Dartridge Stables is a lovely, bright, airy but also cosy cottage. It is tastefully decorated and furnished and well equipped. The sofas in the lounge are very comfortable. The main bedroom is very spacious, but was spoilt for us by only having a double bed when there is plenty of room for a kingsize. It is true that the approach lane is long and vRead moreery bumpy, but we expected this - it is often the case when you want to stay somewhere "away from it all". Hide

Our 3rd Easter on the edge of Chulmleigh in a comfortable cottage ideal for a relaxing holiday but ideal base for exploring. Friendly, welcoming owner lives on site. We couldn't ask for more on any of our visits.

Acres of woods ideal for exploring with walks from the doorstep. Very much loved place to stay by our family. Hide

This is a very nice converted barn on a working farm. Very comfortable and spacious and well equipped.

Beautiful barn conversion in a great location. Ideal for visiting the whole of Devon and Somerset. Very homely with welcoming owners on hand if you need anything. One negative if you're precious about your car. It is very very muddy when wet and the long track to the property is potholes, rocks and gravel!
