"A very comfortable and enjoyable stay."
We would happily return. Shilstone Lodge is finished to a high standard, very clean and in a good, quiet, leafy farm setting. Lovely to find a cream tea, flowers, wine and a warm welcome on arrival. Good days out, pub lunches and walks locally. Highly recommended.

"Loved our stay at Shilstone Lodge, the lodge was very clean and had every thing you would need."
There were fresh flowers and more important scones, cream and jam, the scones were the best I've every tasted. It was great to find out a little about farming from John and Jill. Hopefully will be able to get back there soon.

"A lovely property."
Spacious rooms and comfortable, particularly the bed and well equipped with everything one might need. Some nice unexpected finishing touches. Flowers in the rooms, a cream tea on arrival plus treats for our dog and water and feeding bowls in the hallway. The hosts were friendly and welcoming.
We can't recommend this property highly enough. We have stayed in a lot of holiday cottages over the years and this is at the top of the list.

"Shilstone lodge was absolutely fantastic, we loved every minute."
The lodge was exceptionally clean with everything you need for a relaxing time away. John & Jill had even left new shower gels in each shower, freshly made scones, cream & jam and also Prosecco for our arrival which was very much welcomed. There was a beautiful bunch of lilies & roses left in the living area and freshly cut roses in each of the bedrooms.
Tea, coffee & sugar were also left.
The location was very peaceful in a farm yard sounding way

If you are worried about driving on twisty narrow roads and about scratching your car when your mirrors are in the hedges down the narrow lanes this is not the area of Devon for you

"We highly recommend Shilston Lodge the owner has taken great care to lovingly decorate and carefully consider what is required to ensure you have a relaxing, comfy, stress free break!"
The warm welcome of homemade scones, milk in the fridge and a little something for the dog was enough to make us feel at home for the week. The kitchen was well stocked with good quality utensils, we could have easily made a roast if we wished. Beds were comfy with soft clean linen, and towels nice and fluffy. Good hot showers too! The property was spotless with plenty of handwash/antibac. The location of the lodge is perfect for exploring the local area, and getting out onto the moors. We had a truly wonderful break in one of the best cottages we have stayed to date! Thank you.
