    Only a little niggle, settee not too comfortable after a while especially with a larger husband. Maybe a foot stool would be a useful addition. A few more knives forks and spoons so you dont have to use the dishwasher so often or wash up.

    Hello Thank you for your review, we do have a footstool that is presently being re-upholstered so that will be in the cottage soon, and we will get some more cutlery in there so thank you for letting us know. Helen and Stephen Property Owner

    Perfect as an upside down cottage, giving us the wonderful countryside views (including sheep, cows, horses and a very cute chicken). Excellent location for places of interest to visit. Helen and Stephen left us a delicious selection of treats as a welcome on arrival, including dog treats for our Retriever/Labrador! She loved playing in the big garden too. Thanks again and we look forward to seeing you again. Allison, Richard & Hazel.

    As a note the area by the bedroom is gated off fully so you can let your dogs out at night. The picture only shows 1 set of gates around the concrete area but it is fully closed off. TV in bedroom and lounge. Great views and great place to stay.

    Only constructive feedback, it would have been great to have some kind of pouffe or an extra living room chair to be able to put your feet up and relax by the fire. Views were wonderful and great to be able to let the dogs roam freely down in the allocated grassed area. The wardrobe in the bedroom could have been full size to allow for dresses rather than having to hang them on the back of bedroom door. All in all though a wonderful place to stay, thank you.

    Peaceful with plenty of room for two. Our only downfall was our dog was unsure of field because of telegraph pole with power lines. Apparently dogs lose their sense of smell so lost many balls in the field. Would highly recommend. Thankyou

    Hi Justine So glad you enjoyed your holiday.

  • "Absolutely brilliant stay!"

    The place is absolutely gorgeous and the photos don't even do it justice. We didnt see the owners during our stay but were greeted with a little note with their number, bread, milk, biscuits and dog treats. Such a lovely touch! The views are stunning with a balcony that leads to an enclosed garden that is perfect for the dog. Fire place is stunning and real feature, perfect on those chilly nights. The bed is so comfortable and huge, didn't want to leave! There has been some real thought about how the practical the house is, it's the little things like the dressing table being well lit with plug sockets underneath. Bathroom was my favorite room, even the mirror lights up and has a Bluetooth speaker. it really is a luxury stay and is absolutely spotless. Highly recommend this to anyone. Thank you for having us.

    It was perfect for what we needed for a few days of walking and relaxing. The owners have really put a lot of thought into the layout and amenities. We were so comfortable here that we definitely would love to come back again. Having the outside space for our dog was a game changer to as it was perfectly fenced for his needs. He could go out and play and we could watch him from the terrace. The owners left us a nice welcome package too which was a super nice touch! We couldn't recommend this place more!

    Beautiful views, warm and really well kitted out (I was living the dream with a NEFF oven!). Helen is a great host and really welcoming and relaxed. We came both times in November and did some great walks on Dartmoor and back to a woodburner and a film, perfect before a busy Christmas season at work.

  • "The property throughout was extremely clean and both the bathroom and kitchen were excellent."

    The bed was probably the most comfortable we have ever encountered. The owners left a welcome pack (a very thoughtful touch) and they also provided an information pack on the local area which included their own favourite places to visit as well as places to eat. There is a balcony off the upstairs kitchen/lounge area with lovely views over the fields. If the weather had been a little better we would certainly have made more use of it. The owners live in the house next to the cottage and are on hand if needed, which is reassuring. A lovely property in a peaceful spot and we can thoroughly recommend a stay at Langham House Cottage.

Step up into the property and first discover the beautiful ground-floor bedroom where a luxurious super-king-size bed presents a welcoming spot to wind down in at the end of the day, with ground-floor underfloor heating to keep you warm.

Opposite this room is the stunning ground-floor bathroom; take time to indulge in a relaxing soak in the large double-ended tub with a handheld shower, or feel refreshed with a shower in the large walk-in corner enclosure in here too.

Follow the stairs up to the first floor where you'll spend long relaxing evenings with your loved one, with a homely woodburning stove perched in front of the feature wall, and a Smart TV great for watching the latest Netflix release while snuggled up on the large sofa.

Head across the room to the stylish fitted kitchen and dining area where a host of appliances are at your fingertips for rustling up delicious romantic meals for two.

On a balmy summer evening, take the conversation outside to the lovely first-floor decking, great for soaking up the last of the evening sun as you drink in the incredible rolling countryside views alongside your glass of wine, with an enclosed lawn space below too, great for letting your dog stretch their legs.

The hamlet of Liftondown is just a stone's throw from the village of Lifton where you can find all you need from the fabulous farm shop, Strawberry Fields Lifton, selling locally sourced fresh produce, perfect for your self-catered stay, along with several pubs including The Arundell Arms which features in the Good Pub Guide.

Enjoy a day exploring the nearby town of Launceston, once the capital of Cornwall, it is home to the imposing remains of a Norman castle dominating the skyline, with two town trails to help you discover the heritage of this market town.

Hop onto the wonderful Launceston Steam Railway for a journey back in time in a restored Victorian carriage, taking you through the unspoilt countryside of Cornwall, with Newmills Farm Park being a stop on the way so you can enjoy a fun day out before catching the train home.

Wildlife enthusiasts won't want to miss a chance to see the cute creatures at the Tamar Otter & Wildlife Centre where British and Asian Short Clawed Otters live along with fallow deer, wallabies, meerkats and several birds of prey, an exciting day out for all!

Walkers can delight in exploring the stunning Tamar Valley, Dartmoor National Park and Bodmin Moor, all of which boast a wealth of marked walking trails, or try something new like going canoeing along the River Tamar.

Whatever you decide to do, return each day to the wonderful Langham House Cottage.
