Little Silver Fox Reviews

Lovely place to stay. So peaceful & quiet with amazing views. Lots of places to explore nearby. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back to stay again!
Joseph
We loved Little Silver Fox!
Fantastic views over the valley, incredibly peaceful and quiet and also very private despite there being 3 other huts nearby. Hot tub was a fantastic addition that just made the place special. Great owners, superb welcome pack and all the info you needed was sent in advance. Oh, and getting to and from the hut everyday using the golf buddy was immense fun.
Ronald
Our stay was absolutely marvelous! Very nice cottage with splendid view and a lot of privacy
This was an idyllic place, peaceful, beautiful scenery, the hut had everything we needed. Have you ever been to a place where you dont want to leave, well this is it! We are looking to book again.
Jacqui
We had a fantastic time at Little Silver Fox, It's a lovely site for couples to get away to relax. P When you arrive your greated by Peter & Lisa who are a friendly and easy going couple. You go by golf buggy to your accommodation. Waiting there is a well stocked welcome basket with fresh homemade bread. The hut was spotless and very comfortable, and let's not forget the hot tub,the highlight of every evening with a cool glass of wine ,Magical. We will definitely be returning in the future. Jacqui & Steve.
Our seconds stay at Fox. What a wonderful adventure. Hosts are wonderful, even helped us with some tasty local recommendations. Soaking in the tub most evenings after a day of walking or doing nothing, starring into the stars and listening to the evening chorus of wildlife.

This is a little slice of heaven the setting is beautiful and if you want to relax then this is a perfect place to do so. It was nice to be welcomed by the host and the basket of goodies was a lovely touch in the hut. The hot tub was perfect and we enjoyed most evenings watching the stars with the chiminea keeping us warm. Highly recommend a stay here.

This is an amazing getaway for a couple in need of a break. Lovely little romantic hut with a wonderful view, relaxing and private hot tub, the little golf cart just adds a bit of fun to it all. Just perfection.
Most adorable shepherds hut ever! Our stay was amazing and the thought process behind the property was just lovely. Easy to book.
Robert
Just what we needed a relaxing few days away highly recommend
Jordan
We loved our stay in the little silver fox and hope to come back and stay again soon. Cleanliness was excellent. Overall a really relaxing and enjoyable stay.
It's a lovely place and quiet and fantastic . The couple was fantastic very helpful and we will going back again
Amazing place even more beautiful then discribed location facailities hosts all fantastic will be going back
Everything about the location was perfect. So restful and quiet, and Peter & Lisa just left us to relax in peace with no intrusion whilst giving everything of service. Only downside is Sykes' email bombardment for feedback and comment I use my 'phone as an alarm clock and so it is next to the bed with the volume on. Getting woken by an email alert at 2am every other night is really not appreciated. Sykes need to programme their computer to send their spam out during office hours, not the small hours. NB Sykes is an agent not the site owneroperator. The site owners and the site are awesome!
We had a lovely warm welcome from Lisa & Peter when we arrived, We stayed in the little silver fox it was very clean & comfortable, we had everything we needed! The welcome basket was a lovely surprise, The views were Amazing it was so quite & peaceful we loved every minute and will definitely return next year .
It was the second time we stayed at the Little Silver Fox and it was as good as the first time! Highly recommended!
What was a lovely little break in Devon was massively overshadowed by the shambles that is Sykes and the way they go about their business. I booked this 2 night stay for 450 back in June, but was quickly sent a confirmation email suggesting I had booked the incorrect dates, which I most definitely did not do. After calling and emailing Sykes a number of times, no one answered, I was left in a position where I just had to book the holiday with the 'new' dates. The price rocketed to 1135 for 2 nights. As nice as this quirky little place is, it certainly isn't worth over 600 per night, as the owner was quick to agree. The owner's are nice, they got in touch and tried to help, but they also hit a brick wall when it came to asking Sykes what happened, they suggested it was me who made the wrong booking and the surge in prices is just to be expected at this time of year. It's a shambles quite frankly, don't trust them at all. You'll end up with hidden fees and charges as they try to fill their pockets, sadly I'll never ever be going with them ever again and neither should you. As someone who's mental health has been dreadful this past year, I was really looking forward to this, but all these troubles and the financial burden of it has actually set me back about 10 steps in my recovery... it is really such a shame. I will continue to try recover and try to forget all about this, but I feel it's important to help others not make the mistakes i made, in thinking I could trust these people. Adam

What a wonderful stay highly recommend it. The owners were so welcoming, and the welcome hamper was amazing. The hot tub was great, and the views were spectacular. Such a cosy, fantastic and quirky place. The golf buggy was a fun addition!
Stephen
Loved the accommodation and position. Amazing outlook and a very cosy cabin with all mod cons. I will definitely go back to stay. The only minus is having to vacate by 9am when your on holiday,
A perfect getaway. Owners were friendly and welcoming. The Little Silver Fox is beautiful, cosy and superbly thought out. We had the ultimate relaxation escape in an idyllic setting. Cannot wait to go back!
Natalie
The hut was beautiful! It was so comfortable and wonderfully designed. All the little touches were amazing the golf cart, the welcome basket, the underfloor heating, the storage space in the hut and everything else, the view, the styling, the log burner, EVERYTHING was brilliant. We will definitely recommend it to anyone who appreciates nature and enjoys a cosy space.
Absolutely perfect place! We definitely want to return.
Shannon
This was such a brilliant holiday in an amazing location. The owners were incredibly friendly and there was so much information about what we could do and where. The cottage was divine and comfortable, the perfect place to spend out anniversary. The hot tub was perfect and, even though the weather wasn't amazing, we still got to take full advantage of this. We were so happy with our choice and would 100 do it again.
