Walkers Retreat with garden and views

The hosts of this delightful little apartment have genuinely thought of everything. The bed was wonderfully comfortable, with beautiful linen. The living room and kitchen had all that we needed and more (I always long to find an apron, wherever I stay - and here in a drawer I discovered a lovely thick butcher's apron: heaven). Excellent coffee, eggs, milk left for us. It was clear in every detail that there was an unusual level of care, consideration and generosity in our hosts' attitude to paying guests - even down to the encouragement to walk through their extensive garden with wide mown paths and a panoramic view over the valley. Highly recommended.

I couldn't fault it.

We found an absolute gem! Loved everything about Walkers Retreat. The accommodation was comfortable, clean and well equipped. So well thought out. Hosts were friendly and attentive. The location was peaceful, with stunning gardens and easy access to excellent walking routes. Pub only a 5 minute walk an added bonus.

The quiet of Dartmoor at night and the birdsong during the day. An easy walk to cafe shop and pub. Had plenty of R&R

The apartment is in a very good location for exploring the eastern moors of Dartmoor National Park. The apartment is exactly as described in the booking information. It is located above the garage of the property owners and is attatched to their home. The bathroom is located downstairs, but there is a very small toilet right next to the bedroom. The apartment is well equipped for self-catering and the bed is very comfortable. It was spotlessly clean. There is a very nice garden setting with views over the village and valley that can be enjoyed in good weather.

There are 4 narrow steps up to the entry of the apartment, which made it difficult for international travellers with large, heavy suitcases. Luggage racks for suitcases would also have helped.

Eggs & milk etc. Provided.

Did not expect it to have a cramped entrance up steps & be above a garage! Nor to go down stairs to shower nor a toilet the size of a toilet in an airliner! All that's holding have been made clear beforehand. The price not justified.

Amazing location, so peaceful and beautiful with stunning views across the Devon countryside. The accommodation was perfect, really comfortable and clean with everything you could possibly want provided including loads of useful information on walks, places to eat etc. I really appreciated that on arrival there was a pint of milk and half a dozen eggs plus coffee and tea. I would definitely return to Walkers retreat and cannot recommend it more highly.

Absolutely nothing, for me it was perfect.

Sam and her family are lovely. Extremely helpful and friendly. The location is amazing, the surroundings beautiful. The accommodation is very private, comfortable and I have all the amenities I could have wanted for me 3 night stay. I would very happily stay there again. The local visit is pretty with a great community shop and cafe and there are two pubs within walking distance (maybe a reasonable walk) but just minutes drive away. One is literally at the end of the road. I was able to explore and sit in the owners garden. Wifi and everything really, worked very well. Added touches of a bottle of milk (sadly I don't drink it) and some eggs (gorgeous) were left in the fridge. I had a brilliant stay.

Not as strong as didn't like, but if you had anything larger than a small saloon, getting into the driveway and parking for the annexe might be a bit awkward, need to be good at 3 or 5 point turns (whch I am). And I REALLY didn't like LEAVING!!!
