A superb cottage in a delightful setting, secluded and very private. So restful we did not switch on the TV all week.

This property is in a lovely, peaceful, location, right next to The National Trust's Greenways, which was once the home of Agatha Christie. The views from the property are fantastic, looking out over the River Dart, with the local steam train regularly passing in the valley below. There are numerous walks straight from the door and it also well situated for driving to other local places of interest. The property is furnished to a high standard, being very spacious and comfortable too. We really enjoyed our stay here....

What a wonderful week at this lovely secret hideaway. Certainly hope to return one day and would highly recommend to all. The views are simply amazing along with the peace and quiet. Greenway’s National Trust is just a short walk away along with the ferry and the house was all we had hoped for....

What can we say about this amazing place? We come every year and it never fails to lift our hearts. So comfortable, so peaceful and so very, very beautiful. That view! Wonderful walks on the doorstep. The steam train chuffing away down below. This year we were lucky enough to enjoy a firework display across the water (from the terrace) and the Train of Light having a test run. For us, this is the most wonderful place in the UK. Probably should have kept quiet about it, too late now!...
