Cadhay House near Ottery St Mary, close to Honiton, is an incredible privately owned historic house and gardens that are open to the public on bank holiday weekends.
Killerton House is the nearest National Trust property, with lovely gardens and the 800 acre Ashclyst Forest to explore.
Budleigh Salterton is another lovely little coastal town on the Jurassic Coast.
This is the scene that will greet you on arrival. Stunning!
Mount Pleasant Lodge is in a glorious setting with delightful, beautifully maintained gardens to enjoy.
The spacious kitchen/dining-room looks out over the gardens. The stairs in the corner lead to the living-room.
The extremely well-equipped kitchen is set at the far end of the dining-room. The utility-room is through the door to the right of the picture.
The main bedroom has plenty of space and a luxurious king-size bed.
This is the start of the Jurassic Coast at Sidmouth, a short drive from the other side of Honiton.
This is the view from the front of the Lodge - there are doors to the gardens from both the kitchen/dining-room and the living-room.
Cooking up a treat for friends and family is a pleasure in this lovely contemporary kitchen.
This really is just the place for an elegant dinner to celebrate your holiday.
Another view of the main bedroom.
You will be tempted to have a long lie in in this comfortable room.
The en suite wet-room is down a couple of steps from the main bedroom.
This is the other double bedroom, just as calming and comfortable as the master.
There is a door to the patio so you can lie in bed, and let the fresh morning air and the sound of birdsong in.
You will start each day relaxed and refreshed.
The newly refurbished bathroom is stunning.
A super spacious and modern bathroom awaits. Perfect for unwinding in after a full day of adventure.
The living-room has a choice of wonderfully comfortable reclining chairs, with a wood-burning stove for out-of-season evenings.
There is also a private sheltered area at the side of the Lodge. It is quite a suntrap. This area can be enclosed if you wish.
What a fabulous spot to enjoy a glass of something tasty.
More treats to make the most of your stay here.
Mount Pleasant Lodge has the most amazing gardens for guests to enjoy, stretching out right in front of it.
This is the pathway to the entrance for Mount Pleasant Lodge. Beautiful plants in pots, a little herb garden and the secluded patio around the far corner.
The pond and wildlife within are breathtaking.
An abundance of wildlife and activity can be enjoyed in this beautiful spot.
The fish are bursting with colour and activity.
The gardens are bordered with trees, and there are ancient woodlands on the doorstep too.
There are many tranquil and tucked-away private places for you to sit in the gardens.
A truly magical setting for a walk or a picnic on a sunny day, or even a wintery one!
Bursts of colour roam free throughout these beautiful gardens.

We loved staying at Mount Pleasant Lodge. We go self catering two or three times a year and found the Lodge to be the quietest, most comfortable and spacious accommodation we have ever stayed in. Gill and Terry made us feel most welcome and were never intrusive. We were free to explore the huge garden and enjoyed the lovely enclosed patio seating area. All the equipment such as the cooker and microwave were extremely easy to use and the recliner chairs in the lounge were so relaxing. Lots of places to visit round about and set in beautiful countryside. What more could you ask?...

This is a lovely property with great hosts who live in the house attached to the lodge! The grounds are beautiful and there are lots of walks nearby. It snowed while we were there which made the place look even more magical, and we were lucky enough to see deer grazing in the garden. We were sad to leave. Thank you Terry and Gill for making us feel so welcome!...

This was our first stay at Mount Pleasant Lodge. The owners were very pleasant and helpful. The lodge is set in a quiet location but within easy reach of the local towns and coast. The property was exceptional and the gardens stunning. Would recommend this property if you want a peaceful setting. ...

Just had a wonderful week at this amazing place. If you want complete rest and relaxation this is the place to go. I left feeling that the hosts Gill and Terry were old friends. I just hope that they will have space next year as I hope to revisit, and am not in the least surprised that many guests return year on year. Felt I was staying in a boutique hotel..it's very special....
