It doesn’t get much closer to nature than this! Welcome to an idyllic retreat for two at this beautifully situated lodge in the middle of Devon. From the pretty entrance to the open-plan living space with bi-folding doors that bring the outdoors in, you’ll feel very much at one with the spectacular surrounding countryside. Take advantage of the summer warmth on the decked area or summer house, and for those cooler months, cosy up on the sofa with the wood burner roaring, while you gaze out at the stunning scenery.

This adorable lodge nestled among the rolling hills of Devon is the epitome of rest and tranquillity. If its romance or an escape from the everyday you’re looking for, you won’t be disappointed. Inside is beautifully light, spacious and stylishly decorated. Laid-out on one level, it exudes a feeling of remoteness and privacy, like you’ve retreated to a log cabin in the middle of nowhere with just the sounds of nature to keep you company. But when you feel like venturing out for supplies or a local treat, the village of Morchard Bishop is less than half a mile away.

Being ideally situated in the middle of Devon, the county’s attractions are all within reach. To the south, Dartmoor National Park (15 miles) with its miles of trails winds through valleys with Neolithic tombs, Bronze Age stone circles and abandoned medieval farmhouses. To the north, Exmoor National Park (20 miles) is famous for its wild ponies, hilly walks, mountain bike trials, horse riding and climbing. But when you feel in need of a bit more civilisation, the Roman city of Exeter is just 15 miles away offering historic sites, fine dining, theatre shows and sporting events.

The location was beautiful, surrounded by quiet fields and hills. Myself and my partner went in the first week of January and were well prepared for the rain, but the best part was coming back to the cabin and putting the log fire on. The cabin offered an extremely comfortable weekend away. The closest town is only 20 minutes away and Exeter City iRead mores only 30 minutes. I would recommend visiting the underground tunnels in Exeter, its an amazing experience but do mind your head. Hide

Cabin has everything you want. Clean, spacious and well equipped. Off road parking a bonus. External lights come on from a timer that helps if arriving after dark.

In over 20 years I have never left a review on any holiday accommodation., usually because I have been very disappointed. Not in this case. It was a joy - the log cabin the wonderful orchard and garden, the quiet and privacy and Richard our friendly host. Linda and Michael

We had such a lovely stay at Orchard View. The cabin exceeded our expectations and provided everything we needed and more. We met Richard who was very welcoming and kind, recommending the local shop and pub, both of which didnt disappoint. The local area has a lot to see and do, and we will definitely be back to see more of what we didnt have time Read morefor. All in all a lovely, relaxing, and peaceful stay, and we would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a quiet country escape. Hide

Lovely central situation for north Dartmoor. We were there at the end of a wet, chill winter. I am sure it would be fab to sit on the deck in the summer. We visited RHS Rose moor and had an interesting walk round Morchard Bishop. Very pleasant stay.

We really enjoyed our stay at Orchard View Turning Ways,It was very well equipped and comfortable. The location was ideal for travelling both Devon coasts . We walked on the South Coast path two days and also cycled the Tarka trail from Barnstaple, We also took the train from Crediton (free parking) to Okehampton to walk on the granite Way

A lovely lodge in very natural surroundings., not overlooked at all , no noisy neighbours or traffic sounds. Very well equipped although we couldnt quite figure out the heating. A lovely touch was the welcome basket and the fizz in the fridge. The orchard is beautiful, even in the rain, birds abound. You definitely need a car to explore and a good Read moresatnav for the tiny country lanes. Nice to come back at night to peace and quiet and sink into a very comfy sofa. Hide

Truly the most idyllic, beautifully crafted log cabin, with views across fields and amazingly stunning sunsets from all windows. Beautifully warm and cosy with the woodburner (and a big selection of logs) and the AC/heater. Large bed was very comfy and most efficient shower. Cooking facilities excellent and verandah seating hugely relaxing. RichardRead more lives next door, and was pleasantly chatty.
