Located in a romantic spot on the edge of Dartmoor National Park, surrounded by wildflower meadows and orchards, this peaceful cabin is a perfect base for two in search of adventure. Having been handcrafted by the owners with thoughtful touches such as a wood burner and underfloor heating, the charming abode is idyllic at all times of the year, with awe-inspiring walks available right on your doorstep including the Granite Way.

As you step inside the cabin you''ll be welcomed by the open-plan living area which is bursting with character thanks to its bespoke nature. Beams line the ceilings whilst flagstone flooring can be seen on the floors. A large sofa means that you can cuddle up with your loved one to watch a film whilst the kitchen has everything you will need to prepare meals during your stay. When it''s time to go to sleep the custom-built king-size bed frame invites you in for a deep slumber. The bedroom area also has an en-suite shower room. Outside is a rear, raised patio with an in-built table and chairs where you can eat breakfast, lunch and dinner on a sunny day. A second seating area at the front of the cabin offers views into the orchard-style garden and wildflower meadow, enticing you for a walk beside the diverse plant life.

We had a fabulous week at place farm with our sausage Frank. A beautiful & immaculate place to stay, with beautiful surroundings. A gem of a place, that we would highly recommend. Martin and Jakki are the perfect hosts and make you feel as if you've know them forever. The cabin is truly a credit to you both, and the home made scones (all 4 eaten bRead morey Paul) were delicious! If you are keen biker then look no further as there are rides everywhere, plus lovely walks either long or short. Just brilliant! Thanks Again Martin & Jakki. See you soon.

Lovely little cosy cabin. Perfect for escaping to. Beautiful surroundings that we would have loved to explore more. The owners were very friendly and helpful making our visit even better. Would be lovely to visit in the winter with the log fire going. The craftsmanship of the cabin is amazing and very well thought out.

Well what can I say about our stay.. nothing but positives. Firstly, how wonderful to meet Martin & Jakki. I had the pleasure of hearing about their journey to build the cabin. As individuals and a couple they are fantastic, lovely people, they really shine. All their efforts, time, planning, energy, blood, sweat and (probably) tears have paid offRead more. They should be extremely proud of the cabin; it is not only aesthetically beautiful, but super cosy, comfortable, clean, and all the equipment you need. The attention to detail is wonderful and they have done a fantastic job. Whether you have a dog or not, I would highly recommend a stay here, but Place Farm Cabin is very canine friendly if you are travelling with a furry companion. Great location for exploring the beautiful Dartmoor National park and being in nature, and Devon in general, but close to amenities. I had a truly restorative break, Im so grateful. Anything I needed / questions, they were super responsive and helpful. Id only been there a couple of hours when I enquired if I could stay longer; unfortunately not this time, as there were new guests arriving on my departure. Had I been able to stay an additional night or two; no hesitation. I was sad to leave, but Im already looking at the calendar to see when I can return. Martin & Jakki you have gone above and beyond, you deserve all the good reviews & positive things coming your way. Nothing but good vibes and a BIG THANK YOU. Look forward to seeing you both soon, Bindi The Big Dog & Hannah Hide
