We booked Underbow cottage for our family trip. We had 6 nights holiday in Devon on April and we looked for the perfect house for a long time from different rental pages until we found Underbow Cottage. It had everything we needed, 3 bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, good location and it looked so British as it can look! We came from Finland.
House was much better than in pictures! At the first morning when I was brushing my teeth at the 3th floor bathroom and looked at the moors, I was thinking that I could wake up in this house every morning for the rest of my life! Living room was spacious ans cozy, kitchen had everything we needed. Beds were superb! Situation in the center of the quiet Moretonhampstead was great, only 1 minute walk to Co-op and short ride to the moors. Moretonhampstead had also a couple of pubs to choose from. Everything is so small and cute!
Highly recommend!

My family consisting of six adults and a few four legged friends stayed in this beautiful cottage recently. The location boasts scenic village life with little home comforts. A couple of shops including a Co-Op, a butchers, some drinking holes and cafes. Not so remote you are isolated, but tucked away if you wish to be so.
The cottage is off of the main road via a private driveway. Parking for three cars is available, additional parking available via a small pay and display car park close by. Free out of season.
The cottage is spacious and homely, beautiful decorated with high end fixtures and fittings.
The log burner adds to the cosiness, even though the weather was poor, we had plenty to do inside . Games cupboard with a variety of board games. Books for all ages. They have really catered for all eventualities.
Dogs were welcomed as long as they brought respectful owners.
The beds were really comfy as one of the older guests commented. The three rooms have en-suit and are private so different couples or families could share the cottage. My children are three and four, we test drove the cottage and there were no worrying areas, a little enclosed garden, would make a great BBQ area, with somewhere for the children to play.
Can't wait to try this out in the summer months.
Located in an ideal position on Dartmoor, for exploring yet close enough to local towns and the coast for a great variety of adventures.
This really does boast it all. Well done Underbow Cottage, we will see you soon when the family return in the summer.
What a charming cottage! Well appointed and nicely decorated. An upmarket experience. Very centrally located, a 5min walk to the town centre. The Coop open until late and delightful shops (grocer, tea room and news agent). The cream teas at the local gastropub are worth a visit. The house comfortably sleeps 6, each room pleasant, with own bathroom. The attic room has lovely views over the moors. Highly recommend this house and the village of Moretonhampstead.

A excellent holiday cottage, with ample room for 2 dogs and 6 people. Sun trap of a garden out the back and the luxury of 3 en suite bedrooms (with power showers) and plenty of room to move around. Idyllic location, close to shops, pubs and access to Dartmoor and the Devon coasts. Easy to find and the added bonus of being in a secluded part of the village- like no one else is there. Fully equipped, ample parking and friendly locals. We had an excellent time, great dog walking and cake eating!

Exceptional cottage with high quality fixtures & fittings and friendly & efficient agent. It is set on 3 levels, all bathrooms en suite (one bath, two showers). The style is a clean country look, large sofas, wood burner, simple elegant decorations. The garden is on the first floor (house is set into an incline). A large gas oven/cooker makes preparing large meals a pleasure. Although TVs are in every room, they are discreet. Would recommend for families looking for quiet/upmarket experience. Not suitable for persons with mobility issues as stairs are steep and narrow
