Hittisleigh is a small, rural hamlet set in mid Devon, located a couple of miles north of the A30 between Exeter and Okehampton. The hamlet is home to the Parish Church of St Andrews, built in the early medieval time with many later historic features such as reputedly the oldest church bells in Devon. Three miles away lies the hamlet of Whiddon Down, home to a fine pub, whilst further afield is the market town of Okehampton, where visitors can explore the ruins of Okehampton Castle, a prominent landmark and testament to the town’s medieval past, or explore several galleries and workshops that celebrate the creativity of local artists. The spectacular Dartmoor National Park is easily accessible and boasts a myriad of walking and hiking trails, spanning through unspoiled countryside and local wildlife.

Clean, very comfortable and well appointed, the autumnal decorations on the table were a lovely touch as were the sweets in the Halloween jar. Loved the log burner and unlimited free logs, and the hot tub topped it all off. We had an amazing time and the owners couldnât have been more friendly and helpful. Thank you! The only very minor criticism we have is there was no blind or curtains on the bifold doors but this did not affect our stay.
