"The lodge was clean and tidy all the facilities are there but we were very ..."
The lodge was clean and tidy all the facilities are there but we were very disappointed to fine that the carpet in the living area had been removed and the floor was just grey stone tiling which made the room look very cold and uninviting which in our opinion is not a luxury lodge shelf needed in shower for gel and shampoo and bedroom curtains should be thicker or have blackout blinds

"Ash Lodge was a fantastic base for our holiday, it was like a home from home and is just lovely."
The facilities are great and we really just enjoyed being there. The owners were so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be going back there. Our dog enjoyed it too!!

"Beautiful spot, very comfortable unit and extremely clean and very well equipped."
Site is a bit difficult to find but it is very central for the coast. Will definitely return.

"A lovely site, clean, comfortable and warm accommodation with easy access to other areas of Devon for those wanting to explore."
Highly recommended.

"The lodge was well maintained and had amazing views from the lounge."
This was our second visit as we loved it so much last year. Perhaps the only improvement could be new mattresses on the single beds. They were very hard and uncomfortable for 2 adults, though the double mattress was good.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the amazing views at Ash Lodge. We have recently changed the mattresses in the property but understand that this can be quite subjective. We hope to see you back again! Property Owner

"We found the dining room chairs very heavy to move around and hard to sit on for long."
Otherwise we found the property bright and open, loved the double patio doors at the front. It was ideal for our weeks stay in Devon, with plenty of nice places to eat in the evening in close proximity. We also enjoyed being able to go for a swim at the end of the day, as the weather was so nice.

"Lovely place to stay, beautiful views and gorgeous accommodation."
The staff were very friendly and hospitable. The only downside was the beds were a little firm and a bit snug on length for taller people. We would definitely recommend and plan to stay again in the future.
The beds are a standard size so not sure how we get longer beds. Pleased you enjoyed your holiday other than that. Property Owner

"Excellent stay and the only fault would be the double bed mattress springs seemed to be sticking out quite a bit."

"Arrived to a friendly welcome, which set the tone for the whole holiday."
Lodge was modern, clean and had everything that you could ever need. Our dog loved going to find the pheasants every morning and saying hello to the chickens. FaceTimed my parents while we were there, they loved it and booked a break for November. Thank you for a lovely stay. We will definitely be returning!
Fabulous pleased everyone enjoyed the holiday including the dog… Welcome back anytime. Property Owner

Thank you for your feedback, we are really pleased to hear you enjoyed your visit. We are sorry you found the bed to be uncomfortable, whilst mattress comfort is a personal preference previous guests have found it to be very comfy! Property Owner

"Stayed in Ash Lodge at the height of the 2021 season in August."
We were so impressed with the lodge- really beautifully furnished and equipped. One of the best accommodations that we have stayed in. The campsite Is big and busy so there are campers closer than the pictures in the listing suggest, but we quickly got used to this and then just felt guilty and a bit smug at our comfort on the rainy days! The kids benefited from the facilities on the site- using the pool and play area, which allowed the adults some relaxing staying at base camp days. The location is rural but close to all amenities and easy to access all of south Devon’s attractions. We ate a great meal at the Ten Tors pub nearby. The only minor niggle was the mattress on the double bed- very uncomfortable- but we discovered after a few bad sleeps that the mattress had been turned over and isn’t designed to be so- we turned right way and was fine after. A great holiday and we would recommend and return!

"The site was excellent and the views from the lodge was lovely."
The lodge was fabulous and had everything you could possibly need. The Wi-Fi was excellent and useful, as was the internet access TV. The weather was kind to us and we managed to visit a number of places. The farm is close to all amenities, shops, restaurants etc. We thought Newton Abbot was a good base to get around Devon. We will be back and can highly recommend the site and the lodge.

"A real five star experience."
Washing liquid, towels, t-towels, dishwasher soaps, soap, kitchen roll, toilet roll, hover, iron, dustpan and brush, broom, ironing board, heated towel racks, under floor heating, easy internet access, tv - brilliant, you can bake cakes, cook roast dinners or simply fry up your breakfast. Shop on site with great farm produce meat - tasted second to none, .... the list keeps going. Home from home but five star. Greeted with fresh farm eggs and cupcakes. Soooo clean and fresh. Recommend all day long. Thank you for a fabulous experience. The best! Oh even a washing machine. Went home with all clean clothes dried on the clothes horse provided. Lovely. Did I mention beautiful surroundings and lovely people. Its a farm just on the outskirts of Newton Abbot - Five minutes to pubs and shops - Fabulous.

"Fabulous lodge!"
Brand new this year, all facilities included, beds made up, lots of towels, a good supply of loo rolls, and in the kitchen there are tea towels, dishcloths and sponges, and washing up liquid. Tea, coffee, milk, homemade muffins and fresh eggs all waiting for us when we arrived. Dog bowl provided for our girlie, along with treats and poo bags. Had central heating on once as temperatures dropped, and this works a treat. Lodge is extremely spacious, settees and beds all very comfortable. Two points that should be mentioned on the description are that the lodge does incorporate a washing machine, as well as a dishwasher. There is a full fridge, and freezer. And there is ample parking for two or even three cars beside each lodge. Very good accommodation, had a lovely week.

"Ash lodge was lovely, spotlessly clean and looked almost new."
The swimming pool was warm and in a lovely sun trap. We didn't know there was a BBQ so it may be good to add this to the listing and it states there is only parking for one car although there is definately more. The only thing that would have been useful would have been some information about the local area, nearest shop/pub etc. I would definately recommend this to other people wanting to explore south Devon, close to lots of tourist attractions and in a very quiet/peaceful setting.

About the location
NEWTON ABBOT
Teignmouth 5 miles; Shaldon 5 miles; Torquay 10 miles; Exeter 18 miles; Plymouth 31 miles
Newton Abbot is situated in the heart of The English Riviera, with its mild climate and thriving palm trees. The ancient market town now offers plenty of modern shops, both local and well-known high street chains and six leading brand supermarkets. There's also a racecourse where National Hunt racing takes place from spring until autumn, with craft fayres during the winter. Newton Abbot has a unique pub, the tap house and bottle shop, located in the building of what was a traditional working malthouse offering arguably the finest bottled beers in Devon. The seaside towns of Teignmouth, Shaldon and Dawlish are nearby and are fantastic destinations for families. Spend a day on the beach building sand castles and walk the impressive Victorian Pier at Teignmouth. The National Trust houses of Bradley Manor, Coleton Fishacre and Compton Castle and many others are well worth a visit, whilst the highlight of your stay will undoubtedly be the stunning beaches around Torquay and the many hidden coves such as Meadfoot, Oddicombe and further afield the pretty Ness Cove. And of course, the South West Coast Path provides stunning seascapes across the bay, with a popular stretch from Torquay Harbour to Daddyhole Plain, passing through Beacon Cove where Agatha Christie used to swim as a girl. Newton Abbot provides a fabulous base for an English seaside holiday all year round.
