  • "This property has been superbly renovated."

    Superior craftsmanship & materials combined with good taste. Everything works as it should. Excellent. The only problem is beyond your control. The parked cars in the road by the parking area make getting in and out dangerous by obscuring the view in both directions. We found this difficult.

  • "Wir haben uns ausgesprochen wohl gefühlt."

    Das Cottage ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Hervorzuheben wäre die sehr gute Lage für Ausflüge in alle Richtungen. Und nicht zu vergessen der sehr empfehlenswerte Pub genau gegenüber. Wir hatten unsere eigenen Räder dabei, die wir sehr viel benutzt haben. Aufgrund der Topographie sind E-Bikes von Vorteil.

    Thank you for your kinds words regarding your recent stay at Church Hill Cottage. We're so glad that you found the cottage comfortable and that you enjoyed the location, especially for cycling around the local area. We hope to welcome you back in the future! Viele Grüße, M&S Property Owner

  • "Better knives for buttering?"

    But if that's the biggest quibble then I think its safe to say we had a great time! Lovely area, house is great and beautifully decorated.

    We are so glad that you had a lovely time and that you enjoyed the surrounding area of Dartmoor and Tavistock. We've made a note about the knives for buttering. We've now added a butter knife in to the cutlery draw! Property Owner

  • "We could only come Monday to Friday but had a wonderful time."

    The cottage is perfect to get straight up on the Moors or cycle down the road and you're right onto Drakes Cycle Trail. We spent three days cycling the trail as there was so much history to learn about and a few too many pubs along the way. It's also within easy reach of Plymouth if you need city life. No problems at all with the cottage facilities or cleanliness and although it is a bit big for just the two of us (left booking a bit late) we wouldn't hesitate to return.

    Thank you for your feedback and we're so glad that you not only enjoyed the cottage but also the surrounding area! We hope to welcome you back again soon. Regards, M&S Property Owner

  • "Church Hill Cottage was comfortable and well equipped."

    It is located in an ideal location for easy access to Tavistock and Dartmoor. Situated directly opposite the Whitchurch Inn, which is a very good country pub with a great atmosphere, providing excellent food, especially a fine Sunday roast. Off road parking space at the cottage was an added bonus, as were the very comfortable beds and the log burning stove, which kept the cottage warm during an extremely cold and wet week. We hope to return in the future. Many thanks.
