Lovely Character Dartmoor Cottage Just Below the Famous Haytor Rocks

10/10 Excellent

"The cottage is a lovely place to stay, comfortable beds and lovely bedding. The kitchen was equipped with everything anyone would need, even picnic baskets and cooling blocks. Loads of games, movies and books and even a piano for evening entertainment… or there’s the beautiful pub and pub garden right next door… a lovely place to spend a few hours, eat, drink and take in the views. Highly recommend "

Swifts Return – Cosy Dartmoor Hideaway with Wood-Fired Hot Tub & Pool

8/10 Good

"This is a third time we stayed in the apartment. As always a lovely experience. Pool and sauna were great as well as the log burner that kept us warm and cozy in the evenings. Bed is exceptionally comfortable. Will come back again for sure. Only downside was that no one swept up tons of berries on steps and in garden so when we arrived it was extremely slippery and unsafe, so had to do it ourselves. And also no frying pan to fry bacon so had to resort to frying in a wok."
