The Humble Bee
£190.00 per night
If you choose to venture out of Humble Bee in search of the sweet nectar of adventure, then the wilderness of Dartmoor is merely a bumble away. Take the short tramp to the Railway cafe or grab bikes from the nearby youth hostel, get a good route from Yvette and range a little further. You’re just a hop from town, so you might hear the nearby park and local school from time to time, but it also means you can drop into the shops of Okehampton then retire to Humble Bee’s kitchen to cook up a storm. There is even a hot tub shared with your neighbours in The Bird Box and Moonbeam Yurt at Honeyside Down. However, it’s in the cosy den of the hive where you’ll likely spend most of your time - soaking in the amazing private outdoor bath and napping and luxuriating in the wonderfully creative habitat of Humble Bee.

The Cottage in Salcombe is like stepping into a luxury oasis of calm, away from the stresses and strains of the modern world. Recently renovated to the highest standard and with space for up to six guests, it’s your perfect base to explore the South Devon AONB, Dartmoor National Park and the beautiful beaches, cliffs and coves of the South Devon Coast. After a long day, unwind on your large, luxury terrace that boasts glorious views of the Kingsbridge Estuary and rolling countryside. The light, airy and open-plan kitchen, living and dining area is truly the heart of the home. White walls, neutral decor and natural wood finishes bring the outdoors in and encourage you to slow down.

The central breakfast counter ensures you’re never missing a thing as the other guests relax and unwind in the cosy living area or sit around the large dining table. The comfy living area features thick, plush sofas with windows that look out over the rolling Devonshire countryside. In the colder months, light the log burner and snuggle up under a blanket with a good book or a movie on the large smart TV. In the summertime, spend your downtime on the large terrace that features space for the whole family to dine alfresco, unwind and catch some rays on the outdoor sofas or fire up the BBQ and grill up a feast. With panoramic views, it’s the perfect place to watch the sun go down with a glass of something cold, play a game or simply reconnect with the ones you love. As the night draws in, it’s time to head to one of the three double bedrooms that feature large beds, thick bedding and comfy pillows to rest tired heads. The shared bathrooms feature walk-in showers, deep baths and courtesy toiletries. In the morning, wake up with a refreshing shower, ready for a day spent exploring South Devon. Salcombe is a picture-perfect town that’s ideal for exploring on foot. The busy harbour and town centre are just minutes away, boasting quiet streets lined with independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs. Further afield the cities of Plymouth and Exeter offer everything you could need, and the towns of Torquay, Paignton and Brixham are perfect for the whole family. Those who love the outdoors will find plenty of walking, biking and riding trails throughout the South Devon AONB, Tamar Valley AONB and Dartmoor National Park.

The Bull Inn
- 0
- 1 night
£135.00 up to £175.00 per night
The Bull Inn in is an organic, ingredient-led pub, that offers guests a wonderfully comfy stay in the Devon countryside. This Devonshire gem is fully committed to keeping its environmental footprint to a minimum - which fits perfectly into the alternative and bohemian approach the market town is known for. There are eight rooms at the inn. This includes two king size rooms and six super-king rooms, each with an en-suite. Four of the super-king rooms can alternatively be made up as twins to ensure more versatility. Two of these have en-suite bathrooms with a tub, and the other two have en-suite shower rooms. These slightly larger rooms also have enough space for a cot if you're travelling with a baby. Each room is truly unique and is completed with an array of furniture from antique fairs and flea markets. There are also bespoke touches, such as the bedside lamps carved from Dartmoor wood, while original features such as open fireplaces and high ceilings have been preserved where possible. The building itself has undergone a huge refit and refurbishment, but most of the original fittings and furnishings have been reclaimed or upcycled to give a quirky feel. While the old has been preserved as much as it can be, this is mixed with modern living - such as solar panels on the roof, a heat recovery system throughout, as well as stylish bathrooms and plush carpets underfoot. The bar is full of fabulous organic wine as well as organic draught beers from Stroud Organic Brewery and spirits. There is a relaxed and informal feel with an open kitchen and a mixture of locals and those staying mingling together in what has been lovingly described as a “decent boozer”. The historic town of Totnes where The Bull Inn is situated is now synonymous with eco-living and a different way of life. The high street is home to a wide range of independent and unique shops selling an array of ethical products, wholefoods, and fair trade goods. It is also full of natural beauty, located as it is on the banks of the River Dart and close to Dartmoor National Park and South Devon’s beautiful sandy beaches.
