Beautiful place and village, very quiet and relaxing, lovely big garden and the bed was super comfy. The local pub only a 1 minute walk away was amazing, lovely home cooked food. Beautiful views of Dartmoor and only a short drive to Tavistock which was also great to explore. Our dog loved it too and everywhere was really dog friendly, we canât wait to come back again soon!

Located in the lovely village of Buckland Monachorum, perfect for those who enjoy Dartmoor and the surrounding villages/towns and even Plymouth City. There is no dedicated parking but we didnât find this to be an issue during our stay & the bus that comes into the village is very handy for those not wanting to always drive. The pathway is mentioned in previous reviews but actually it was managed by an elderly gentleman with limited mobility - just had to take it easy and as with any stay in the countryside bring a torch/head torch as the pathway is dark up until you reach the propertys perimeter and automatic lighting comes on. I Would definitely recommend as had such a lovely stay, the friendly owners are willing and so helpful in answering all of the questions I had prior to our stay too. We will be back! Thank you.

We are so relaxed and ready to come back. Our first break away at Christmas I was very apprehensive about going away that time of year. The cottage is amazing We spent most of our time curled up on the sofa. Everything is at the cottage you can possibly need. Just take yourself some clothes and food you won't want to leave. We didn't the garden area is lovely and quiet we had a few visitors a lovely cat. Squirrels and a Robin. James and Mary have a little gem in Tregona you won't regret booking. I have read that people have had issues with the path way. Yes it's a bit dark on public path but the cottage outside lights are more than adequate. My husband is disabled with problems with his mobility he managed the pathway fine with a little extra care. This little gem set in a stunning friendly village is a must go and visit. The pub is lovely and friendly and is really close to property. Thank you everyone we met there for making us welcome. Shame we didn't get to meet James and Mary. But that just shows you how well everything is maintained and all you needs and requirements are met. Thank you so much James and Mary from the bottom of our hearts 5** be back again next year.
