The Cabin is wonderfully isolated with everything you could need for a relaxing base in a beautiful area of the country. It is rustic and the grounds of the trout farm in which it is located are fabulous, with lots of grass areas for playing, access to the woods for exploring and no ambient light for star gazing! It is close enough to the main motorway to mean getting out and about is easy. A wonderful array of books, DVD's and magazines provided plenty of evening entertainment and the outdoor furniture and BBQ meant we could indulge in "out" as much as possible for meals.
A perfect setting for a great fly-fishing holiday; it was everything we could possibly want and more; a fabulous easily accessible trout lake in superb surroundings. A comfortable cabin with ample space for fishing kit under veranda, also there's a great local eatery and well equipped shop.
What a great place! Hidden away, and nice and quiet. Hiking in the woods and fishing were great, and the owners were very kind. Look forward to return visits.
The setting was fabulous. We were able to just leave our cabin and walk through the woods behind us on a crazy wood adventure following the stream that led us to sheldon woods. We also loved the basicness of it and we really enjoyed the log fire and the whole back to nature feel. The owner was very friendly but left us to it. It was nice to not have any signal and just escape without the kids and just enjoy doing very little. I think anyone that visits here needs at least two nights as it takes a night and a day to fully appreciate the simplicity of the cabin. This is a superb place for dog walking and kids as the exploring we did was fantastic. We will visit again when the kids are a little older and they can explore the woods and stream safely.
Wonderful accommodation and scenery, very friendly owners. Just outstanding!
Another fabulous holiday here, excellent for exploring the forest. Clean, quiet retreat - bliss! Will be returning again next year.
We loved the location and the tranquillity, particularly some decent wildlife viewing! It's a great place to have as a base for exploring Devon.
The location and immediate surroundings. The owner was friendly & knowledgeable about all the birds & wildlife in the vicinity. We were left to our own devices but there was help at hand if we sought it.
We had a lovely stay in The Cabin. We wanted a quiet weekend away from the world and that's what we got. It was in lovely peaceful surroundings and the log burner was lush! The shower was lovely too.
The Log Cabin is a very cosy secluded break. Comfortable with great owner.
The peace and quiet was lovely with wonderful walks in the woods.
Very nice place and left to ourselves,
However owner on hand if we needed anything.
This holiday was a complete break away from everything. The Log Cabin is in a very isolated spot which is perfect if you want peace and quiet. The surroundings were fabulous and you can just sit and enjoy the tranquillity. There are loads of dog walks around the property. For a complete break away from the stresses and strains of modern life I can't recommend it high enough.
The location of the cabin was fantastic, especially with our two very large dogs! The forest behind the cabin made great walks for us and the dogs, very peaceful and quiet. If it's relaxation, peace and quiet you are seeking, then this is the place for you.
The setting of the cabin was more than expected. Even though the owner was close by we were left to our selves which is what we wanted.
This property ticked every box for me, it is a simple place for those who enjoy a simple quiet life. The location was exactly what I wanted and wished for; secluded, close to nature, quiet, a place to contemplate the important things in life and enjoy it.
I can now see why its always booked up in advance!The owner was very pleasant and helpful. The log fire was also a lovely feature in the living room.
The cabin looked beautiful and the woods was amazing to walk through. Tourist places are close by and the town of Honnington has lots of antique shops with some good finds.
This was totally what it said on the tin, lovely peaceful and quiet. Beautiful area, lovely people that run it and the surroundings were equally lovely. The cabin was very comfy and cosy for an evening and the bed was equally comfy.
Quiet location so able to relax and unwind. Helpful owners. Nearby fishing lake.
Beautiful, secluded and quiet surroundings. We walked everyday with the dog and the children loved the woods. We will definitely be returning!
We had a truly fantastic time at The Log Cabin. The owners are really great and friendly and make your stay wonderful. The Log Cabin is very well equipped for your stay and the peace and quiet and wonderful views of the pools are outstanding. Will be visiting again. Thank you.
Location, views, peace and quiet. Owners terrific and friendly. Felt comfortable with The Log Cabin. c
The scenery from the top of the driveway hill was excellent. A really beautiful area. Lovely relaxing cabin - peaceful.
We enjoyed the solitude of our stay.
It was really peaceful, a nice get away from everything - the dog loved it! There were scones in the fridge when we arrived :) I will definitely visit again :) we had the best time. The photos on the website don't show the best features.
The woods,the peace, the quiet and the dogs had so much freedom.
The isolation! We hardly saw any one all week. It was so quiet I could've spent more time there; just me and my wife and the dogs. All together it was my idea of heaven. A great holiday. The cottage was set up for people with dogs. All together a wonderful time was had by all.
Peace and quiet and the friendliness of the owners.
The property was fantastic. Great freedom for the dog - we loved it!
We enjoyed the peaceful tranquility, the sound of moving water, the lovely cream tea on arrival and the comfy double bed.
The cream tea provided by the owners was appreciated after a long journey and was a nice welcome. The peace and quiet was wonderful. It was good that the owners left us to our own devices but were available if needed.
We had a great time. The owners are nice people and very helpful. There were so many places to visit and we just ran out of time.
5stars A+++ we will be back next year thats for sure.
This was our second stay at the Log Cabin and we loved every minute. The cabin is cosy and the setting so peaceful. Perfect for a break from everything. Back next year!
The owners were really helpful as we got snowed in! Lovely cabin in beautiful woodland, would definitely go there again.
Peace and quiet, the owners were there if you needed them but did not intrude on our holiday, very nice couple.
The rural setting, the grounds, fishing ponds, and surrounding forest. The log cabin itself is really cosy and the owners are friendly and helpful.
Quiet location, away from it all. The property allowed us to bring our dogs.
The position and solitude of the cabin. The rustic yet totally acceptable accommodation. The cabin was better than I expected. The owners were patient teachers of fly-fishing when faced with a city girl to teach.
The setting and surroundings were really nice. The Log Cabin was very homely.
Completely out of the way and peaceful, with Dartmoor and Exmoor on the doorstep. The place is naturally freezing in winter, but once the wood burner is roaring away it's snug as you like. The owners are a smashing couple and I dare say if I was into fishing and it was summer, I'd have liked their trout fishery too.
It was lovely and secluded. The cabin was really cosy and clean and we had a really relaxing time. The cream tea in the fridge for us when we arrived was a lovely touch.
Very remote, beautiful surroundings, nice touch to have scones on arrival and the pre order of champagne on ice very organised.
The site is really nice. The welcome was warm and friendly and the owners did everything to make it a nice holiday.
The peace and quiet, and being away from it all. A very tranquil setting!
The wonderful, remote location - especially having the opportunity to be amongst the real farming community of Devon.The wood-burning stove was most welcome and the complimentary Devon cream tea on arrival was a lovely, thoughtful touch.
We had a great week and enjoyed it very much.
The Cabin was set in a nice and secluded place, forestry all around, ideal for anyone with dogs. Owners were great, just left you to it and very helpful. All in all had a lovely time.
We loved every minute of our time there, the whole area was second to none. The dog loved it too and was just as sad to leave as we were.
It was a stress free break - we were left to get on with it. The log cabin was beautiful and exactly as you would hope for so it had a 'wow' factor when we arrived. The area is near some great places which would make me want to return for a longer break with children.
The area of Devon it was in. Great open space for the dogs.
The Cabin is in a lovely, secluded, peaceful location, and very cosy. The people were very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely go back there again.
We liked the quiet location, my son enjoyed the fishing and my dog loved it all.
The absolute peace and quiet. We could take our family dog, and the surroundings were perfect. The owners were friendly and accommodating and very pleasant. We enjoyed it so much we have already booked 2 weeks next year!
Enjoyed the peace, and the owner was very welcoming. The grounds were lovely, and lots to do within a short drive. We will book again in future, thank you.
Our experience at The Log Cabin was thoroughly enjoyable. The owners were incredibly helpful and attentive. Was in a great location. Highly recommended!
The owners were very kind, helpful and accommodating. We were made to feel very welcome.
Setting of cabin very good, very quiet and peaceful.
Tranquil, lovely countryside, friendly people, secure.
Nice and quite.
Peaceful, beautiful surroundings.
The owners were more than happy to help with any queries we had. Ten out of ten for the way they made our stay perfect. We hope to stay with one of your properties again.
The Log Cabin was in an ideal setting. It was peaceful and quiet, a real 'break away'. The hosts are so happy to help and were friendly and approachable. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who likes to fish and wants to escape from everyone and everything for a few days.
Brilliant weekend, just brilliant !
The Log Cabin was just what I needed, peace, quiet and solitude. The owners are very friendly and can't do enough to help you if you need them. I'll be back.
A lovely location, very peaceful. The owners were friendly and helpful. The dogs loved the woods and little streams. It was the perfect getaway location.
...Peace and quiet and friendly owners, nice walks for the dog.
It was excellent.
I liked the location; the seclusion and peacefulness.
Location is ideal for two adults and a dog. The surrounding woods are lovely and our dog enjoyed it thoroughly.
The surroundings are fantastic and the access to the fishing was an extra bonus.
Great place for the children (mind the lake!). Our dogs loved the woods.
The Log Cabin is an ideal get away from it all holiday. It is so relaxing, the surrounding woodlands are full of wild life and a squirrel likes to visit.
We loved our second stay at the log cabin. The setting is amazingly tranquil, the owners friendly and welcoming and the location perfect for visiting the many local attractions. The short journey to Branscombe beach and the whole Jurassic coast made the holiday great for myself, the children and even the dog. We can't wait to go back!
We have just used your company for the first time and would like to let you know how much we enjoyed our break. The log cabin was just how you described it in your brochure, it was one of the most relaxing breaks we have had, and the owners were marvellous. We will definately be using you again in the future. Thank you for an excellent service.
Stunning views from every window. Beautiful surroundings. Peaceful.
Great woodland walks - didn't see a soul. Lots of wildlife. Inglenook fireplace with wood burner. Exactly what we were looking for.
The location of the Log Cabin was perfect, out of the way, peaceful etc. It was exactly what we needed. My husband enjoyed the fishing (caught his largest ever trout!). The owners were friendly and helpful. The Log burning stove/fire was great. The dog enjoyed his walks!
Local countryside was beautiful and the log cabin situated in a lovely spot with woodlands all around and a lovely lake to walk around, children enjoyed exploring in the woods. We received a warm welcome and the owners were really nice.
We had a brilliant time in the quiet surroundings. The peace and quiet was just what we needed. The owners were very helpful and friendly. All in all a week that seemed to last a month.
Had a great time. Owners were very welcoming. My dog (Rosie) thought the Forest behind the cabin was brilliant. Very safe area for dogs as not near any roads. Lovely and peaceful and very pretty area.
The owners are really helpful and friendly people and have obviously taken care in restoring the Log Cabin. Using the woodburning stove, it was really warm at night and the back up convector heating wasn't needed during the night. I loved being able to walk out of the door and into the woods, the Blackdown Hills and the wonderful wildlife on the doorstep. The lake was also a great hit with my dog, and the area was really quiet, we met absolutely no-one when walking in the forests. Its a great holiday for people who want peace, quiet and nature.
The woods to the rear of the cabin were a great source of adventure for the children. They loved the streams, hills and trails. Welly boots are a must!! The coarse lake was great for the 9 year old - he was able to catch 4 or 5 roach in an evening. For those warm evenings, sitting out on the grass with a glass of wine waiting for the BBQ - perfect
