"It is a lovely, clean, and well-equipped apartment in a truly peaceful and picturesque area."
The owners are welcoming but not intrusive, on hand if there are any issues, not that we had any. We enjoyed our refreshing break at the Lynhay so much we intend to return fairly soon.
Thank you D &D

"The Linhay was fantastic."
We were welcomed with a Christmas tree and lights, which was lovely for our trip in December. The accommodation was clean and provided us with all essentials. Log burner was a treat for the cold evenings.
It was out 10 year wedding anniversary and it was made special with the stay at linhay. We will certainly be back.

"Just perfect."
Down a quiet lane, surrounded by countryside. Comfortable, warm, and most importantly for me dog friendly. Even the Oct weather cooperated, was lovely laying in bed hearing the rain lashing down, but waking up to a fine morning. Saw pheasants, squirrels, and lots of song birds. There are both cattle and sheep on the nearby moor, but honestly that’s to be expected. Couldn’t fault, would love to return one day.

"Remote location - perfect for walking our lab."
Very helpful owners.
Ideal location for visiting towns or country. Walk around Lydon Gorge (both ways) to really appreciate the location and do at least one long walk along the Dartmoor Way taking in the church on top of Brent tor. A must if you are fit and keen walkers.
We now miss the piece and tranquility (and the cheeky pheasant and his intended!).!

We enjoyed being able to walk out onto the moor and it was perfectly located for us to easily get to all the places we wanted to go. We will be back!

Danielle and David are charming hosts. Lydford Gorge is on the doorstep with NT tea room (open in season) and the Castle Inn is dog friendly and does great food. Our week was blessed with glorious spring sunshine, but regardless, we’ll be back. An ideal base to explore what Dartmoor has to offer.

"We had a wonderful stay at the Linhay."
The cottage was spacious for two people and a small dog, it had everything we needed and was very well presented, clean and comfortable. We were greeted with a cream tea which was just what we needed after our trip there. The hosts were friendly and welcoming but not intrusive. We felt like we could ask should there be anything we needed and it would be no problem, but the cottage was so well equipped we didn't need to ask for anything!
The location of the cottage was great for exploring Dartmoor with our dog, with walks straight out onto Gibbet hill and Black down. The cottage is quiet, peaceful and isolated, surrounded by farm land, nature and bird song. It's ideally located to visit many of the sights of Devon and Cornwall and return home to a comfortable rest.

"Cosy and well equipped comfortable hideaway with access onto the moor and a short walk from the gorge."
Weather was wet during my stay, but the accommodation felt like a home from home, so I still had a fabulous time. Recommended for those looking for a peaceful location. Around 1 1/2-2miles into Lydford which has 2 pubs, a farm shop and small shop on the campsite (depending on season).
The Linhay feels private, but is also near the owners house who are lovely and on hand if anything needed.
If you have a dog, you will need to accompany it when it has to go outside.
Would be happy to return again.

"Quiet peaceful and well appointed."
Feature for us was the busiest bird feeding station ever with a diverse range of visiting birds. The only downside was the lack of a direct access to the garden area which meant we could not let the dogs wander in and out as they like to do. Plenty of areas to walk the dogs on the property though. The hosts were friendly and welcoming.
