Rock View Cottage Reviews

Paul - Jun 2025
All the superlatives have already been mentioned before, so my wife and I say Book Now Superb.
John - May 2025
It was a very cosy and well kept cottage with a lot of nature around. The owners were incredibly nice to leave the welcome pack fresh milk from local farm, and really appreciate the card. There is so much history around there, one could spend weeks exploring, a very unique experience of looking back at quarries and mines of the last couple of centauries'. It was truly a great place to unplug from city life. The internet was brilliant, was surprised at how fast it was considering how secluded the property was. Overall great experience
Louis - Apr 2025
Property although small was fine for two people,every thing in the cottage for our week stay was there including very generous welcome pack. The hot tub was great clean and up to temp on our arrival and ready for use,which has not been the case on lots of other lodges weve used over the years.I found the whole week very relaxing we both slept really well,the walks from the lodge were fantastic you could spend days walking through the forest and exploring old mine works absolute beautiful part of the country.we would certainly consider going back to this lodge in the future both hosts are obviously very efficient at what they do full marks.
Amanda - Feb 2025
This was our 3rd visit to this little haven. Tucked away on the edge of the Tamar Trails where you will find acres of woodland walks right on your doorstep you are able to totally immerse yourself in nature and have a reset from life back home.The cottage is beautiful and so warm with underfloor heating in every room. The hot tub is definitely the icing on the cake and we spent every evening relaxing under the starry skies.If you are looking for total chill out relaxation reading a book in front of the log burner then look no further, however if you love to walk in the woods or explore the Dartmoor national park then this is the absolute perfect place for you too.Thank you Nick & Karen for your hospitality and hopefully we will see you again next year!
Ciara - Dec 2024
The cottage was very well equipped and used of a dishwasher was really nice. Well stocked with wood and well heated. Very kind to provide hot drinks dry goods and milk on arrival. The cottage was very clean and in good working order. Games and maps provided too. Hot tub was a lovely addition to the property. Useful cottage guides with all the recommended local amenities and walks. Help with finding the property as needed and just over the road if there are any issues. Feels secluded but shops and town only a 10 minute drive. Highly recommend this place and would happily come again.
ia - Oct 2024
We had a wonderful time at Rock View Cottage. Spotlessly clean, a very comfortable bed. Hot tub was a lovely bonus. It was nice to light the woodburner and have a cosy night. Prefect place to escape and relax. We enjoyed the woodpecker, the cheeky squirrel and so many birds enjoy the bird feeder, nice to just sit and watch nature at its best.

Andrew - Jun 2024
The property was exceptional. Surroundings were idyllic and very peaceful. Everything was outstanding. Kitchen fully equipped and the extras were very much appreciated. The bed was so comfy and big.

Ashley - May 2024
What a wonderful place to stay. Our holiday was perfect, the cottage was clean and cared for to a very high standard and extremely well equipped. It's in a beautiful location, quiet and very relaxing. The hot tub was a lovely touch, we used it every evening. We were made to feel very welcome, thank you Nick and Karen. The flowers, prosecco, chocolate, milk etc were really nice as little extras. We would highly recommend the cottage and hope to return, definitely 1010.Thank you Jules and Ash
Paul - May 2024
Covers for outside chairs. When it stops raining and you want to sit outside you need to wait for the chairs to dry as they are wood.
Liz - May 2024
We thoroughly enjoyed our week stay and really didn't want to leave. The cottage was perfect, super clean and comfortable. Location was very peaceful. The hot tub was the best we have been in on a holiday, it was so good. Highly recommend this cottage.
il - Apr 2024
We had a lovely stay at Rock View Cottage. It was the perfect getaway. Nick welcomed us when we arrived and answered any questions we had. The accommodation was of a very high standard, with flowers, treats and a lovely welcome card, this property was perfect for two. The property is surrounded by trees and to be able to have a hot tub that you could relax in and enjoy the natural surroundings was ideal. The property is in an ideal position with the Tamar trails virtually on your doorstep and it is a short drive into Tavistock. We did not want to come home and would recommend a stay here.
Michael - Apr 2024
This is the 3rd time we have stayed here and we loved every minute of our stay. Our hosts were lovely and the cottage was very cosy.
Linda - Apr 2024
Great little cottage, perfect for a quiet relaxing stay. Right in the middle of the Tamar trails, perfect for walking or cycling. we will be back.
Steve - Mar 2024
The owners were brilliant. They were friendly and attentive but left you to enjoy the holiday. The cottage was superb and in a wonderful woodland setting. Seeing a deer from the hot tub was amazing as were the starry skys at night. Would highly recommend.
e - Mar 2024
On arriving at Rock View cottage we were extremely impressed by the standard of the renovations and the quality of the whole thing. We came for peace, tranquility, wildlife and walks and we had them all in abundance. And to top it all we had the comfiest bed we have ever slept in. Rock View cottage is everything you could wish for and has everything you need. Nick,the owner, was lovely and extremely helpful. The only thing that let us down was the typical English weather! The only word to describe our week is....perfect. Thank you Nick for making us so welcome.We will be back.
tyn - Sep 2023
