Summary: Cosy barn conversion ideal for family of 4 with 1/2 pets. Good access from main roads whilst offering quiet, scenic setting in farm area on the edge of Dartmoor. Ideal location for exploring across Devon: the coast, Dartmoor and lovely quaint historic sites, villages, gardens and places of interest with plenty of recommended pubs, tea rooms and places to eat. Acorn Cottage is well equipped offering everything for a home from home stay plus a wonderful welcome in terms of scones, clotted cream, home made jam, local apple juice and many essentials (milk, tea, coffee, wash up soaps etc) A freshly picked posy of sweet peas and some local soaps were offered. Our cat also had his own arrival basket with treats, a toy and instructions. Alison is a wonderful host who thinks of everything and goes that extra mile: she provided comprehensive travel directions and checked our special interests and preferences in advance. So when we arrived she had typed up a list of skate parks & cycling options for our teen plus a comprehensive list of local & rated pubs/restaurants which proved very helpful and the ones we tried were excellent! We had mixed weather yet with the micro climate were still able to get out and visit North & South Devon, some of Dartmoor, the locality, Exeter and spend some time chilling in the cottage. There are plenty of books to read, some board games, DVDs, TV and lots of visitor information. We all had a great stay including our cat Thank-you

Summary: Spent a wonderful week at Acorn Cottage. A good base to explore Dartmoor. Lovely welcome pack from Alison - including scones and fresh eggs. Close to villages that have great pubs to eat and drink in. Would highly recommend

Summary: My wife, two adult daughters, and small dog enjoyed a great 4-day visit to Acorn Cottage.
Carrianne E. Nov 4, 2021 05:31:35 AM
Summary: A lovely little cottage, in the most lovely countryside. We were welcomed with a cream tea & eggs feshly laid by the hens a lovely welcome , and a little gift of some Dartmoor soap (thank you). The cottage was comfortable and clean and it was reassuring to learn that the owner leaves the property for 72hrs before new guests can move in. We would recommend this cottage, the nearby walks were lovely, easy access to Dartmoor, and a great near by pub for a meal out (The Taw River Inn) We loved the area and would happily return in the furture.

Summary: Comfortable accommodation with accessible bathroom and well-equipped kitchen, all spotlessly clean. Cream tea in the fridge when we arrived. Quiet country location but within easy access of main roads to either coast, and Dartmoor close-by. Would highly recommend to anyone who likes a quiet spot in a country setting. Thank you, Alison.

Summary: What a fantastic cottage. Acorn Cottage is just about the perfect place for anybody wanting a quiet stress free holiday away from the trials and tribulations of everyday life. The cottage is beautifully presented and well equipped . The area is an abundance of fantastic walks with Dartmoor minutes away Alison is a wonderful host and we can’t wait to return to Acorn Cottage.

Summary: A great stay. Cottage has everything you'd need, brilliant location & lovely atmosphere. Alison was a great host.

Summary: I would love to give Acorn cottage full 5 stars.Provision for handicapped stayer was very, very good. My only reason for 95 out of 100 is the smallness of the accommodation. Kitchen had everything (including a lowered sink and hob), accept space is very tight. Bathroom, excellent; a fully fitted wet room and loads of "grab" rails. Bedroom number 1 downstairs had room for a wheelchair - excellent. Just a shame that the comfortable sitting room had to be upstairs and so could not be used by my wife - sitting on a bed to watch the television is not ideal - but a lot better than nothing! The owner of Acorn Cottage very generously welcomed us with a pot of homemade raspberry jam and a pot of Clotted Devon cream and scones! A lovely cottage in a farm yard surrounded by other converted out buildings and - shhh QUIET! We shall be returning I am sure. I am very surprised that Home and Away do not insist that owners who say that their properties have "Wheelchair Access" do not insist that they must also provide bathroom facilities with grab rails and wet room for showering and that both it and at least one bedroom are downstairs on the ground floor unless a stair lift (Stannah or similar)is provided.

Summary: Excellent. It was just what I wanted, provided exactly what was offered - and more. It was very well equipped and with lots of modern utensils. A fabulous welcome and a very helpful owner. I would certainly stay there again if I was in the region and highly recommend it to others.

Summary: Had a great time staying here with my children. Cottage has everything you need to make it a home away from home. Especially loved the quiet rural setting. Well positioned centrally for days out to other parts of Devon and North Cornwall. Ideal base for exploring Dartmoor. Welcome pack was very welcome indeed after a long journey.
