Originally built for the Estate gardener, this pretty cottage has been extended substantially in recent years in keeping with the existing architecture.
Occupying an idyllically private and secluded spot beneath the ancient Oaks, Beech and Wellingtonia, Garden Cottage is a perfect choice for hotel escapism. It also provides an ideal retreat for a family - offering a completely safe haven for children within the garden walls. Also ideal for dogs as the walls will allow them to run, but not run off !

- Entrance hall/lobby for fishing/riding/walking/dog clobber
- Large 'farmhouse kitchen' with tiled floors, fully fitted units, dishwasher and washing facilities, electric hob and Aga Range.

Also, if you would like to bring the whole family, 2 legs and 4, we also have Stables close to the Cottage if you would like to bring your own horse(s). Livery available from £25 per day, per horse.
Wake each morning to the sound of birdsong and breathe in the wisteria and rose infused air which covers the bedroom windows. A tunnel of sweet peas divides the garden between a large lawn area complete with relaxing garden furniture, umbrellas etc.,
Outside the garden are the private walks through the woods and down to the tranquil River Dart. In the evening enjoy a cocktail and savour the sight of the Red Deer picking on the front cottage lawn.
Garden Cottage is a unique holiday opportunity whether you are seeking total solace and relaxation or a base to explore the wonders of Dartmoor and beyond.
In addition to the 'self-catering' aspect of the accommodation, you will also have the flexibility to utilise the facilities of the hotel whether they be for restaurant breakfast, light lunch on the terrace, afternoon tea or dinner. Dogs are most welcome too.
