Guest Reviews

• pamela (10/5): A great location, pretty outlook, very comfortable and well equipped. -
• Jack (10/5): Best place we’ve booked yet, been to many places and is the best by far. Thankyou - Everything the place was amazing. Couldn’t complain about a thing, lovely hosts, lovely views and a clean well kept property.
• Malcolm (9/5): You felt at home as as soon as we entered the cottage and felt completely welcome by the owner Wendy - N/A Nothing It was an adorable cottage which was a converted cowshed.
• Helen (10/5): A pure period of peace and relaxation - I couldn't find any faults. It was incredibly relaxing and I didn't want to leave. I'll definitely will be going back. It is highly commendable
• Alice (10/5): A beautiful, roomy, comfortable countryside retreat place with wonderful hosts! - Undoubtedly the most comfortable, welcoming place we’ve visited in our 120 day trek through Europe and England! The guest house is roomy, well supplied, comfortable and everything one could want in a retreat space. It’s also in a beautiful wooded farmland, but not too far (a 30 minute walk to Moretonhampstead) and right on the border of an interesting area of Dartmoor. Most of all-the host family was really kind and helpful. We’d have stayed longer if we could! Nothing—it was perfect!
• Beth (10/5): We had a lovely New Year break at The Cowshed. The accommodation was modern yet cosy, with great facilities and an ideal - -Great Location -Lovely Hosts -Great facilities -The log burner was brilliant and made the space feel extra warm, cosy, and relaxing We honestly couldn’t fault the property — we loved everything about it.
• Elaine (10/5): - We loved the log burner, the shower room with underfloor heating, the very comfy bed and balcony, which we were going to use for coffee but on our visit too chilly, good kitchen facilities, everything there We wouldn't have minded an empty cupboard for food but nothing else
• Shelly (10/5): - What not to like about that property? Wendy is an exceptional host, the property (especially after 7 hours' drive) was a delight and it is a place I will wholeheartedly recommend to both friends and family. It is not easy to find. The sat nav directs you to a very narrow lane. Wendy, however, provided written directions accompanied by images, which was helpful.
• Oliver (10/5): Absolut erholsame Unterkunft, sehr geräumig und familienfreundlich - Sehr nette Gastgeber, ruhige Lage, große Unterkunft mit toller Terrasse
• Mary (9/5): Dartmoor stay - Quiet area, owners are very welcoming and friendly, comfortable beds. We sat in the garden to have our evening meals while enjoying the freshness of Miretonhampstead. My daughter enjoyed cuddles with Wendy's cats. We also had a lovely evening playing football and croquet on the green field area opposite the property. Am not a keen driver on countrylanes but I did well considerably. We visited Manaton Village and North Bovey, they've both got lovely churches open for any visitor. St John's church in North Bovey has a corner for second hand books, my daughter bought couple of books. The property is not far from Becky falls.
• Jeremy (10/5): 5 stars! Recommend for a couple or family with one child! -
• Christian (10/5): rustig verblijf, ideaal voor een gezin, proper, veel comfort - veel plaats, proper, kalm, natuur gebied
• Jacqueline (10/5): Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The Cowshed was in a great location and we loved the interior. The hosts were very welcomin - Loved the decor and facilities. Great balcony and garden. Very good hosts.
• Louise (10/5): -
• Robert (10/5): Relaxing and peaceful stay in the country and very near to Dartmoor. - Great location in the country, just outside Moretonhamstead. Fantastic spacious and comfortable bedroom on the first floor with balcony to sit in the evening and listen to the birds and the trees. Living space and kitchen - all very well equipped and tastefully decorated.
• Matt (9/5): -
• Angela (9/5): - De grote maar toch gezellige ruimtes. Fijne tuin om in te zitten. Wasmachine-droger aanwezig. Kast vol met boeken en kaarten over Dartmoor. De meiden vonden de houten spelletjes erg leuk. Fijne keuken met alle benodigdheden. We misten gordijnen en horren. Het was warm dus we hadden de ramen open. Er vlogen veel vliegen binnen en de lamellen klapperden in de wind en lieten veel licht door.
• Sarah (10/5): Fantastic stay, lovely and quiet but facilities close by, so well equipped. Can't wait to return. - Lovely quiet location but within walking distance to Mortenhampstead with pubs, restaurants and shops, we did not want to leave
• Caroline (10/5): Beautiful cozy stay right in Dartmoor National Park - The Cowshed is absolutely stunning and very cozy with a fireplace and all the amenities you need (even heated floors in the bathroom). The place was clean and warm. The host, Wendy, was very welcoming and gave us many recommendations on walks and pubs in the area. We didn't have a car, but the property is very well located just 20 minute walk from the village for groceries and restaurants, and many beautiful Dartmoor paths (Hunter's and Fisherman's path, Castle Drogo, North Bovey, Easdon Tor) are close by. Wendy was also extremely helpful in helping us find a taxi when none were available on a bank holiday.
• Nicola (10/5): An idyllic country retreat - A truly wonderful home in a beautiful peaceful setting - everything needed for a cosy and comfortable stay was provided. Such care has been taken by Wendy to make the Cowshed a tranquil and charming home to spend time in.
• Abby (10/5): Relaxing stay in a beautiful location - We loved the open plan nature and the beautiful views out of every window. The hosts were welcoming, helpful and very friendly. The kids loved playing in the field
• Robert (10/5): Exceptional -
• John (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation was better than expected and it already looked very good on the app. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. To be honest, nothing. Probably best accommodation we have stayed at.
• James (10/5): Fantastic location. Lovely owners who delivered logs for the log burner and were very friendly and helpful. - Lovely and clean. Excellent facilities. N/A
• Christian (10/5): Peaceful retreat and pefect base for exploring Dartmoor’s beauty - We spent three unforgettable days in Dartmoor at the end of September. The Cowshed served as the ideal base for exploring the area by car and doing hikes. This two-story apartment offers ample space, and everything is maintained to the highest standard. The indoor fireplace was a real highlight — coming back from a hike and cozying up with a cup of tea by the fire was just perfect. Wendy is a fantastic host and even had the fire lit for us upon arrival, making us feel instantly welcomed. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would absolutely recommend The Cowshed to anyone looking for a peaceful, well-equipped retreat in Dartmoor.
• Danny (10/5): We had a great time - It was very cozy and comfortable Nothing really
• Conway (10/5): A fantastic property to make a memorable holiday. - The location was perfect with a short drive to the depths of Dartmoor with fantastic scenery. Also, the town of Moretonhamptead which is very close to the accommodation has some great places to eat - especially Bertos!
• Mihaela (10/5): Perfect - A very stylish property in a fantastic place. The balcony and the garden are awesome.
• Clare (10/5): Perfection. - The property is immaculate, well-equipped, comfortable and beautiful, the hosts extraordinarily kind and welcoming and the setting utterly lovely. If there were more stars than 10 available, they'd still score them all. It could not have been better.
