Holiday rentals with lake access in Bovey Tracey

We had a wonderful stay at Bridesmere over New Year and it was just what we needed. Peaceful, beautiful area, lovely comfortable home from home. We appreciated the enclosed garden for our spaniel, the beautiful and spacious bedrooms and the living area which was large enough for all 7 of us, two families. WiFi was strong upstairs so no issue with all of us connected and the tv had all apps we needed to watch films with no buffering. There is a beautiful walk through the forest along the river just minutes from the house which leads to a very nice pub serving good food. As other reviews mention, the kids room smells a little musty/damp but this was not a huge issue and we opened the bathroom window after showering which helped. Kitchen well stocked but knives are a little blunt! Children loved the games barn and not having to bring bikes with us was really helpful and appreciated. Overall we couldn’t have asked for a nicer stay and we would definitely return. Thank you for having us.

Wonderful stay. House was immaculate and the views from the garden stunning! Hosts so friendly and helpful!

Harriet's house was perfect for our family get together. the house is maintained to a high standard with all kitchen facilities that could possibly be needed. The sofas and all seating was extremely comfortable as we're the beds. the large downstairs kitchen, diner and livingroom meant nobody was left out, playing games, eating etc. We will look forward to visiting again soon.

We enjoyed our stay. The decor and space is fantastic. Fabulous hotel quality towels and lovely bedding. Well equipped kitchen. No welcome extras or local shop, so pick up milk on the way in. We had a Tesco delivery and saw a Morrisons van too. We didn’t use the courtyard, but as described, it is a useful storage space. Personally, I wouldn’t use it as it was down a grubby alley of bins and is dull. Probably better in warmer season though. Torcross is very quiet and tired out of season, but it was a good place from which to explore. We went up and over to the next cove. Sadly, it has had a lot of storm damage and is dangerous. South Devon is full of wonderful beaches though. Hope Cove is gorgeous! Note that there is a small car park immediately outside the front door - convenient for parking (we never had a problem finding a space), but lots of coming and going and care needed with dog/children.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the cottage is just beautiful, well equipped and in a lovely location, even though it's right on the road there was no noise from passing cars. Louise is a great host and responded to queries quickly. We would love to stay again.

Badgers House was the perfect venue and location for a large family break. House was well equipped and comfortably furnished. The indoor pool proved a knockout with the children - especially as the weather wasn’t great! The indoor games room was a hit for the male adults, who enjoyed hours of pool, and they hit the gym too. The woodland walk was perfect, we spotted a male deer, the children loved it! Hide and seek in the house was so exciting and kept the little ones entertained for hours! Thank you to Max and Alex for being superb hosts and giving us this beautiful home and setting to enjoy. Our granddaughter broke her heart to have to leave! We will definitely be returning and may need Toad Hall next time for more family members to come along and enjoy the beauty of this peaceful place.

Can’t recommend this place enough. Fantastically located in the heart of Bantham village with incredible 180 degrees views of the estuary and Burgh Island. The house is spacious and comfortably accommodated our family of 6 adults and 3 small children. Lisa was a very responsive host and made it all very easy. We would love to visit again!

Incredible views in the most serene setting you could imagine. The location is also perfect, with a lovely pub opposite and Bantham beach just a short walk away. The property was spacious and well equipped. Highly recommended!

Great place. Comfortable flat. Lovely weekend away.

We had a great stay at Zaneta’s place on our way down to Cornwall with 2 children in tow. The space was exactly as described, clean and cosy with beautiful decor. Great communication from Zaneta, I didn’t have to question a thing! This is our 4th stay at Royal William’s Yard, the location has everything you need right on your doorstep and is a stunning upmarket spot. Will definitely return.

Jo and Graham are great hosts. My dog and I felt welcome immediately. Very good amenities and beautiful surroundings. They went above and beyond for me.

A Charming Coastal Retreat – Highly Recommended!" I recently had the pleasure of staying at Primrose Steps by the Sea, and it was an experience to remember. The property is beautifully maintained, exuding a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The attention to detail in the decor and amenities provided truly enhanced my stay.​ The location is perfect for those looking to enjoy the serene coastal environment. Waking up to the gentle sounds of the sea and having easy access to nearby attractions made my visit both relaxing and convenient.​ Communication with the host was seamless. They were responsive, accommodating, and ensured that all my needs were met promptly. Their hospitality added a personal touch that made the stay even more enjoyable.​ I highly recommend Primrose Steps by the Sea to anyone seeking a peaceful getaway with all the comforts of home. I look forward to returning in the future!

Great property, easy to find and perfect for a 1-2 guests. Jane was friendly and easy to contact. Parking right outside which was a huge plus for us. There was an extra internal door which we assume would link directly to Jane’s property or another airbnb which was locked - this wasn’t listed however, the property still felt secure. Just something for guests to be aware of. Thanks for a great stay - would recommend for anyone wanting to be in close proximity to Newton Abbot.

I can't say enough about how amazing Cherilyn is! She went above and beyond for us. Her property is in an exquisite area, and had everything we needed. The village has lots of quaint, and interesting nooks and crannies to explore. Just the right balance between nature and a lovely, friendly village. Two fresh, local Cornish pasties were waiting for us on arrival, and they were to die for 😋 I would highly recommend staying here! Thanks again for having us in your lovely annex. We will be back!! ❤️

We had a lovely stay at Glenn’s apartment, Glenn was extremely helpful, the property was in a perfect location with a beautiful view, looks exactly like the photos if not better! We felt right at home and would definitely stay again. Only thing I would say is there was a strange smell which did not shift, could’ve been a smell from below apartments however lingered throughout our stay and had to open windows. No oil as mentioned on listing either, however, not a problem as there was a convenience store very close by :). Loud family below however this cannot be helped. Great stay overall, and would recommend to others.

Beautiful flat ideally situated on Torquay cliffs - which means a fun 5-minute hike up and down the paths for the beach. The flat is decorated with nautical theme and is super comfortable, quiet, peaceful. We had everything we needed from soaps and dishwasher tabs to towels and gowns. Would stay here again.

Really nice place to stay, house was fantastic, clean, well equipped and in a great location. Will highly recommend.

Really enjoyed break. A car is needed to visit anywhere. Walking is good, but difficult for me with having two people with different disabilities. Did enjoy the pool and peaceful atmosphere. Lovely log fire. Thank-you

This is a perfect cottage in a perfect spot. We have loved coming here again. Everything was great with the accomodation, well equiped, comfy beds, love the log burner, really appreciate the parking permit. Nothing negative to say, wish I lived here. Thanks for a great stay.

We've stayed with Julie last yeat and we were as happy this time as we were the first. Lovely and friendly and showed me the other accommodations she has which were beautiful and very well thought out with everything you could possibly need. We will definitely be going again. I cannot fault this accommodation at all.

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. We were attending an event at HMS Raleigh, so the cottage was ideally situated for our needs. There is plenty to do in the surrounding area, that is not more than a few minutes away. The cottage had everything we needed as we did a mixture of eating in and out. Jess was extremely responsive and gave lots of local suggestions of things to do and places to eat. I highly recommend this cottage.

Lovely little cottage in good location with river view from upstairs and parking. Easy access to plymouth centre by ferry and bus, friendly pubs nearby serving food and acces to coastal path for good walks from the doorstep.

Had a fabulous stay at Olivia’s Orchard cottage. Lots to do with farm animals around, Games room, outdoor games and lots of walks to relax and unwind at the property. Property was in proximity to Plymouth and Looe and found it very convenient to explore by car from here.

This was our second time here and we had a great stay. The house is cosy and is very well equipped. The garden space is beautiful and the animals are a delight. Patrick is very welcoming and helpful. We had some lovely walks down to the lakes. Would highly recommend and we will return again.
