Lovely little cottage, a few teething issues, but very helpful in resolving them. If taking a dog, you need to be prepared to get out around the park, as there is no enclosed area within the property to just let them out. They were minor points. We had a very nice stay

The location of the property is good with plenty to do in the area. The view is lovely and we saw some beautiful sunsets. Second bedroom is small, was just ok for one adult, no wardrobe in the second bedroom. The biggest problem was the swarms of small flies making it impossible to sit outside or open the patio doors or windows. Obviously they are Read moreattracted by the trees. The kitchen was adequately equipped. Hide

We loved our week at Salcombe Lodge. The cottage itself is beautifully finished, very warm and cosy, and the hot tub was a delight in February! If you can get your head round being on a Christmas tree farm, you will appreciate the privacy and peace and quiet, plus you are 15 mins from lots of handy places for day time activities.

It's best summed up in the words of our 12 year old son, "This is the best holiday we have been on." I could not fault the experience, the location, the level of equipment, the friendliness of the staff. We all indulged in what my partner called "Forest Bathing" - that connection with nature, being surrounded by trees, is so good for general wellbeRead moreing & health. The peace, quiet, the myriad of places to visit, the countryside walks. I would definitely recommend and we would absolutely revisit. Hide
