About this property

Gunnislake 2.3 miles. No 51 Valley Lodges is an attractive holiday lodge, set amongst woodland in the beautiful grounds of Honicombe Manor Holiday Village, in the hamlet of St Ann's Chapel near Gunnislake. In a secluded quiet setting on the edge of the site, this cottage is a perfect getaway for countryside lovers and birdwatchers in Devon. Providing modest, welcoming accommodation with reverse-level arrangement, taking advantage of the stunning outlook from the open-plan living space and balcony, the cottage has a snug and homely feel. The ground floor hosts three bedrooms, a double with en-suite bathroom, and two twins, along with a shower room. After busy days, the lodge has a private hot tub for you to unwind while admiring the views. With an on-site tennis court and walks from the doorstep to nearby NT Cotehele alongside the sweeping Tamar River, there is something to occupy the whole family. For the less energetic, there is a picturesque train journey to Plymouth from the local station, where passengers enjoy the spectacular scenery of the Tamar Valley, an AONB, on the way. Children will love the donkey sanctuary within walking distance or maybe visit Morwhellham Quay where The Edwardian Farm was filmed, which is a Victorian mining village with lots of activities within the living history theme. Dartmoor National Park is a short drive away providing walks, historic legends and plenty of ponies. This cosy lodge provides an ideal base to explore the well-known Tamar Valley. Note: This property is near to Ref. 3933, together they sleep 12.

Gunnislake is a small settlement on the Tamar River. There are pubs and shops. The settlement is one end of the picturesque Tamar Valley Railway, which runs to Plymouth. Dartmoor, south and north coast beaches, and Cornwall's extreme west are all nearby. Tavistock, with its pannier market, bars, and restaurants, and Calstock, known for its crafts and festivals, are nearby. The Donkey Sanctuary and Cotehele House and Gardens (NT) are 10 minutes apart. Enjoy a play of golf at St Mellion (8 miles), visit the restored Victorian mining community at Morwellham Quay (4 miles), look for otters and deer along the Tamar Valley pathway, or visit the National Trust owned Lydford Gorge. Why not take the Tamar Valley Railway to Plymouth and visit the Marine Aquarium or Plymouth Hoe?

    The hosts Val & Steve went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful holiday. The lodge itself was exceptionally clean and well looked after, A fully equipped kitchen provided us with everything we needed. The beds were super comfy.

    The park it was situated on was also very quiet which made for a very relaxing break.
