About this property
… 1½ miles from Sandford, looking over rich meadows and wooded hedgerows, a gorgeous, Grade II listed, thatched, detached house with 16th cent. origins. At the back, a sheltered patio (table/chairs, barbecue, lighting), steps/gate up to enclosed lawn and, at the front, a rough field for energetic ball games. There are three houses nearby.

"We were really happy with the property which was more spacious than we had anticipated. because we have family in the area we sat 12 to dinner one evening and the kitchen/dining room coped well! The cricket pitch alongside the house worked wonders too!"

"This was our 3rd stay at West Henstill House and this time we were fortunate to stay for two weeks. We adore the cottage and its surroundings - it is incredibly peaceful and relaxing and the cottage itself is clean, comfortable and feels so homely. Sandford is very close with an excellent pub which we visited 4 times and can't recommend enough. Then we took many trips out near and far, as well as excellent walks across Dartmoor. Helpful Holidays were, as always, fantastic and always happy to help. We look forward to visiting this wonderful cottage again in the future! Thank you."

"10/10. I would recommend West Henstill House to everybody. The property was exceptional and location just perfect to get away from it all. We will be coming back!"
