We got here late last night. Nikki was very helpful. Everything was as she said. The beds were comfortable and all was clean and tidy. We loved the quaintness of the place and am looking forward to a hike that overlooks the ocean.

Visiting out of season on Dartmoor it was still well set up for guests. The location itself was perfect with food and drink just next door. The guys expect muddy clothes and boots after a day on the moors, and couldnt be more helpful to offer local advice. The hot tub was fantastic, offering a great chance to chill after knocking up some miles, with a lovely fire place to warm and chat after. Thanks for a great stay
