It is in close proximity to The Tarka Trail with a bike hire shop within walking distance & only a 5 -10 minute drive from major supermarkets (depending on traffic). The whole proRead moreperty is super dog friendly with a COMPLETELY enclosed, generously sized garden which helped make our stay even more enjoyable knowing that if we opened the door to let our pup out, there was no way that she was going to be able to escape. We have already recommended The Tack Room to friends who are looking to stay in the Devon area Hide

Clare

A wonderfully luxurious cottage. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Gillian

The property is off the beaten track, so you get peace and tranquility but also near enough to the main road to explore Devon. You step out of the property and are already on walks with your dog. Absolutely marvellous and highly recommend. So much so that I didnt want to leave.
