The Art House West Ridge Reviews

Philip

Fab holiday home in lovely private setting.

Mel

The house was fantastic - clean, well presented and in a quiet location, well away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to reach the town if you wished. A brilliant place to unwind and do your own thing. Met the owner who was extremely friendly and very helpful but "not in your face". We stayed for two weeks and it was well worth it.

This is a well equipped home with fantastic views. Lovely warm welcome from the host and nothing was too much trouble.

Lovely location looking across a valley. The property is not overlooked. Everything is nice and modern inside. Wonderfully equipped. The beds are really comfortable. The shower is excellent with good water flow. The owners were very helpful, friendly and welcoming, and respected our privacy.

Melanie

The Art House is beautiful. The surrounding countryside is amazing and really rural, great for a complete escape to recharge. Very well equipped and especially accommodating if you have a dog. A doggy area safely fenced off and a brilliant porch area to clean and feed your dog. We had an excellent stay.

Jennifer

Wonderful property in a beautiful surrounding. Lovely views and everything you could need and more. Lovely welcome hamper and hot tub were both a lovely bonus 5 and more!

Debbie

We have had a fantastic week, the cottage is superb, completely dog friendly. We have a Tesla so having a charging point at the property was so convenient and one of the reasons we chose the Art House. It was so relaxing & laid back. We used the hot tub numerous times sky gazing the stars in the night sky . We visited the Cadeleigh arms a local pub owned by the community, dont let the outside put you off as its great inside, the food is excellent & the host Tina so attentive.

Pauleen

First class accommodation, first class hosts. 100% recommendation and we will definitely return.

Pauline

The Art house is a beautiful positioned property, peaceful retreat. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay with family. Hosts were very welcoming.

Alan

Fantastic place to relax and enjoy whatever the weather.

Sharon

Great place to stay - the big windows are lovely and you are completely not overlooked. Bed is amazing big and comfy (hardly feel there is another person in with you). Nice outside seating and having a hottub to come home to after a day exploring Devon is lovely. Owners are lovely and on hand round the corner if you need anything.

Penny

One of the nicest, cleanest, most comfortable Cottages we have ever stayed in. We knew it was a dog friendly Cottage when we booked but decided not to take our very elderly dog with us. You wouldn't know that dogs stay there as we never saw any evidence of hair or smells as it is obviously cleaned to a very high standard. The hosts were lovely and the welcome gift was very much appreciated after a long journey. The only thing we didn't like was the 4 mile narrow road in to the Cottage every day.

Peter

Stunning property and location. Richard and Kim very welcoming and happy to help.Highly recommend.

Stephanie

A lovely renovated property with every comfort you could want. It is a quiet location with plenty near by. Would definitely recommend. The owners are very helpful and welcoming.

Beautiful cottage and situation. Hosts very welcoming and genial. Dog facilities excellent. Nice to be able to take a dog to such a top class cottage.

Nicola

Absolutely delightful On arrival we had a cream tea box and wine in the fridge. Our doggy was gifted her own blanket and bowls and bed were provided A wonderful quiet location just perfect for relaxation If you fancy time out spotting the occasional deer this property is for you A beautifully designed upside down house which had everything you coul d possibly need

Michael

Very well appointed, beautifully and tastefully furnished. Very clean and owners so welcoming and helpful. If you are looking for somewhere to stay for R&R then The Arthouse is the place for you! A cut above the rest! Situated in mid-Devon great for getting out to see Moors, Countryside and Coastline. We liked it so much have booked to come back ne xt year!
