Located midway between Totnes and Newton Abbott, this collection of sympathetically and carefully restored barns and farm cottages enjoy a superb range of on-site facilities including a Roman-style heated indoor swimming pool (no additional charge), a traffic-free and child-friendly setting with young children’s play area and a furnished games room with pool table, table tennis, table football and toys for younger guests.



Nearby there is a range of quality restaurants and pubs serving an excellent range of food to suit all tastes and budgets. The surrounding area offers a beguiling mix of attractions to suit all tastes and ages. The seaside towns and villages from chic Salcombe to Torquay on the ‘English Riviera’, with its palm trees and sub-tropical plants, emanate a Mediterranean feel. Totnes is a 10-minute drive away, with a medieval castle and a thriving arts and crafts scene. Teignmouth is a traditional Victorian seaside resort with a nature reserve at Dawlish Warren, a hotspot for bird watching. Exeter has a world famous cathedral, quays and a shopping centre. For the more active, there’s surfing at Bigbury or visit Haldon Forest, with its cycle and nature trails and Go Ape! For the children, Torbay is easily reached, with Paignton Zoo and Living Coasts.



The wild beauty of Dartmoor is 20 minutes away with its abundance of wildlife and dramatic landscapes. Numerous National Trust properties are close by including Agatha Christie’s Greenway. Steam trains travel from Kingswear to Paignton and Totnes to Buckfastleigh. Visit historic Dartmouth with bustling boat harbour, castle, contemporary art galleries and boutiques. Salcombe with its beaches, sailing and watersports is also easily accessible, as well as Blackpool Sands, Slapton and picturesque Dittisham with its annual crab catching competition. Slightly further afield, East Cornwall and the Eden Project are within an hour’s drive, and the East Devon coast is easily accessible with its unique fishing port at Beer and beaches at Sidmouth and Branscombe. Local shops 1½ miles.

We had a great time staying at Rook.

We had a great time staying at Rook. The cottage had everything we needed and was plenty big enough for our family of four. The swimming pool was lovely and warm and a good size for both learners and capable swimmers. We also made good use of the outdoor play equipment. The cottage was well located for visiting the local area with a range of options not far away. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Another fantastic holiday in Devon; we love Rook Cottage so much. It has been refitted with a second bedroom and an amazing bathroom which has been beautifully decorated. There is always such a sense of space in Rook Cottage, which is so restful. We have already booked to come back again next year! Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Lovely well equipped and modern cottage.

Lovely well equipped and modern cottage. Facilities for toddlers are excellent, particularly the play room and the cottage was also well stocked with toys. The complimentary welcome basket on arrival was a nice touch, only ask would be for the swimming pool to open at 8am rather than 9am.

Lovely, spacious cottage with a high quality finish and very well equipped.

Lovely, spacious cottage with a high quality finish and very well equipped. It was very quiet and peaceful but well-located for day trips both inland to Dartmoor and to the coast. The swimming pool was a massive bit with the whole family.

The photos did not do it justice.

The photos did not do it justice. It was beautiful and great attention to detail. A few cob webs and ants but that was the only reason we scored 8. We will defiantly come back loved our stay.

We had a great week at Rook cottage, very comfortable and a well equipped kitchen.

We had a great week at Rook cottage, very comfortable and a well equipped kitchen. The swimming pool was an added bonus and had it all to ourselves when we used it. Although we didn't have any children with us, it would be brilliant for a family, the safe play area and the leisure room are ideal, and there was a highchair and travel cot in the cottage. It was nice to have everything on the same level. It was very quiet and had ample of parking. The only downside is you can't walk into the town and the roads are very narrow.
