I was upgraded to a two bedroom cottage a couple of doors along. It was cosy, like a home from home. Very modern, clean, quiet and comfortable. Everything one could need. The location was great for the English Riviera and Dartmoor. I stayed in...

Quiet, cosy, had everything in it that we needed. Brilliant to have outdoor space, and even a swimming pool. It’s in a quiet, older part of the village - really handy for one of the pubs in Marldon and conveniently located for the things we wanted...
