Never had been to tavistock and the area, it was great to explore and return to a cosy cottage at the end of the day. We we're suprised at how clean and nice the property was, really bright. Have already recommended it to other family members and friends as it was a very pleasant stay.

Quiet. Would definitely visit again. But leaving only a single dishwasher tablet was a bit mean.
