Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natasha Dec 30, 2024 #### A Beautiful Home in an Idyllic Location We loved this house for it’s peace and beauty generous size, layout and facilities it’s quiet rural location and land acreage to exercise our dogs with numerous walks from the doorstep. We had a bit of trouble working out how to use the Neff ovens and needed to look up the instruction manuals online which was no problem but would be nice to have a folder with all appliance manuals to make life easier. ##### Natasha ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria C. Jul 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous 50th getaway! We were blown away by this property! We had high expectations which were definitely met. It was a beautiful tardis, so many cool nooks and crannies, and differing spaces to hang out. All of the rooms were beautiful , comfortable and stylish. It was spotlessly clean throughout, bot a speck of dirt! Considering there were 8 adults who all love music, it was pretty quiet and the bedrooms are carefully spaced out. Cosy beds and bedding, loads of useful facilities. Con from Fresh Escapeswas super helpful and responsive, and kindly allowed us to access the house as soon as was ready to prepapre it for the birthday boy. Dartmoor is obviously stunning, and is well located for some amazing walks. Amazing garden and pool room. Would not hesitate to stay again, big thanks! ##### Maria C.
