About this property
Holbeton 1 mile. The perfect hideaway for a couple's retreat and named after the local River Yealm, this luxury cabin is situated within a picturesque valley. This unique haven ticks all the boxes for a luxury glamping getaway. Yealm is set within the South Hams countryside and only three miles from the beach. It is a self-contained luxury glamping cabin with a wood-fired hot tub. A short drive, or longer, but leisurely walk to Mothecombe beach with close proximity to Dartmoor National park, Salcombe and Plymouth, Yealm provides an inviting, secluded escape for couples or friends wanting to relax and get away from it all.
After a day exploring many beautiful beaches, trekking on Dartmoor National Park or mooching around the vibrant South Devon towns, head back to your cabin to create a delicious meal in the well-equipped kitchenette then enjoy an indulgent soak in the wood-fired hot tub or a glass of bubbles in the garden area. Round off the evening next to the fire pit underneath the spectacular night sky, whilst listening to the hooting of the many owls before crawling into the king-sized bed with crisp Egyptian cotton sheets. Choose Yealm and experience a wonderful holiday in Devon. Note: This property can be booked together with Ref.
1118202, and sleeps up to 10 guests.
Holbeton, with its meandering lanes and thatched cottages, is a charming holiday resort at any time of year. The community, which comprises a shop/Post Office and a pub, has a true sense of isolation, with picture-perfect buildings completing the ambience. The village church dates from the 14th century and features beautiful stained glass, giving to the delicate atmosphere of the Devonian settlement while juxtaposing grandeur with its enormous steeple. The River Erme is nearby, and the sandy beach at Mothecombe is a short distance away and makes for a pleasant day at the beach. The Dartmoor National Park and the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are also nearby, providing a multitude of outdoor activities.

It was warm, cosy, private and peaceful with the most gorgeous view. The pod has been carefully thought out and we had everything we needed. Loved the little touches of local organic hand wash and shower gel. Thank you for a lovely stay Kim, weâll be back x

The cabin was warm and comfortable and the hot tub and fire pit were a nice touch. The host was readily available but not intrusive, giving swift responses to any questions. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a few days of solitude.

The location was absolutely beautiful and the owners were on hand to help if we needed. I would definitely recommend this property, especially if you have a young child. Our daughter loved the remote area, scenery and hot tub.
