We received a lovely message from our customers who stayed with us last week.
"Hi Michelle, wanted to leave a review for Holly Cottage …
We were pleasantly surprised at the space in Holly cottage, the video doesn’t do it justice.
Very clean and comfortable accommodation… the beds were wonderful and comfortable which is a big plus. The kitchen was well stocked with appropriate crockery and cooking utensils allowing us to enjoy meals in the cottage.
Communication with yourself was excellent and the pack you sent out was brilliant.
Location was brilliant for exploring the local area and further afield as it was so central.
The garden was a beautiful space and unfortunately with the weather not great didn’t get to use it as much as we would have hoped.
All in all we had a wonderful stay with you and will be recommending to friends and family … especially those with dogs as it was so lovely for Dexter to experience his first holiday 🥰"
It is always hard to show to true size of our cottages but we agree that Holly has lots of lovely space for your family to enjoy.
As some know, we are doing a thing...
At Higher Longford Cottages, we are always looking for ways to enhance the experience of our guests. Our latest project involves an exciting transformation: merging two charming cottages into one spacious, accessible retreat.
Rowan Cottage and Ash Cottage will be converted in November 2024 into one larger, more spacious and accessible friendly cottage.
This endeavour aims to provide a larger, more inclusive space that can comfortably accommodate all guests, including those with disabilities. Our blog shows how this transformation will take place and our commitment to creating a welcoming haven for everyone.

For the safety of the animals, please don't feed them or encourage them to the roads. Just watch from afar and enjoy their beauty. This keeps them and you safer.

A walk with a difference... Bellever audio Walk.
The Bellever audio walk is a 6 mile (10km) circular walk starting from Postbridge Information Centre and gives a mixture of woodland, moorland and riverside walking, intersperced with several archaeological sites, learning about the Dartmoor Pony and fantastic views.
The audio walk is divided into tracks which you can then play when you reach each stopping point, including Kraps Ring and Lakehead Hill, Bellever Tor, Laughter Tor and Postbridge Clapper Bridge.
The accompanying soundtrack music “Poor Man’s Heaven” is courtesy of local Dartmoor folk musician, Seth Lakeman (reproduced by kind permission of Seth Lakeman and EMI).

Drake's Trail in West Devon is a 21 mile cycling and walking route linking Tavistock with Plymouth. This important part of Devon's recreational route network runs through superb countryside with attractive scenery along the western edge of Dartmoor together with much historical and heritage interest.
But the trails aren't just about Drake - they take you through wooded river valleys and across open moorland, up close to fascinating wildlife and history.
Park in Tavistock and enjoy this great walk. Why not walk to Yelverton and enjoy a lovely meal at The Rock. Recommended for their food and drink throughout the year. 🍺🍺
