Absolutely enjoyed the stay. Cottage well designed, equipped and clean. Some nice, personal touches always put you in a good mood. Swimming pool was a hit with kids during bad weather. Efficient heating was also great to dry towels and wet clothes. Highly recommended!

We had a lovely stay at the Lake Retreat nr Hatherleigh. It was a lovely base to explore the area and had everything we need for a great week away. It was clean and well kept. Brilliant shared pool which we always had by ourselves. It was all very peaceful.

Lovely compact lodge with a large fenced deck, set in a quiet site with a pond stocked with rudd, common carp and mirror carp. There is also an indoor pool which was great. The area is great as a base out to other parts of Devon and Cornwall . The owners of the lodge also left a welcome devonshire tea, which was a lovely gesture. I would definitelyRead more recommend.
