Just a lovely place to stay with the loveliest view and accessibility to beautiful Tavistock which is full of charm and small family businesses.To be able to tour the moors and for us N.Trust properties nearby was perfect.Kim was kind and helpful and Hollyhocks was a cool oasis in the very hot weather and the pretty garden was equally shady and relaxing after our days outWe enjoyed excellent meals at the Cornwall lnn in Tavistock and Bearskake nearby Lake.

Very comfortable well equipped accommodation. Comfortable and large (not 4ft) bed. Excellent shower :-) Tavistock is a great base for exploring the area. Not a big town but big enough for food, drink, shopping etc.Easy check-in. Friendly, helpful hosts. Parking and EV charging.
