    Danny was a perfect hostess, offering lots of very useful information.The cottage was very warm and cosy, and situated at the confluence of the East and West Dart rivers, offered spectacular walks.

    Ms Hays cottage is a little hidden gem. The cottage is built with local stone and has been converted to a holiday cottage very sympathetically.Ms Hay is very good host and was attentive to all my needs. The cottage is well equipped with all mod cons. The cottage also has a car charging point which was very handy for topping up my car.It is a five minute drive to the Dartmoor National Park where you can see the famous ponies.Tavistock is the main local town with a Morrisons and Tesco and a good market. My drive to the cottage was quite long mainly due to motorway upgrades, the cottage was worth the five hour drive.Peaceful, tranquil and well appointed I would thoroughly recommend.
