  Absolutely idyllic, picture perfect and quaint cottage, with amble space for a lovely winter week getaway from city living.

  The cottage was extremely cosy, lovely roaring fires with ample wood kindly supplied by owner. Also, we had a lovely welcome treat of Devonshire cream tea upon arrival, thank you, Charlie, very kind to indeed. The beds/bedding was very comfortable and cosy, underfloor heating was a great hit with our travel cat, who spent most of its time sprawled out on the conservatory floor!! This room was wonderful for breakfast and reading, and we spend the few evenings playing board games we found available here too. The hot tub on the cold winter nights was luxuriating, and was very much in use ! We used herbs we found growing in the garden in some of our cooking, adding to the total comfort of cottage life. We also found the cottage to be a great base for exploring, National Trust Castle Drogo, less than 25mts away, and Dartmoor National Park walks. We also found a beautiful restaurant Bearslake Inn for scrumptious dinner, and The Tors pub with great hearty food after a great walk on the Moors, only a mere 15mts drive away from the cottage. Summing up, Rose cottage ticked more boxes than we had even wished for, we loved the property and highly recommend those wishing an idyllic get away in such a beautiful thatched cottage. Thank you Charlie for your hospitality.

  We really enjoyed our time at Rose Cottage.

  It is a beautiful cottage inside and out. We found the facilities to be excellent. We ate in most nights and the kitchen was well equipped, although a lack of cutlery. The lounge was comfortable and snuggly with a roaring fire. We loved the hot tub and made use of it most nights. We had an issue with the heating upstairs in the bedrooms which is on a separate system. The down stairs is all underfloor heating which is excellent. The upstairs heating wouldn't kick in and seemed to be on a timer. The rooms went down to 10 degrees when we woke in the morning. We contacted Charlie who took it off the timer but it took 3 days of the heating being on permanently to finally get up to 18 degrees. The only issue we found with the property was the busy road right outside. The cars at night race past so fast and can be so loud through the vents on the windows. I had to buy some ear plugs to help sort this. We would recommend Rose Cottage as we had a lovely stay and visited some lovely places and quality pubs throughout the area.

  We had a wonderful week in this perfect cottage.

  The hot tub was used every day and we enjoyed walking the local area as well as Dartmoor paths. We appreciated the tech, such as the kitchen music speaker, WiFi and TV. The games room was so well equipped and contained a game of Mah Jong as well as many family favourites. The cottage itself was very clean and well decorated and the beds and sofas were lovely and comfy. We lit the fire on one cold evening and really enjoyed the warmth. The garden was so very beautiful. A mix of cultured and wild flowers, lovely sloping lawn and a collection of places to sit made it really delightful. The dog loved sniffing around when we were in the tub! Tavistock is a great town to visit and the Peter Tavy Inn fed us well on one occasion. The only addition we might make would be to include a large towel for each person to use in the hot-tub and a decent hairdryer, or perhaps two? In every other way this is a luxury establishment and we would love to return.

  Amazing property with beautiful views and absolutely everything you could need in self-catering accommodation.

  Hot tub was a nice touch and kept clean and as hygienic as possible throughout the week as a shared facility. Owners Matt and Dan were very helpful and friendly! Their cats Dom and Sausage were even more so coming for sleepovers on several of the nights and popping in for the occasional fuss- lovely, furry friends. The house in is a great location for people wanting to explore the local area; during the week we visited: Adrenaline Quarry (great for the dare devils), Carnglaze Caves (beautiful underground experience), Truro Farmers Market (a little further out, around 50 minutes but a nice shopping day), Looe Bay (amazing pasties, fish and chips at Kelly’s and a lovely soft sand beach) and 2 local supermarkets to get supplies for the week (Morrisons and Aldi). We may very well be returning in the future!

  A really wonderful and beautiful space.

  The Cart House was so special for New Year and we really enjoyed our stay. Matt was a lovely host and had everything prepared, finding a bottle of fresh milk at our door step on our first morning was a really lovely touch. Great facilities especially the kitchen which was perfect for cooking. The bedrooms were a great size and super comfy. A great location that was peaceful but also easy to then explore the area. Only a couple of small suggestions, I would have liked a full length mirror or better dressing table style mirror in the main bedroom. The hot tub was such a treat and we enjoyed it our first night but the second time we went to use it, it was very cold and too late to speak to our host which was a little disappointing. We’d absolutely go back again, such a wonderful place! Thank you for our stay.
