Take one very happy hound with you when you head off to explore the magnificent Dartmoor. This one-bedroom apartment, located in a former stable setting in the heart of the national park, welcomes one four-legged guest as well as two people. Ideal for a dog-loving couple who are keen to immerse themselves in beautiful scenery, while also having shops and restaurants nearby, it is on the outskirts of Moretonhampstead and just 12 miles from the city of Exeter.

Enter the apartment at ground-floor level and then climb the stairs to your main accommodation. Discover a generous bedroom, with a king-size bed and chairs where you can relax with a cup of tea, enjoying the outlook while your furry friend dozes at your feet. Take a couple of steps down into the airy, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with its vaulted and beamed ceiling. Feed your cheerful chum and whip up romantic meals for two. Make a fresh cup of coffee in the machine, watch the Smart TV and light the wood burner so you can all spend some quality time together. Enjoy a long hot bubble bath before bed each night. Wake up and take your pal over to the shared field to stretch his legs before having breakfast on the shared patio on warm mornings. The apartment comes with parking for two cars.

Discover many great beauty spots in the area that you can enjoy with your perfect pet. Strike out to Blackingstone Rock, 3 miles away, a dramatic outcrop of rocks with spectacular views out across Dartmoor National Park. Visit Castle Drogo, 5.5 miles away, and walk in sections of the scenic grounds together then wander through nearby Teign Gorge.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at the Hayloft, which was immaculately presented and had everything we needed for our stay (including some extra finishing touches). It's one of the best apartments we've stayed in and next time we're in Dartmoor, we'll definitely be looking to stay again. Thanks very much!
