Oakhurst is ideally positioned to reach the friendly village shop and pub on foot: via the lane or choose the wooded path which leads through the village orchard and features the May Day Rock. From the house you can explore various footpaths, offering walks in all directions to enjoy the surrounding woods, meadows and riverside paths. Travel further afield, planning an itinerary brimming with outdoor activities and hot spots, including Becky Falls, bird spotting and trekking through East Dartmoor Woods & Heaths National Nature Reserve, follow the walking trails towards Haytor Rocks, or grab your picnic blanket and relax in Stover Country Park. Visit the Buckfast Butterfly Farm and Dartmoor Otter Sanctuary, ideal for all the family, whilst Spitchwick offers a stunning backdrop for a riverside walk or even a dip. The wonderful Cleave Inn, in Lustleigh with its welcoming atmosphere, is ideal for lunch in the garden, a cosy supper or a drink by the fire. Book your next stay at Oakhurst.

The picturesque settlement of Lustleigh is located within Dartmoor National Park, tucked away in the verdant Wray Valley and perched on the heavily forested slopes of eastern Dartmoor. Take a stroll through the picturesque village, which features charming churches, traditional thatched cottages, lush green woodlands, and the Primrose Tea Rooms, where you can unwind with a cup of tea and some delectable homemade treats after a strenuous hike. You'll also come across The Cleave Pub, one of the best pubs in Dartmoor National Park, and the Orchard, where yearly events are held. If you can drag yourself away from the village, Cleave is a steep hill that is close by and provides breath-taking views of Lustleigh and the surrounding Dartmoor region. The chance to tour "the prettiest settlement in Dartmoor" will excite visitors.

    The property is very beautiful, spacious and well furnished. Lustleigh is a delightful village and it is well situated for trips throughout Dartmoor or south Devon. I would definitely recommend it!

    Excellent kitchen and everything you could possibly need. the beds and quilts were comfy and we were nice and warm. The instructions to get to the house was superb and very precise. We all had a fantastic holiday.

    The cottage was beautifully furnished, filled with all the comforts of home and the location was absolutely stunning! The pretty village with it’s quaint little shops, thatched cottages, church and pub was just a short walk from the property. The surrounding areas were stunning with lots of beautiful countryside and woodlands to walk your dog. Many thanks Maddy for a wonderful stay and thank you very much for the gorgeous hamper and delicious cake!
