Comfortable & very dog friendly.Excellent downstairs bedroom & ensuite.We found Upstairs facilities difficult for two adults owing to size of bathroom & sloping ceilings.Kitchen equipment is sparse.Not enough mugs and wine glasses when we arrived, but this was quickly remedied by the owners, after we phoned them.

Ragwood cottage is a lovely conversion and very comfortable, in very quiet surroundings.We were away for two weeks elsewhere in Devon and must say the bed at Ragwood was the most comfortable we slept in the whole holiday.Would definitely recommend and will be returning at some point.

Had a wonderful weekend in a beautiful location. My only gripe would be it was hard to find. We arrived after 10 as we had a long drive after we finished work to get there and struggled to find where it was. We called the owners but had no response. It was pure luck that we found it! The confusion came because it was on the site of another property and we thought we were going down the drive of someones private home when the property obviously belonged to them too and was on their grounds. Overall the place was gorgeous, very clean very well equipped and immaculate. We would recommend and stay there again ourselves. Good experience.
