"We enjoyed our stay very much ."

Some of the previous feedback made us slightly apprehensive. It is a dated property but it has a bright lounge area the kitchen is again dated but clean and functioning. The bedrooms are good although the central heating system means they don't warm up as the thermostat is upstairs . The only thing I was not keen on is carpet in the toilet and bathroom. It would be more hygienic to have tiles or laminate. But great location lots of wonderful walks nearby and friendly people around .Thank you

"We picked the property as it had two bathrooms."

One was out of action because the carpet was saturated. We phoned about this and left a message twice and no one got back to us. We went to reception and it was closed. We emailed Sykes and got no response. Not what was advertised and absolutely no customer service or support. Absolutely shocking.

"Well Sykes this was a big fail on your part !"

We would never stay at this property again. You did not inform us that both bathrooms were overlooking storage room that cleaners use daily there was no privacy made us very uncomfortable ! You also double booked property after first week we had guy trying to open key safe at 9pm Saturday night he knocked the door and was baffled that we were staying there he was moved to another property ! This is totally unacceptable ! Any people thinking of booking this property think twice if you value your privacy ! And another issue you can only have central heating on for 2 hrs at a time so when it switches off when your in bed you have to run upstairs to switch back on why was there no mention of this ? Could not use TV in double bedroom either not good enough ! Why was there no mention of these issues in the advert very misleading

"Lovely property, very clean."

Made to feel like a home from home from the minute we walked through the door. Onsite facilities are great, handy little shop selling the essentials. Friendly pub on site too. Would highly recommend.

"Tom who we delt with was very helpful had a small problem with the hot water sorted straight away."

We were asked to change accommodation as some how was double booked. The property we switched to was lovely a Swiss style property would recommend accommodation and site had a great time. Graham.

"We had a slight issue with getting the high chair and stair gate we had ordered."

But this was resolved. The accommodation itself was excellent. Very clean, great location. Everything we could ask for

"I think the beds were lovely and comfortable,but it would be better to have a mattress cover on the mattress rather than sleeping on the mattress with just a sheet."

"Property up to the standard we have come to expect from Sykes sites at Honicombe."

Happy to recommend to others. We did have problems trying to work out how heating system worked - needed to put it on Boost to get any heat. There were no instructions provided as to what we should be doing. Unable to get wifi to work with the codes provided - we got 'bad passwork'. As only brief stay, didn't make use of other facilities on this occasion.

Honicombe Holiday Lodges

Honicombe Holiday Lodges are a collection of eight homely abodes, situated in an elevated position on the edge of the Tamar Valley AONB in St Ann’s Chapel, near the bustling town of Callington in Cornwall. Boasting large, shared fields with private balconies with furniture where you can while the days away with a glass of wine, reverse-level interior, and access to on-site facilities, Honicombe Holiday Lodges provide the idyllic spot to unwind and spend quality time with loved ones and four-legged friends within the stunning Cornish countryside. With most lodges featuring a barbecue or luxurious hot tubs, perfect for melting your worries away beneath the starry skies, you'll find the ultimate setting for both relaxation and unforgettable evenings spent with loved ones. Set off on one of the many scenic hiking or cycling trails and footpaths right from your doorstep, you won’t have to venture far to fill your days here. Spend your mornings utilising the marvellous selection of on-site facilities; take a refreshing dip in the indoor heated swimming pool, work up an appetite in the fully equipped gym, or challenge your friends to some fun in the indoor games room featuring a miniature arcade. If you opt for some home cooking, stock up on the essentials at the on-site shop, while the kids blow off some steam at one of the exciting play parks. For special occasions, treat your loved ones to a delicious meal at the on-site pub, The Honicombe Arms, where you can savour some hearty pub grub in a welcoming setting. The Tamar Valley Donkey Park rests less than a stone’s throw away from the properties where you can get up close and personal with some of their furry residents including pigs, rabbits, guinea pigs and of course, donkeys. If you prefer to immerse yourself in history, spend the day touring the grounds of the National Trust owned Cotehele, a Tudor House with medieval roots and a working mill on a historic quay set within a magnificent garden with valley views. For impressive views of granite structures, visit Foggintor Quarry ahead of experiencing Dartmoor Prison Museum. Further afield in Golitha Falls National Nature Reserve traverse the vast expanse of the stunning countryside and be sure to relish the unspoiled beauty at Golitha Falls waterfall; alternatively, head north to Moor View Alpacas or uncover the naturally formed tower of the infamous Cheesewring (Stowes Hill). Well-located to also stop off in the popular destinations of Plymouth, Looe and Polperro, Honicombe Holiday Lodges make the ideal base for families and friends alike to bask in the irresistible tranquillity of Cornwall.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

About the location

CALLINGTON

Tavistock 9 miles; Launceston 11.5 miles; Plymouth 14.6 miles.

Callington is a Cornish market town, rich in mining heritage and overlooked by Kit Hill, the highest point in the area, donated to the people of Cornwall by Prince Charles to celebrate the birth of Prince William. From the top of Kit Hill there are fabulous views across south-east Cornwall as far as Plymouth Sound. Callington is set in the heart of the Tamar Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and offers a good selection of shops, inns and cafes, as well as being the home of Ginsters Cornish pasties. A few miles away, the quaint village of Calstock clings to the steep banks of the river Tamar and is dominated by the splendid Calstock Railway Viaduct, a giant 11-arched stone construction supporting one of Britain’s most picturesque branch lines running through the Tamar Valley. Other interesting places along the river are Cotehele, a beautiful historic house and gardens owned by the National Trust with a small quay and inn, and Morwhellam Quay, a theme park that staged a living history production for the BBC and where visitors can explore the rich mining heritage and watch blacksmiths, potters and craftsmen at work. The pannier market town of Tavistock is only nine miles from Callington and is well worth a visit on your way to a day’s walk on Dartmoor. A splendid base to explore south Cornwall and West Devon.
