Multiple reviews mention the property being 'spotlessly clean' and 'very clean', indicating a high standard of cleanliness that guests are very satisfied with.
The location is described as peaceful and quiet, ideal for relaxation and sightseeing. However, some guests note the challenge of narrow lanes, which suggests a slightly less convenient aspect for those not used to rural Devon roads.
Guests consistently report a 'comfortable bed', 'comfortable seating', and an overall 'home from home feeling', reflecting a high level of comfort provided by the property.
The property is well-furnished with sufficient equipment, good WiFi, and a smart TV with Netflix. However, one guest mentioned a 'small shower' for larger individuals, which slightly impacts the score.

Absolutely perfect accommodation for both sightseeing and relaxing. The Loft was very comfortable and had a home from home feeling. The owners were very helpful and knowledgeable about the area and gave us great recommendations. If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely book.

Just what we wanted. A quiet peaceful location with access to nearby areas including pubs, shops and other attractions. The property was clean, we'll furnished, comfortable and sufficient equipment for two people. There is plenty of storage space and it is light and airy. The bed is comfortable and the WiFi signal is good. The owners are on hand should you require anything and after an initial introduction to make sure everything is okay you are left alone.Access is along narrow lanes with passing places but road traffic is light which helps with noise reduction.We enjoyed our stay to give us time to relax and not clock watch. The welcome pack was a nice touch and we would definitely return.
