Chudleigh, a historic wool town in Devon's picturesque Teignbridge District, is a wonderful day trip destination any time of year. There are relics from the town's Saxon past, such as the names of streets and landmarks, as well as more recent ones, like the caverns at Rock and the Iron Age hillfort that overlooks it. There is a wide variety of services and facilities available to visitors of Chudleigh, including two pubs, an English restaurant, supermarkets, specialty boutiques, and more. Located between the towns of Dunsford (in the north) and Chudleigh (in the south), the Teign Valley is a stunning, steep, wooded valley on the eastern slope of Dartmoor National Park. Christow, Lower Ashton, Higher Ashton, Dunsford, and Hennock offer tranquil getaways with breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside, complete with rolling hills, verdant fields, winding rivers, and picturesque thatched cottages. A walker's delight, the area around Chudleigh offers breathtaking vistas. If you're in the mood for something more strenuous, there are plenty of options in the immediate area. You might go rock climbing, kayaking on the River Teign, mountain biking, or even trekking. Visit the historic seaside resort of Dawlish for a day of fun in the sun and family-friendly activities, including the renowned beautiful black swans, which can be seen at The Lawn and Brook. Visit the historic city of Exeter and take in the sights of the Gothic cathedral, Exeter Castle, and many more attractions. The city is surrounded by magnificent City Walls. If you want to see both the shore and the countryside of Devon, Chudleigh is the best option, as it is close to the Dartmoor National Park and the exciting cities of Newton Abbot, Torquay, and Paignton.

  • John

    Outside showing signs of needing cleaning/repainting but no serious complaints. Minor problems include lack of any hooks to hang anything in both the shower room and the bathroom and a malfunctioning toaster but these were not major issues. Heating was not working correctly on arrival as several radiators including those in both toilet and bathroom were cold and unable to adjust , but these were promptly seen to and rectified when reported on the Monday morning following our arrival. Overall very satisfactory accommodation.
