The dining table makes a sociable spot for enjoying the company of your partner over meals and drinks, as well as pulling open the map to plan the next day’s adventure. Concluding the interior is the sumptuous king-size bed, complete with a plush duvet to curl under as you decadently tune into the TV, which is hidden in the footboard of the bed itself. The garden at Little Torr is equally as impressive, with wonderful long views and boasting a large manicured lawn with chairs to gather around the barbecue as something tasty sizzles during a balmy afternoon.

    We were made very welcome. Super-comfy bed!

  • Michael

    It was clean with lovely decor, and well thought out in spaciousness. Every amenity thought out beforehand. Also the thoughtfulness of a delicious welcoming package awaiting us upon arrival. The walkway to the cottage was well lit and easy to traverse, even on late nights. Completely private and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you to our hosts. M and J

    The welcoming pack was very thoughtful adding to a well presented property. Previous comments regarding parking are very harsh. It is challenging but no as bad as it fist appears. It is centrally located near to the A30 providing direct routes throughout Devon.
