Paul August 2024

“Due to a change in our circumstances this was a last minute booking and we were not disappointed.”

The property fully lived up to the photos and descriptions on the web site. Parking at the side of the property easily accommodated our estate car (which was one of my main requirements). We had a very enjoyable stay for our visit to this part of Devon. Hope to return again.

- Paul, August 2024

Thank you for such lovely comments. So glad you enjoyed your stay at Clearview and thank you so much for leaving the property ‘spotless’ very much appreciated. Please come again. Property Owner
Jane August 2024

“A lovely cottage with plenty of room for five.”

The conservatory provided a lovely family room for us and our dog and the stair gates were great for providing a dog friendly space. A great location within the Saxon walls, with a popular pub and amazing walks.

- Jane, August 2024

Thanks for the great feedback. Glad you enjoyed your stay and our historical village too. Come and see us again sometime. Property Owner
John June 2024

“A nice, clean cottage with a lovely garden.”

We found everything we needed in terms of kitchen equipment. Clearview is conveniently situated for walking on the moors or at the beautiful Lydford gorge and for dining at the excellent Castle inn. The road was a little busier than we anticipated, but there was no problem sleeping. Although it wasn’t a problem for us, the lack of a second bathroom is probably the only negative. Overall, I would thoroughly recommend this property.

- John, June 2024

Thank you for your feedback. So pleased you enjoyed Clearview and the village too. Noted your comments regarding a second bathroom and one to consider. Thanks again and please come again sometime. Property Owner

“Good place to stay”

- Peter, May 2024
Elaine December 2023

“The cottage had everything we needed.”

The owners Pip and Hugh were on hand and made sure we had settled in nicely. The welcome pack was a lovely touch. Ideal location for visiting strawberry fields, Dartmoor ect.

- Elaine, December 2023

Thank you for your feedback. So glad you enjoyed your stay at Clearview. Please come again. Property Owner
Pete October 2023

“Everything was perfect, thank you.”

“This is a lovely holiday cottage and we enjoyed our stay here.”

- Amanda, September 2023

Thank you so much for your comments. So glad you enjoyed your stay. Please come again. Property Owner
Julia September 2023

“Clearview is a lovely property with some good facilities.”

The owners are a couple of doors down and helped immediately when we advised the microwave had stopped working. Lydford is a lovely village also with the Castle Inn situated in the village and the Dartmoor Inn just up the road. The only reason I gave 4 stars rather than 5 was the terrible weather we had!!

- Julia, September 2023

Great feedback, thank you very much indeed. Lovely to have you staying at Clearview, and glad you enjoyed the village too. Please come again. Property Owner
Ruth April 2023

“A lovely home in a fantastic location.”

Appreciated the lovely welcome basket and card. P.s the shower is amazing - perfect for after a moorland hike!

- Ruth, April 2023

Lovely to read your comments. Thank you so much. Really glad you enjoyed staying at Clearview and you enjoyed the welcome basket. We look forward to welcoming you again soon! Property Owner
Thomas April 2023

“A lovely clean, comfortable and well-equipped cottage in a great location for visiting Dartmoor and other attractions.”

Thank you very much for the generous welcome pack!

- Thomas, April 2023
Elaine March 2023

“Maybe another comfortable seat in the TV room to accommodate the whole family”

- Elaine, March 2023

Thanks for your feedback. Yes, agree, that’s something we’ve thought about too, but not sure how it would fit in as the room is not very big. Lovely to meet you though and hope to see you again sometime. Property Owner
Lynne January 2023

“Lovely cottage, well equipped and great location.”

We loved the log burner and the sheep just outside the window! A great week, we hope to return.

- Lynne, January 2023

Thank you for your comments. So glad you enjoyed your stay at Clearview and look forward to seeing you again sometime. Property Owner
Naomi October 2022

“I know other dog owners have mentioned this previously but I think it should be clearer that the garden is not secure.”

Fantastic property and we had a fabulous visit and will definitely come back.

- Naomi, October 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We have contacted Sykes who have now made it very clear in the property details that the garden is not secure for dogs. I hope this will help with future expectations. So glad you had a good holiday and kept your dogs safe. Hopefully see you again sometime. Pip and Hugh. Property Owner
Stephen September 2022

“The cottage was very comfortable and plenty of space having the two lounges and conservatory to spread out, if someone want to watch tv, someone else can read a book in another room.”

Our dog enjoyed close by walks and the garden, although not totally dog secure so needed to be on a lead. Lydford gorge in walking distance was a bonus. Tavistock and Okehampton are easily to get to with local buses. Excellent dog friendly pubs nearby, the Castle Inn just down the road serves excellent food. The owners were very friendly and helpful and dealt with a minor problem with one of the taps instantly. We would have no hesitation in recommending a stay at Clearview. Steve & Angie London

- Stephen, September 2022

What lovely feedback, thank you so much for your comments and I’m so glad you enjoyed Clearview and the village too. You were here for a few weeks and fortunately the weather was reasonable so you were able to get out and about and visit many of our local attractions including our own wonderful pub. Yes, I take on board your comments regarding the security of the garden and I’m glad you kept your dogs safe. Maybe we can find a way to make the garden more dog friendly?? Anyway, thank you for leaving the property spotlessly clean and tidy, we really appreciate that. Hope to see you again sometime. Pip and Hugh. Property Owner
Ian August 2022

“Very comfortable and well organised property set in a lovely Village close to a very good Pub and dog walks.”

- Ian, August 2022
Gary August 2022

“Lovely and homely cottage in a great location for Dartmoor and West Devon/North Cornwall.”

An old cottage with character and feels spacious. Very clean and welcoming when you arrive. Loads of nice walks and pubs right on your doorstep and lovely hosts.

- Gary, August 2022
Sue July 2022

“Lovely character cottage in idyllic village.”

Everything was spotlessly clean. Very friendly owners made us feel extremely welcome with basket of goodies and came to check that we had everything that we needed. We had 3 dogs and that was no issue, most cottages only accept 2. Sadly, it was my old lab's last week before passing but he had a fabulous week at Clearview and we have very happy memories.

- Sue, July 2022

Thank you for your lovely comments. It was so nice to have you staying at Clearview and thank goodness the weather was good and you could visit so many of the beautiful places around here. Glad the dogs enjoyed their holiday too, but somewhat sad to hear the news about your lab. So sorry for that. Anyway, do hope to see you again sometime if you travel this way again. Property Owner
Nicole July 2022

“We had a wonderful time staying at your holiday cottage.”

The cottage is very well equipped and thought through and the surrounding countryside is so beautiful! Many thanks for your help getting the shed ready so we could store our bicycles!

- Nicole, July 2022
Alan June 2022

“What a fabulous holiday cottage, it really is a home from home, with all the facilities required for an excellent vacation.”

The garden area is a wonderful place to relax, with seating in several locations along with a garden room. Lots of games and a 'wendy' house for the children as well. And, the location couldn't be better for visiting Dartmoor, and the pub is 200m down the road! The hosts are very friendly and accommodating, and there are numerous walks within easy reach. Highly recommended.

- Alan, June 2022

Thank you very much for your lovely feedback. It’s so good to know that you enjoyed the cottage and the village and pub too, it really does mean a lot to us. We try to make sure our guests are comfortable and have everything they need to enhance their stay here. Thanks again and we do hope to see you again sometime. Property Owner
Melanie May 2022

“Brilliant location and friendly village.”

The cottage was perfect. Whilst pets were allowed they were restricted from certain areas of the cottage and the garden was not as secure as we would have liked.

- Melanie, May 2022

Thanks for your feedback and glad you enjoyed your stay. Yes, we do ask that dogs are kept to the downstairs if possible. We don’t ask for the usual £20 per dog cleaning fee and therefore feel it is reasonable to help keep our cleaning time down so we can let guests in at a reasonable time of 3pm. I agree, the garden is not secure for dogs and we don’t advertise it as being secure. However we love dogs and having them here to stay. Perhaps we should make it very clear in our advert with Sykes to make people aware. I do hope we will see you again sometime. Property Owner

Great location with access to walks on Dartmoor from the door Nice local pub 2 mins walk Lovely, well equipped cottage, photos don’t do it justice Helpful and friendly owners Welcome pack was a nice touch with wine and local milk Would definitely recommend

- Joanne, May 2022

Thank you very much for this lovely feedback and so glad you enjoyed your stay at Clearview. You were great guests and we would love you to visit again in the not too distant future. Thank you for mentioning the welcome basket, as it’s something I enjoy making up for our very special guests. Best wishes Pip and Hugh. Property Owner
Patricia May 2022

“Clearview is in a perfect location for visiting Dartmoor but at the same time is not too remote It is extremely close to a very good pub and a little further to a farm shop and two National Trust tea rooms.”

Lydford Gorge itself is just a short stroll away. The cottage was well presented and homely and had everything you needed in a holiday cottage. The welcome pack from the owners was extremely nice. The garden was very pleasant and it was nice to have a view of the moors.

- Patricia, May 2022

Thank you for your comments and so glad you enjoyed staying at Clearview. We look forward to welcoming you again sometime. Property Owner
Paul April 2022

“This was a beautiful cottage in a lovely quiet village, yet within walking distance of an excellent pub/restaurant and easy driving distance of several others.”

The village is perfectly located for visitors wishing to maximise their scope for exploring all of Devon and Cornwall.

- Paul, April 2022

Thank you very much for your positive feedback. So glad you enjoyed the cottage and the area too. Yes, it’s a lovely location for the moors and not far from great beaches too. Hope you can make it back here again sometime. Property Owner
Phil March 2022

“Great property, comfortable, warm and spacious.”

Location is perfect for the moors and exploring east Devon. Generous welcome basket was appreciated. Clearview is a quality property which we highly recommend.

- Phil, March 2022

Thank you so much, such lovely feedback and greatly appreciated. So glad you enjoyed your holiday and staying at Clearview. Hope to see you again sometime. Property Owner
Cressida March 2022

“Really beautiful spacious cottage in a gorgeous location.”

Couldn't fault it. It's definitely one of our favourite cottages we have stayed in through Sykes Cottages. The decor is really classy and the facilities are excellent. Loved the view out the window from the conservatory. We didn't let our dogs off the lead in the garden as there are sheep in the adjoining field, but the dogs loved their holiday too. Lydford Gorge is only a 5 minute drive away and has lovely walks there. Thanks Pip and Hugh for a great stay. X

- Cressida, March 2022

Thank you very much indeed. That’s lovely to receive such great feedback. It was so nice meeting you and glad you enjoyed your holiday at Clearview. Maybe we’ll see you again sometime.. Property Owner
Michelle February 2022

“The cottage is beautiful with everything you could possibly need, we have stayed twice and love it.”

The double bed creaks loudly everytime you move and takes some getting used to. We will be back again

- Michelle, February 2022
Hannah February 2022

“Clearview was a real home from home for us!”

Lovely cosy comfortable cottage - our children loved the toys and playhouse. We loved the welcome basket of goodies when we arrived, a really thoughtful touch.

- Hannah, February 2022

Thank you so much for your feedback and so glad you all enjoyed your stay at Clearview. We really appreciate your comments and glad you enjoyed your welcome basket. It would be lovely to see you again sometime. Property Owner
Steven January 2022

“Very nice cottage set in a wonderful location, and it had everything we needed, friendly, helpful, non- intrusive owners.”

The only small negative , the garden was not really secure for the dogs, there were places where they could get out .

- Steven, January 2022

Thank you so much for your feedback and so glad you enjoyed your stay at Clearview. I agree regarding the garden not being dog secure, and it would be lovely if it was, however, it would be very difficult to achieve without spoiling the look of the garden. Hopefully see you again sometime. Property Owner
Sarah December 2021

“We had a wonderful time at Clearview, the house is so comfortable and cosy, the views of the moor are beautiful and the local pub (1 min) is really friendly.”

Helen October 2021

“We had a lovely few days in this beautiful village of Lydford and would thoroughly recommend it.”

It is within walking distance of a fantastic pub, the Castle Inn and the cottage itself is wonderful. The surrounding area is stunning and the Lydford Alpacas are within a short drive. Walking within on the moors is an absolute must if your in the area. We would definitely come back!

- Helen, October 2021
Geoffrey October 2021

“This was a return visit for us and it was as good as the last time we came.”

Very friendly owners.

- Geoffrey, October 2021
Karen September 2021

“Rugs in kitchen and dinning room were filthy, no table and chairs to sit out in ...”

Rugs in kitchen and dinning room were filthy, no table and chairs to sit out in the garden Apart from that lovely cottage overall

- Karen, September 2021

Unfortunately the rugs being in a high trafficked area get dirty quickly. We have however replaced these following your feedback. There are two garden benches in the garden for guests to use. One is on a raised area where the views are spectacular. There are log piles either side of the bench for placing food and drinks. Property Owner
Dave July 2021

“The house is in a great location bedrooms large plenty of space.”

Garden not enclosed so be aware for your dog. Good size garden. Kitchen could do with a few upgrades. Garlic press, only 1 glass bowel, non stick trying pan but no non stick tools. Lots of cook books but not enough utensils to help cook any of them.

- Dave, July 2021

There is a garlic press, three glass bowls and a non stick frying pan in the kitchen, please ask if you cannot find things, we are only too happy to help. We have however since supplied an additional set of kitchen utensils and cutlery. Property Owner
Vicky June 2021

“We had a great week at the cottage, the rooms are a good size and kitchen well equipped, our children LOVED the garden with the tyre swing and kids house, there was a good selection of toys inside too.”

It was a good base for seeing different towns, everything was about 50m-1hr drive. We loved Plymouth, it has a good aquarium and great lighthouse, Tavistock is a pretty little town and only about 20mins also has a morrisons and Tesco. Kings Caves in Torquay was brilliant and our children loved it. Widemouth Bay has a good beach and then you can follow onto Bude. We visited a few pubs near the cottage too, the village castle Inn does good food, our favourite for food was the fox and hounds top of the road and the bears lake does a lovely Sunday lunch. Weve had a great stay thank you!

- Vicky, June 2021

Thank you for this lovely feedback. So glad you had a great holiday. Please come again. Property Owner
Katie April 2021

“My husband our little dog Buddy and I had a delightful week at Clearview.”

The Cottage was inviting, quirky , comfortable, warm with lots of hot water and charm . It felt like home from home . Waking up everyday to the sheep in the field whilst you ate your breakfast was amazing. This cottage is superbly located in the heart of Dartmoor, with the village pub less than a minutes walk away. Pip and Hugh were wonderful hosts and nothing was too much to ask for. We cannot wait to visit again.

- Katie, April 2021
Lee October 2020

- Martin, August 2020
Carole August 2020

“We felt the cottage was in an ideal location, great pub in walking distance, Lots of local walks to enjoy.”

The property was welcoming and very clean. If I had to criticise on one small point it would be having no dryer in the cottage or a washing line to dry clothes.

- Carole, August 2020

Thank you for your feedback, we are happy to hear that you enjoyed our cottage and area. In regards to the dryers, there is a clothes airer in the main bedroom cupboard and a rotary clothes line in the summerhouse. Property Owner

Gareth March 2020

“Great cottage in a great location.”

With friendly locals, great surroundings and a brilliant pub on your doorstep. Cottage was better than described and the owners were close by, very friendly and helpful. we spent a week their and the only negative was the weather, but that didn't ruin a great week

- Gareth, March 2020
Kevin February 2020

“The cottage is in a breathtaking location, with a decent pub two minutes walk from the cottage.”

Everything is accurately listed, and the cream tea left by the owners was really appreciated! The Dartmoor Inn at the top of the road on the main A386 is particularly recommended for great food and friendliest of welcomes. Overall an extremely comfortable cottage in the perfect location for exploring Dartmoor.

- Kevin, February 2020
Matt February 2020

“A hidden gem in devon.”

Loads to do and see, or just relax in front of the fire. We had a lovely time!

Stephen October 2019

“Spacious, quiet & well stocked cottage with great garden for family & relaxing { Devon weather permitting ;-)}.”

Friendly owners. Beautiful village.

- Stephen, October 2019
Geoffrey September 2019

“Large property with two lounges (one with a piano) and excellent facilities.”

Very friendly and helpful owners who lived just down the road. They also left scones, crisps, bread and a bottle of wine. Unfortunately the garden is not secure for dogs that might roam (like our Cavalier King Charles) so we had to buy a pet tether stake and cable. The location was ideal for visiting local market towns and, of course, Lydford Gorge. This was great value for money in our opinion.

- Geoffrey, September 2019
Andrew August 2019

“Really lovely cottage, comfortable and relaxing,great location and excellent welcome pack and card.”

No complaints at all.

- Andrew, August 2019
Stephen August 2019

“The whole experience was fantastic.”

The cottage was beautiful well equipped with all you need and more. The welcome pack was a wonderful surprise. The use of the garden and play things for children were great. We found the area quite overwhelming with the gorge, castle and pub within yards. A mile walk up the road to the farm shop. And 10 - 15 minutes drive from Tavistock where they have a selection of supermarkets and restaurants. Finally the owners Pip and Hugh were on hand if required and are lovely people.

- Stephen, August 2019
Wendy July 2019

Colin May 2019

The village road was very busy constant flow of traffic which was noisy also living room window had no blinds or curtains so people walking past would look in

- Sharon, April 2019

Thank you for your feedback. Traffic levels were higher than normal due to the Easter holidays and exceptionally good weather conditions. We do have curtains or blinds in all rooms, we take your comments on board regarding this though we are not sure that net curtains are necessary in this rural village setting. Property Owner
Karen April 2019

“This is a fantastic little cottage in a beautiful location and ideally situated for Lydford Gorge.”

We spent a week here and my two boys aged 10 and 6 and my daughter aged 11 were thoroughly tired out after visiting the Tor’s. We will hopefully be back one day.

- Karen, April 2019

Lots of care and attention to detail from the owners who were warm and friendly also. Set in a lovely quiet and peaceful location. With a local pub and farm shop nearby for food and supply's , this holiday had all bases covered. Our best Sykes holiday so far!

- Graham, March 2019
David March 2019

“Immaculately presented cottage in a lovely location.”

Scrummy pub within a 2 minute walk. The owners had furnished the property very well with some nice touches and were very friendly and helpful.

- David, March 2019
Linda March 2019

“Clearview cottage is an exceptionally beautifully cottage, and excellent value.”

We were greeted with a personal welcome note and fantastic welcome pack of wine, crisps, and a devon cream tea! The owners were on hand to help but never intrusive and certainly went the extra mile for us. It was wonderfully quiet and had some lovely walks very close by. You can actually walk to Lydford Gorge, which was worth the visit. Warm , cosy welcoming and very inviting. Highly recommended. Do drive to the little advertised forest trail at the other end of the village, (turn left at the war memorial and then straight on to the car park), the dog loved this and so did we.

- Linda, March 2019
Carole February 2019

“Cottage was even better than we expected.”

Very good.

- Carole, February 2019
Tina February 2019

“We really enjoyed our stay at Clearview from the lovely relaxing breakfasts in the sunny conservatory to the cosy nights enjoying the log burner or walking a minute down the road to the Castle Inn pub.”

Clearview is ideally situated for enjoying lots of lovely walks with the dogs some striaght from the door or a short drive in the car. We can't wait to go back, thank you Pip and Hugh for the welcome pack and all the other extras you left in the kitchen, very thoughtful.

- Tina, February 2019
