Plan a romantic getaway filled with endless dog walks and quality time with man’s best friend at this idyllic Devonshire holiday home. Offering a perfect blend of city attractions and countryside adventures, this two-person property is ideal for energetic humans and pups who want a taste of it all.

Outside, an enclosed and furnished private courtyard garden allows you to relax while your dog safely roams. The property also includes a private parking space and storage for bikes and surfboards, making it ideal for active couples.

Pop your dog on the lead and head to Haldon Forest Park (2.5 miles), a magnificent woodland filled with hilly hikes and trails brimming with wildlife. A little further afield, the River Teign marks the edge of Dartmoor, offering scenic riverside walks.

Helen is a very welcoming host and has created a lovely place to stay. Although it is a busy working farm and ice cream parlour with lots of visitors the holiday lets offer a place of quietness and privacy. Wagon Linhay was just right for us, offering a very comfortable bed and plenty of hot water for a shower. It allowed us to visit family who livRead moree nearby as the road access was excellent, no dark country lanes or bumpy track! We are looking forward to returning with family in a few months time to enjoy one of the larger properties. Hide
