Copper Beech Reviews

Emma
Copper Beech is such a lovely spot-serene and beautifully kept. The little touches really made a difference, everything we needed was there. We had a fantastic week and didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend, we’d definitely come back!
James
Honestly, Hydrangea Lodge was just what we needed for a quick getaway. Waking up to breakfast under the canopy, chilling in the hot tub star-gazingand cosy evenings by the firepit - we didn’t want to leave at all! It’s perfect for unwinding.
Jamie
We recently stayed three nights at the Hydrangea Shepherds Hut and honestly, it was lovely. The hot tub was perfect and kept really warm, which was just what we needed. The hut itself was quite cosy and a great spot to unwind. They even surprised us with some of our favourite biscuits and a nice bottle of fizz - a lovely touch! One thing to remember is to bring some hand soap and shower gel because there wasn’t any provided. We’ve been here before as a coupleand it’s a fantastic base for exploring Devon or just soaking up nature’s peace. Definitely recommend, but maybe not when we decide to come back!
