Guests consistently praise the Erme lodge for its tranquil setting, cosy atmosphere, and the attentive hosts. The surrounding nature and wildlife, including sightings of barn owls and deer, add to the charm of the property. The lodge is well-equipped and clean, with a hot tub frequently mentioned as a highlight. The thoughtful touches, such as fresh eggs and milk, enhance the experience, making it a highly recommended stay for peace and relaxation.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviewers frequently mention the immaculate condition of the lodge, highlighting its cleanliness as a standout feature. The attention to detail in maintaining a tidy and hygienic environment is evident and greatly appreciated by guests.

The lodge's location is celebrated for its quietness, natural beauty, and wildlife sightings. Its proximity to Plymouth and other attractions in Devon is noted, although one review mentions a poorly maintained access road, which slightly impacts the score.

Comfort is a recurring theme in the reviews, with guests finding the lodge cosy and the beds comfortable. The space is well-utilised, and even taller guests have found the sleeping area to be more than adequate.

The lodge is well-equipped with high-quality furnishings and essentials like utensils and a hairdryer. The hot tub is a favourite among guests, though there was a minor issue with its operation that was quickly resolved. The provision of wood for the hot tub is also noted.

Hosts are commended for their thoughtfulness, providing essentials and additional treats like fresh eggs and milk. While some guests received gifts and hampers, it is important to note that such gestures, while delightful, are not guaranteed for every stay.

About this property

Holbeton 1 mile. The perfect hideaway for a family retreat and settled within a picturesque valley, a unique haven ticks all the boxes, Erme, named after the River Erme, offers luxury glamping at its finest. With room for all the family, stylish interiors, a luxury wood-fired hot tub and the dreamiest location, it really does make for the idyllic family getaway. As soon as you leave the car and wander along the path to find your quirky home from home, all your worries of everyday life will simply melt away. Step inside and prepare to fall in love with the chic interiors. The cabin boasts a homely family living with a dining table that's perfect for family meals. Gather around after a day of adventures and share special stories, or why not pull out a board game and enjoy some time away from your screens. Prepare a delicious dinner in the well-equipped kitchenette or cook over the barbecue. Nestled in a rural position close to the village of Holbeton, South Devon, is this a one-of-a-kind, hand-built glamping cabin. Boasting a contemporary, open-plan design with two mezzanine bedrooms, this little home has all you need for a memorable escape with loved ones. Upon arrival you are greeted by communal parking; be sure to take a moment to appreciate the panoramic forest and valley views, peppered with wildlife. A short stroll down the winding path will lead you to the entrance door and into the open-plan living space filled with quality fixtures and fittings. Prepare a meal in the kitchenette before sitting at the dining table and toasting to a much-needed break with your loved ones. Alternatively, head outside and conjure up a grilled feast on the barbecue or fire pit before relaxing in the hot tub and admiring the serene setting and abundant wildlife including a resident Barn Owl. When the yawning begins, head inside and wash off the day’s adventures in the shower room before climbing the rustic tree-trunk staircase to the king-size and twin beds to rest on crisp Egyptian cotton sheets. Refreshed in the morning and on request, you can indulge yourself with fresh pastries delivered to your door, or why not treat yourself to a locally sourced hamper or two. Erme cabin truly offers the perfect space for you and your loved ones to reconnect in nature. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1118201, together sleeping up to 10 guests.

Holbeton, with its meandering streets and thatched homes, is a charming place to visit at any time of year. The village has a shop/Post Office and a bar, and the picture-perfect architecture adds to the atmosphere. The village church was built in the 14th century and features beautiful stained glass, which adds to the delicate atmosphere of the Devonian settlement while also juxtaposing grandeur with its enormous steeple. The River Erme lies nearby, and the sandy beach at Mothecombe is a short drive away. The Dartmoor National Park, as well as the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, are both nearby and provide a multitude of outdoor activities.

    We loved our stay and will be back!

  • Kayleigh

    The hosts were lovely, friendly and extremely kind. They done way more than what a host is obligated to do and I couldn't be more thankful. The facilities were lovely and clean. And we enjoyed seeing the chickens and dogs when they came to visit. It's a lovely quiet place with a stunning view. With walks and beaches close by. I would definitely stay again with a group of friends or family. Thank you to Kim and Ant for a lovely stay!
