I absolutely can’t recommend Willow’s Rest highly enough. Harry and Judy were really friendly; the property was exceptionally well equipped and extremely comfortable. The location was ideal for visiting the unspoilt Southern Devon/Cornish coast. I definitely hope to be able to go back there - it was a very relaxing stay all round. Thank you for letting us stay 😊

A very special place relaxing peaceful and perfect for our short break Very comfortable and well resourced .The hosts was welcome and friendly and left a welcome gift which was much appreciated.It is hidden down narrow cornish lanes so you feel you are away from the crowds.We were fortunate to not meet another vehicle on our outings as passing spaces are few and far between.We really enjoyed visiting the closeby beaches of Portwrinkle and Seaton.The owner told us about the firework championships whilst we were there and we really enjoyed the location in nearby Edgecombe Park to watch this.

What a wonderful find! We had a beautiful week with the weather and the outside area of Willow’s Rest was heavenly. I picked this lodge because of the outside space and secure parking and the place did not disappoint. It was local to do many beautiful villages and places to see. Lots of restaurants and cafes within a short distance, although I wouldn’t have chanced walking down some of the single track lanes. The inside of the lodge was so homely and comfortable. We could not fault anything and would highly recommend. Our hosts Harry and Judy were exceptional and so helpful. Thank you for a fabulous week!
