Set on a hillside within the peaceful grounds of Honicombe Manor Holiday Resort, enveloped by the beautiful Tamar Valley, is this delightful retreat, Hideaway Cottage.
Ideal for family and friends looking to get away and breathe a different kind of air, this Alpine lodge boasts reverse-level accommodation, making the most of the views from the first floor.
Walk through to a tastefully-decorated set of bedrooms on the ground floor, a double, a twin and two 2’6 twins, accompanied by a shower room and a Jack-and-Jill bathroom so you can get ready morning and evening with ease.
There is an open-plan living room upstairs, which enjoys a fully-equipped kitchen for rustling up your best dishes, a dining area for eight, and a lovely sitting area with sumptuous seating, and TV with Freeview and DVD player.
This leads out onto a sunny balcony with dining furniture and views over open countryside; a wonderful place to dine alfresco or enjoy your favourite tipple.
To the exterior, the grasses are bordered by trees and a quiet patio area rest with a hot tub.
Relax in the luxurious bubbles and listen to the sounds of the babbling brook running down the side of the nearby.
The on-site facilities include indoor and a seasonal outdoor heated swimming pools and tennis courts, as well as use of the gym if you're feeling particularly energetic.
Close by is Gunnislake hosting a small selection of shops, pubs and the Tamar Valley Railway with regular services along the riverbank to Plymouth.
Cotehele is a couple of miles away near Calstock, a National Trust property and rustic, working 19th- century mill on the banks of River Tamar, with woodland walks and formal gardens.
Tavistock, with its pannier market, pubs and restaurants is a must, as well as Dartmoor National Park for exploring a region of wild open moorland, distinctive tors and green fields separated by stone walls.
