"Perfect cottage in a great location - being near the main road did not impact our stay at all."
Plenty of space to relax and had everything we needed. Very comfortable beds.
Lovely owners who left us an amazing cake and some treats for our dogs.

"A beautiful cottage, ideal for our family."
Loved the upstairs room which was great for relaxing in the evening and also for our granddaughter to play in.
Brilliant location for exploring Dartmoor, the north Devon coast and good access to Cornwall via the A30.
Lovely hosts who could not have been more welcoming.
Thank you for a lovely stay.
Highly recommended.

"The smell of damp in the main bedroom was strong and made the room feel uncomfortable."
As you opened the kitchen cupboards the damp smell was over bearing. The en-suite bath is really not suitable even though it is as stated it really does need a door for privacy. The upstairs lounge was fabulous and the saving grace.
The owner was lovely and very helpful.
Thank you for your comments. We went into the bedroom at the end of your stay and could not smell any damp. It is an old stone cottage and if not aired by using the bathroom extractor fan and opening the windows in the mornings, humidity can build up. The kitchen cupboard in the corner just needed an airing as it is closed all the time.
In the property summary information, it is clearly stated that it is a hip bath and you can see the curtain in the photos. Children love the bath and think it's fun!

"This is a lovely cottage."
Although it’s near a main road the noise is not a nuisance. The upstairs lounge is a bonus, with scenic views and floor space to do jigsaws in the evenings. The downsides were there wasn’t a door on the master bedroom, just a curtain, so a slight lack of privacy. The en-suite shower had no headroom for the taller member of our party. However, the main bathroom’s shower had a brilliant power shower and we all used that one. We did set the fire alarm off whilst cooking. This was not due to me burning the dinner, but the alarm was close to the cooker! With the window open cooking was fine. The cottage was centrally located to travel to many walks and National Trust properties. We would definitely recommend this cottage. Sally greeted us with a warm welcome and the delicious cake was a lovely treat. Thank you Sally and Malcolm.

"This very lovely well equipped bungalow style cottage located on the road between Okehampton and Tavistock at the southern end of Sourton, despite mentioning this in the description road noise was not an issue."
Good off road parking and a private garden for relaxing.
Really nice inside with a comfortable lounge / dining area downstairs and a further lounge upstairs with great views, a well equipped kitchen and plenty of room to spread out.
Great walking from the door or use the great hourly bus service between Okehampton and Tavistock for further options.
The owners Sally and Malcolm live in the adjacent farm house and are very friendly and helpful. They provided a welcome tea tray with a lovely home baked cake.

"We had such a wonderful stay at Two Shoes Cottage and Sally and Malcolm are the most wonderful hosts."
The cottage had amazing character and the views from the room upstairs were stunning. We have recommended both cottages to everyone we know (we stay at Nuthatch to start with). It is really heartwarming to know holiday rentals like this exist. Thank you so much Sally and Malcolm and your gorgeous dogs :)

"We had a great stay in this lovely cottage and were warmly welcomed with cake after a late arrival."
It is even more spacious and comfortable than expected and had everything we needed. So close to the moor and several walking routes from the doorstep. Amazing views and sunsets from the top room. Our Dachshund loved the garden which was secure enough and appreciated the extra throws provided to protect the sofa. Thank you for making our holiday so enjoyable.

Good location, if you are a walker and love the outdoors. If you want adventure, then you will need a car.

Cottage is very convenient with lovely views from the mezzanine lounge . Lots of lovely walks on the door step. We would particularly recommend Lydford Gorge , Meldon loop and Sourton Tor. Local pub the Highwayman is definitely worth a visit .. full of character. Couldn’t ask for better hosts, Malcolm and Sally with lovely homemade cake and milk tea bags etc to start us off. They were on hand if we needed them. Kitchen was great and we ate in half the time. Bed was comfy , cottage was great. We’d love to come back … what better recommendation could you have!
