  Wow what an absolute Gem of a place we came as a group of 7 over 3 generations and this suited everyone of us!

  We hadn’t travelled far (30 minutes) due to grandparents not being able to drive far but it definitely felt like a million miles away. Lots of beautiful places to visit on Dartmoor Widcombe in the moor, Hay Tor, Buckfast Abby just a few to name! The lodge was absolutely stunning and plenty of space the kitchen and open plan living/dining area was great everyone enjoyed cooking together and we even did some baking the kitchen is well equipped with everything you possibly needed our kids enjoyed the snug lounge as well they was plenty of cards board games to choose from. the log burner was ample amount of heating (we turned the radiators down) Our 2 dogs loved the outside garden all fenced in and plenty of room for them to have a mooch around. The hot tub was superb and the fairy lights around the fence was beautiful we sat out quite late a few nights just star gazing and listening to the owl. Jo and Max made us all feel very welcome right from the start with a wonderful hamper and messaged me after the first night to see how we were and if anything was needed and very kindly kept our logs stocked up! We all would definitely recommend this wonderful place to stay we all fell in love with it and it ticked every box plus more!!!! We are actually looking at dates for next year Thanks again Jo & Max in your hospitality from all of us!

  I am sorry but this is supposed to be pet friendly but apart from a small garden the only other walk is the drive.

  To take you dog for a walk you have to drive unless you like to walk single lane roads. The hot tub is under power probably not maintained properly. the tv in the front room is on its last legs. the property itself is not clean there are cobwebs everywhere they have been in place for a long time as they are covered in dust. the sofa if you lift the cushions well that has not been cleaned for months. They do not even move them to clean under them, the bathroom floor is in poor condition very near ready to replace, the cabinet in the bathroom has not been cleaned for a long time. For what is supposed to be luxury accommodation has slowly been left to deteriorate. I would not go back or recommend it to anyone. If this sounds unfair then you are looking at what it should be as we saw it first a lovely property but the longer you are there the more you see that has not been maintained or cleaned.

  Four adults and one dog enjoyed a very comfortable week in The Mews.

  Andy and Charmaine were very friendly and welcoming but didn’t crowd us at all. The Mews is in a good location and feels remote enough to be peacefully quiet but only 15 mins away from Bovey Tracey and shops. Ducks and geese were our neighbours! Ideal for a recharging holiday. Nice and clean, very warm with plenty of hot water. The outside tap is a real bonus for washing muddy paws after walkies. Dog leg-stretching a little bit limited without walking down the lane but Andy mentioned plans to expand the fenced area which would give dog-guests more space to roam. He also offered to dog-sit if we wanted to go out, which although we didn’t need to take advantage of this time is still really appreciated. Lovely fresh scones (huge!), a pot of jam and clotted cream awaited us on arrival which started our Devon holiday in the best way. We look forward to our next visit!

  My friend and I stayed in The Mews for 7 nights and I have to say we had a wonderful time!

  I hope to stay here again. The house was clean and comfortable and the hosts were very friendly and helpful. The house is well equipped and there is a lovely fireplace which we used most nights. The house is a comfortable temperature anyway without using the fireplace. A very modern bathroom and a modern country house feel throughout the property. The house stands on at an excellent location, set back from the main roads and amongst a pleasant farm. Bovey Tracey is nearby. My friend and I visited Dartmoor National Park on every day of the trip. The views from the main bedroom window are lovely, looking over green space where wildlife can sometimes be seen. I hope to stay here again.

  Had an amazing stay at the Mews and would love to go back again.

  Warm welcome with smiles from the owners and lots of information and scones with clotted cream and jam. Owners are very helpful and friendly. The Mews is fully equipped and spotlessly clean, the photos don't do it justice, and it's perfect for exploring Dartmoor and nearby Torquay and beaches. My daughter loved feeding the lambs on site with farmer Geoff, who was brilliant with her. Cannot fault the mews and it's owners who went out of their way to make our little break memorable. Thank you so much. Can't recommend the mews highly enough.
