  • Quirky Devon cabin ideal for romantic retreats
  • Set in a private area of a beautiful garden
  • Restful bathtub on decking area outside

Property code: OC-BC1000

Set in tranquil surroundings overlooking the historic market town of Totnes, this hillside hideaway is ideal for a couple planning to explore South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The cabin enjoys spacious living areas and the use of a private garden, home to a hammock and even an outside bathtub for restorative soaks under the stars.

This bright and airy wooden cabin is trimmed with quirky soft furnishings which, combined with its functional layout, help to create a comfortable, homely atmosphere you might struggle to pull yourself away from. Curl up in the delightful lounge/kitchen/diner for lazy brunches, film matinees and romantic meals, before calling it a night and heading to the sanctuary of an en-suite double bedroom that enjoys lovely views of the surrounding landscape. The view is even better from the decked area within the enclosed private garden, offering a hammock for summer lazing, and a deep bathtub perfect for a dip before an al fresco supper.

The cabin stands within 1 mile of Totnes, a historic market town brimming with independent shops, pubs and eateries. A bridle path at the end of the garden takes you on the scenic route to the equally attractive village of Ashprington (2 miles), a fantastic introduction to the South Devon AONB that follows the River Dart to Dartmouth (13 miles). Here, you’ll find stunning coves, a castle and vibrant streets.

Lovely view across Totnes and river from decking. Bath outside is unusual but I couldnt resist it. Bed and sofa very comfortable, just what you need after a day exploring. Fairly steep slope with steps from car park to cabin so not suitable for infirm guests. TV in both bedroom and sitting area which was handy at times. Enjoyed our stay.

I had an enjoyable stay at Dart View Cabin. Donna and Nick were lovely hosts and the area is very peaceful and quiet. Totnes makes a great base for hiking and walks with good transport links to the coast.

Main problem is the access road which is a challenge. Finally I would suggest table on the decking for outside eating would be good.

Lovely comfortable cabin in a great location with stunning views. It was private, cosy, with a small secure area for the dog. Good walks from the cabin and recommended walks from the friendly owners. Totnes is a short walk away and has good independent shops and places to eat. Ideal place for visiting coast, Dartmoor and river walks. Good value fRead moreor money for a stay in July. We would definitely stay again. The cabin is well organised but we found there is limited storage for clothes, however we always take too much! You need to be fairly fit to manage path down to the cabin with bags and if walking to and from there due to the hill. Hide

Cabin has a great view over the town from the patio, Totnes town centre is walking distance. Welcome bottle of wine when you arrive, plus tea/coffee/milk/sugar sachets.Kitchen is a tiny "galley", but has all you need for basic cooking. Great water pressure in shower. Limited clothes storage - would be cramped for 2 people, but hey, you're on holidaRead morey! Totnes is a lovely town and a good base for touring South Devon. Owner has provided a folder with clear maps indicating walking routes along the beautiful Devon coast, plus a folder detailing other local attractions. One week is not enough! Hide
