"Thank you for a lovely week in a really cute cottage."
It was just right for me by myself (a couple would also be happy I’m sure). Beautiful location and views, lovely logburner, beautiful modern bathroom, and a friendly welcome.

"I had a wonderful time here at Post box cottage."
I went for business and pleasure and achieved so much positive work for myself and my wellness in a cosy, warm and well kept environment. So personally for me, this was an amazing stay.The property was clean and the homemade baked cake was so kind. Only small issue I had was there wasn’t any wood provided for the fire and the drive way access was very bumpy, but that’s just for me. And fortunately I have an suv. Otherwise a great stay, thank you so much!

"Post Box Cottage, a beautiful, quirky and cosy cottage in the depths of Dartmoor, which means narrow roads, beautiful walks and stunning scenery close by."
The cottage is well equipped and welcoming, the kitchen serves its purpose with everything close to hand, the dining area is tastefully furnished and the lounge perfect, no doubt in the colder months the log burner will help provide that little extra touch of cosiness. When you climb the steep curved staircase you are greeted by a modern and spacious landing converted to a luxurious bathroom, there is a large shower and inviting bath. The adjacent bedroom is spacious and the king size bed comfortable. We were the first guests at Post Box cottage and enjoyed our stay, our two four legged friends loved the long walks but struggled with the short late evening dark walk for convenience purposes. There is courtyard parking adjacent to the cottage but access is difficult and quite steep particularly if you have a low car. There is additional parking close by but this can also be a challenge. Thank you John, We look forward to returning to this happy place, IMYHC
