Excellent place to stay. We booked out the whole venue for a long weekend and everyone commented how nice it was. Michael and Nicola were very helpful with any enquiries and we would definitely come back again!

Bigbury on sea is only 35 minutes away and such a lovely beach. We also went to Totnes for the day which was also very nice.

Blackadon Farm was an amazing place to stay & explore the surrounding countryside. We stayed in The Sett which was immaculately presented & clean. The bedrooms were very comfortable & kitchen was amazingly well equipped. Our dog Gracie was also provided with a dog hamper upon arrival 🐾 Michael, Nicola & all staff were very friendly, helpful & suggested places to visit including pubs, walks etc. The app provided before our stay was very informative. Thanks for an amazing experience

We explored lots of local dog walks, Forestry England venues such as Haldon Park & Cann Woods were excellent places to visit especially with dogs, both had guided routes to follow We travelled to Totnes which is a lovely town & visited The Watermans Arms pub at Bow Bridge, food was excellent.

Lovely setting, very peaceful and quiet. The Stable was compact, well resourced, and ideal for a short stay. Good parking available, the village is great for walks, and access to the moor was super. Ideal location for other visits locally.

Tinpickle & Rhum at Haytor is worth it… amazing food and if you time it right you can watch sunset over Haytor Rock after dinner. From the back of the Blackadon cottages, walk up to the moor for sunrise/sunset too. Stunning views. Lunch at the Winking Prawn, Northsands, Salcombe is worth the drive. King prawns to rival Australia, a beautiful dog friendly beach, great little walk to Southsands, and far less busy than Salcombe centre. Don’t rely on your sat nav alone… Devon B roads can be tiny with few passing places. However, most folk are super polite and helpful when it comes to sharing the lanes.

The cottage was beautifully decorated and stylish, the beds super comfortable and we had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The location is just stunning and the bedding plants and the trickle of water in the courtyard made the outside as glorious as the inside. The games room was a huge bonus, perfect for our grandchildren and The Hive, where my toddler grandson could borrow a bucket and spade was also a great hit! Lovely idea to have picnic items to borrow too. We loved Blackadon and will be back. Thank you.

Moorhaven is a fabulous place for walks and Dartmoor was perfect for tiring out excitable dogs. We popped into the pub at the bottom of the hill, The Horse and Groom, where a friendly welcome awaited. We used the Indian restaurant, Nandon, in Ivybridge for a takeaway and there is a very good cafe overlooking the river in Ivybridge shopping centre. We were celebrating a family birthday so spent most of our time in the village but enjoyed the farm’s donkeys and goats.
