Notes: Holly Cottage is very old and has quite narrow and slightly steep stairs. It is, therefore, sadly, not suitable for the less able who could not manage this type of challenge. Parents of young children should also be aware of this as small, unstable children may also find the stairs difficult. Parents bringing young children do so entirely at their own risk and must be wholly responsible for their safety during their stay. There is a courtyard area to the rear of the cottage with a table and chairs. There is a stone shed housing a washing machine for guest use and this can also be used for the storage of pedal cycles at your own risk. There is an off road parking space, particularly useful in Tavistock, as parking can often be difficult.

Good base to explore the Dartmoor

Review Submitted: July 19, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We had a warm welcome in this well equipped cottage with cream tea. Shoppping facilities on the doorstep so that you don`t need to move your car just to buy some things for breakfast. Tavistock is a nice village situated on river tavy with some beautiful old buildings. It`s a good base to explore the Dartmoor. The owners of our cottage Caroline and Nick were very kind and very helpful with any information. They gave us a feeling like being at home. I had some nice talks to our friendly neighbours.

Holly Cottage

Fairfield Australia
Review Submitted: May 6, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
Holly Cottage is a great base for exploring Cornwall and Devon. The cottage was comfortable, spotlessly clean and very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The addition of fresh flowers, cream tea and wine was a great bonus. Use of local guide books and maps was appreciated. Also free wifi internet was useful.

Tavistock is very well placed for exploring Dartmoor and an easy distance to the Eden Project. It is an interesting town to explore.
Our hosts were very welcoming and even mailed home some garments left behind. Caroline always replied promptly to my queries and made planning from Australia painless.
Many thanks. Highly recommended.

Recent Stay - Feb 2009

Scillonian Isles of Scilly
Review Submitted: March 1, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
Holly Cottage is a delightfully traditional and cosy little cottage. Ideal for two or a young family. The cottage is presented to a very high standard and is very well appointed with washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, satalite TV and even wireless internet access. The cottage is located on the edge of town, within a couple of minutes walk of some great dining opportunities (Browns Restaurant, Monterey Jacks and Jack & Jills Fish & Chips can all be recommended),no need to take the car. The cottage is also within easy access of the Dartmoor for those that enjoy walking. An hours drive will get you to the North Devon and Cornwall coasts, or into the historic cities of either Exeter or Plymouth.

We were given excellent information prior to our visit and the owners could not have been more welcoming and helpful. We will be back! and will highly recommend Holly Cottage.
