Tucked away on the northern edge of Dartmoor National Park amongst Devon’s rolling hills, this contemporary lodge is perfect for families. If you love the great outdoors, there are plenty of walking trails on your doorstep and beyond. Despite the tranquil rural setting, the historic market town of Okehampton is only 2 miles away, with its range of independent shops and eateries bursting with local produce. With so much to do, you’ll be pleased to spend your evenings relaxing in your private hot tub, stargazing with a glass of wine.

As you ascend the small flight of steps and enter this light-filled, well-presented lodge, you will appreciate the rural views. With an attractive and well-equipped open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, this compact accommodation offers you all the home comforts and mod-cons you’ll need. On warm summer days, you even have the option of opening the patio doors to incorporate the decking area into your living space. There are two bright and airy bedrooms: one double with a TV and en-suite and a cosy twin with a separate bathroom. The utility room is a welcome addition.

Local towns/villages, Mid-Devon has something for everyone. For a different day out, head to Ancient Woodland Park Becky Falls (21 miles) where you can handle the animals after scrambling over prehistoric rocks. Another natural landmark to explore is the National Trust’s picturesque Lydford Gorge (7.5 miles), or perhaps you’d prefer the modern history of Castle Drogo (14 miles). Exeter is within 25.5 miles and has a variety of shopping and eating options, or you can head south to the English Riviera for a taste of the seaside.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 double and 1 twin
  • 1 bathroom with shower over bath and WC, and 1 en-suite shower room with WC
  • Electric oven and gas hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher
  • Utility room with washing machine

Great little lodge for our short stay, lovely base to use to explore the area. It was brilliant that the deck had a gate on it to our dog could have some space outside that was enclosed so he could wander about. Really peaceful environment.

A great bolt-hole to explore a fabulous part of the country. You are within a mile of some dramatic parts of Dartmoor, 30 miles from the coast in most directions, and Okehampton itself will keep you entertained for hours. The lodge was really nice, very well equipped with plenty of space. And any kitchen that comes with a teapot always gets my voteRead more! Hide

Tor Lodge is a lovely, comfortable getaway from the hustle and bustle of life in a peaceful setting, where there's a lovely family of ducks who take a constitutional past the lodges when they're tired of swimming in the pond. The park is situated behind Betty Cottles Inn which serves a lovely varied menu when you want a break from cooking The lodgeRead more also has a relaxing hot tub which we only used once due to it raining just about every day!

Tor lodge was beautiful. Spotless. (Although there were lots of crumbs under sofa cushions ) I was very impressed to see mattress and pillow protectors on the beds. Really tastefully decorated. Felt very homely. Lots of cooking utensils. Towels were very thick and soft. Luxurious. The hot tub was a real treat. Decking area and new table and chairs Read morewere comfortable all be it in the shade we did feel like we were far away from everything. Having to take the car everyday. Hide

Had a lovely stay, lovely hot tub. Cottage was well equipped. Great location, within easy drive to most beautiful visitor attractions. Whoever pub was shut, also bbq was not checked for a long time , as it was mouldy and full of cobwebs, we could not use it. Apart from that would definitely recommend and would come back.

Throughly enjoyed our family trip, the lodge we stayed in was set amongst the trees, a little chilly but welcomed with the warmer weather, the hot tub isn't as excluded or private but still acessable and was welcomed to take a chilled evening, the location with a small child meant we had to branch out to find entertaining activities. I would visit Read moreagain but this time making note about the tree sap and taking something to protect the car. Hide

Nice setting in the trees but Tor lodge doesn't get any sun so not much use of decking furniture. Leaves etc from the trees is also a problem on the decking when going to and from the hot tub into the lodge. The lodge was comfortable and clean. Not well stocked with such things as draught beer and cocktail ingredient
