playing, access to the woods for exploring and no ambient light for star gazing! It is close enough to the main motorway to mean getting out and about is easy. A wonderful array of books, DVD's and magazines provided plenty of evening entertainment and the outdoor furniture and BBQ meant we could indulge in "out" as much as possible for meals.

- Gail, July 2016
Silvia June 2016

“A perfect setting for a great fly-fishing holiday; it was everything we could possibly want and more; a fabulous easily accessible trout lake in superb surroundings.”

A comfortable cabin with ample space for fishing kit under veranda, also there's a great local eatery and well equipped shop.

- Silvia, June 2016
Todd April 2016

“What a great place!”

Hidden away, and nice and quiet. Hiking in the woods and fishing were great, and the owners were very kind. Look forward to return visits.

- Todd, April 2016
Nicole February 2016

“The setting was fabulous.”

We were able to just leave our cabin and walk through the woods behind us on a crazy wood adventure following the stream that led us to sheldon woods. We also loved the basicness of it and we really enjoyed the log fire and the whole back to nature feel. The owner was very friendly but left us to it. It was nice to not have any signal and just escape without the kids and just enjoy doing very little. I think anyone that visits here needs at least two nights as it takes a night and a day to fully appreciate the simplicity of the cabin. This is a superb place for dog walking and kids as the exploring we did was fantastic. We will visit again when the kids are a little older and they can explore the woods and stream safely.

- Nicole, February 2016
Amanda October 2015

“Wonderful accommodation and scenery, very friendly owners.”

The Log Cabin is in a very isolated spot which is perfect if you want peace and quiet. The surroundings were fabulous and you can just sit and enjoy the tranquillity.

- Stephanie, June 2014
Vivienne March 2014

We hardly saw any one all week. It was so quiet I could've spent more time there; just me and my wife and the dogs. All together it was my idea of heaven. A great holiday. The cottage was set up for people with dogs. All together a wonderful time was had by all.

“The setting and surroundings were really nice.”

The Log Cabin was very homely.

- Kim, March 2010
Duncan December 2009

“Completely out of the way and peaceful, with Dartmoor and Exmoor on the doorstep.”

The place is naturally freezing in winter, but once the wood burner is roaring away it's snug as you like. The owners are a smashing couple and I dare say if I was into fishing and it was summer, I'd have liked their trout fishery too.

- Duncan, December 2009

Wendy March 2005

“The owners are really helpful and friendly people and have obviously taken care in restoring the Log Cabin.”

Using the woodburning stove, it was really warm at night and the back up convector heating wasn't needed during the night. I loved being able to walk out of the door and into the woods, the Blackdown Hills and the wonderful wildlife on the doorstep. The lake was also a great hit with my dog, and the area was really quiet, we met absolutely no-one when walking in the forests. Its a great holiday for people who want peace, quiet and nature.

- Wendy, March 2005
Dorcas August 2004

“The woods to the rear of the cabin were a great source of adventure for the children.”

They loved the streams, hills and trails. Welly boots are a must!! The coarse lake was great for the 9 year old - he was able to catch 4 or 5 roach in an evening. For those warm evenings, sitting out on the grass with a glass of wine waiting for the BBQ - perfect
