We had such a lovely stay here it was very clean and tidy owners were lovely ... We had such a lovely stay here it was very clean and tidy owners were lovely even left scones and cream that were yummy and a nice welcoming touch I would definitely recommend this lovely cottage to friends and family and I would book again as was nice and peaceful
What an enjoyable stay! ! totally better than what you see in the photos!! on arrival we were left jam and cream scones, the place was extremely clean and very cosy!! the hosts thought of absolutely everything!!! , tea cofee sugar, right down to plastic cups to use in the hot tub, washing up liquid, you name it, the hosts provided it,!!! towels and bath robes for the hot tub which was clean and so very warm, we really enjoyed our stay and definitely return, Thank you so much love Martyn and Karen
We had a fantastic stay at Springwell Lodge! So beautifully kept and comfortable! Loved the hot tub , and the enclosed garden was perfect for the dog! As was the big field behind it for dog playtime! Thank you Kelly and Aaron and your family for a lovely friendly place to stay! The welcome scones were also very much appreciated ! We hope to be back soon !
The place was really lovely, I would stay there again if I came to Exeter another time. Only minor issue was that half of the hot tub didnt work. But enough for 2 Other than that its pretty perfect for a get away!
We had the best week away. It was home from home. On arrival we had scones jam and cream
Amazing from start to finish! The lodge has everything you need, location is amazing, wether it be a day at the coast or a city trip, its situated perfectly. The owners greeted us on arrival, really welcoming, attentive always there if you need anything. At the same time, they respect your privacy and leave you too it. Highly recommend and will be back in the near future. Thank you, so much!
If I could have stayed longer I would have! !! We had the loveliest long weekend and will 1000 be rebooking. I was unsure at first as I knew the lodge was on the owners property and when you book time away you want privacy, but dont let that put you off. We crossed paths once and that was it but even if we had seen them more it wouldnt change my opinion The owners are lovely and have made the lodge a home from home. Lovely decor and hot tub is a massive plus. Defo a location that you need a car as about 30 mins away from beaches and activities!! Already recommended to friends & family x
Francesca
Enjoyed a lovely three night stay at Springwell lodge. When we arrived we were greeted with a lovely cream tea which we werent expecting and all the facilitiesamenities had been well thought out! The location is fab as its just off the bypass so youre able to easily access anywhere. When we werent out and about exploring, the lodge was the perfect little place to come back to. The hot tub was an amazing addition after a heavy day of walking. The garden is also completely secure so the fur baby was safe and not able to roam where he shouldnt! Also great communication with Kelly and Arron as to where we pick the keys up etc. Wouldnt hesitate to stay here again! Thank you! Fran and Jono x
Kelly and aaron were brilliant hosts, they made us feel welcome straight away. the cottage was spotless and everything was kept in good condition, the bed was really comfortable. Wouldnt hesitate to come here again!!!
Absolutely amazing place to stay hosts where impeccable location of village and local pubs extremely friendly with good choice of menu and fabulous food and value for money. Would stay again and already recommend to family and friends
Kathryn
A wonderful place to stay, close enough to lots of places of interest, yet feels like in countryside. The accommodation is well presented, hot tub a welcome bonus. Will be looking to stay again
Darren
What a lovely place to stay, just what was needed for us, was far enough away ... What a lovely place to stay, just what was needed for us, was far enough away from neighbours but close enough to shops for us to get supplies, so lovely to sit outside and listen to all the birds singing away, fantastic host couldn't have asked for more, very much recommended, thank you
Anastasia

Patience
Lovely property. Lovely host. Friendly, well organised. In summary, it a home away from home
Manisha
The lodge was perfect. Privacy and out of the way, whilst also being local to local pubs, shops and the seaside. The lodge itself was very clean & there were thoughtful touches throughout by the owners, including scones and an information pack with local amenities. The hot tub was great, even in the cold weather and was a great finishing touch. Would highly recommend & we will definitely be back here!
