Dolton is a small rural village in the heart of Devon's rolling countryside and offers a small selection of shops and pubs, making it the ideal place to stock up on any store cupboard essentials and maybe stop off for a refreshing pint or a bite to eat in a traditional English pub while you are here. Winding lanes, high hedgerows and a gentler pace of life characterise the area. The open tors of Dartmoor are a big attraction for nature lovers and walkers, while the hills of Exmoor and the surfing beaches are all a short but scenic drive away. Historic Torrington, home to RHS Rosemoor and an arts centre is within easy reach, whilst the cathedral city of Exeter with its Roman city walls, shopping centre, theatre and restaurants, makes a great day out. Other towns worth a visit include Barnstaple, Copplestone and Okehampton. For a slice of rural England in the heart of idyllic Devon, make sure you pay a visit to Dolton.

The location is perfect for exploring North Devon. During our stay, we organized our own treks to Dartmoor and Exmoor National Parks, visited several stunning beaches, and highly recommend a visit to Castle Drogo, which includes a fantastic trek.The cottage also has a fishery on-site, which inspired my son to learn how to fishâa wonderful and unexpected bonus! The owners were lovely and always available if we had any issues.The only downside was that the cottage was advertised with a hot tub, which turned out not to be the case. However, Sykes quickly corrected the error in the listing. Despite this, we had an amazing time and would love to return, hopefully with fishing rods in hand and a bit more experience! This has truly been our best holiday yet.
