Gitcombe have a really great concept which they have implemented extremely well. The location is truly idyllic and well located for many of Devon's highlights. The cottages are chocolate box perfect, finished to an extremely high standard and very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. We made good use of the on-site facilties which are also of a... More

No matter what the weather there is always something to do, be this swimming, tennis, basket pool or pop to Dartmouth for a coffee. We have been back to Gitcombe twice and love it, the accommodateion is always clean and tidy. With having two young children this is idea as they are miles away from any roads and have acres... More

Was the best weather ever - literally not a cloud all week. Lovely stay, house as previously worked very well for a family of 5. Wouldn't want to push many more people as the bedroom accommodation is quite tight....but it worked very well for us. Facilities excellent and quite empty when we were there. Owners charming. Plenty to do in... More

Beautiful surroundings with excellent facilities. The cottage we stayed in (Burrator) was very nice but felt a bit cramped and badly lacked somewhere to dry clothes ( a week's stay in the rain and mud creates a lot of washing and there was no where sufficient to dry it all). The accomodation downstairs was great 3 good sized bedrooms and... More

We stayed at the Hayloft and had a wonderful few days with a 3 month old son. It was our first break away and it all went swimmingly. The owners were lovely, the picture-postcard setting was unrivalled and the Hayloft was beautiful. The little man had his first swim and we took him to the local pub, so it's fair... More

Very well appointed cottages! Thanks for a perfect stay in such beautiful surrounds. Loved the hot tub in February overlooking Dartmoor and the kids really enjoyed the indoor pool, perfect temperature. The log burner in the cottage was a real treat and made the stay really special.

We stayed in the Garden House for a long weekend and it worked really well for two couples and two toddlers. The accommodation was lovely with modern decor and mod cons and a beautiful vase of flowers on arrival. The pool and soft play area were great for the boys and it was in the most beautiful area. We really... More

We have stayed at Gitcombe twice now with our three year old toddler and it is the perfect place for families with young children. The standard of accomodation is high which makes it feel like home away from home and the facilities make it extra special. The indoor pool and soft play area were essential for us as it rained...

Great for young families we stayed in the Coach House which was very nice, would have given it five stars if the beds were a slightly more comfortable (maybe time for some new mattresses?) heaven forbid you dont follow the directions there! (there are two maltsters arms on the way, make sure you get the right one!)
