Horry Mill

We had a wonderful holiday at Horry Mill. The cottage is lovely and the location even better. There is a large private garden surrounded by wooded slopes and wild flowers with chickens and ducks happily pottering around nearby. Sonia and Simon are very generous hosts and nothing is too much trouble for them. Wonderful walks straight from the house but if you want to go further afield there is ample opportunity for all that Dartmoor has to offer. Perfect peace and relaxation.

We had a fantastic family holiday at Horry Mill. The setting is utterly peaceful and beautiful. There are walks from the door and private gardens and woodlands to explore. We had lots of adventures on Dartmoor then came back to wander round the meadow or to drink wine by the fire or - my favourite place - in the vine filled summer house. Perhaps the best thing about Horry Mill are the kind and generous hosts. Our daughters were allowed to collect eggs every day, we found flowers, chocolates and a cream tea waiting for us and there are lots of logs for the fire. We felt very lucky to stay here.

Horry Mill is a very special place to visit. Superb location in a quiet mid-Devon valley, nothing but birdsong and the occasional horse and rider walking past the kitchen disturbs the peace and quiet. Sonia and Simon are perfect hosts, always there if you need them but leave you to your space. Great walks from the door, or spend a sunny day in the garden with a good book. We did both.

It is hard to find the words to describe just what a beautiful place Horry Mill is. This well equipped cottage is cosy, spacious and full of character with lovely views from every window. It’s peaceful setting, in a huge flower-filled garden on the edge of woodland is just stunning, we enjoyed varied walks from the door, and spent hours watching the amazing array of wild birds and other wildlife which visited daily. Sonia and Simon are a really lovely couple who made us feel so welcome, this was our first visit and we are looking forward to returning in October.

Wonderful stay at Horry Mill. There was absolutely everything in the cottage that you could want - cream tea when we arrived, flowers, chocolates and deliveries of eggs. The cottage was warm and comfortable with a wonderful log fire, and full of books, puzzles etc. It was such a lovely place that you could easily not leave the cottage and surrounding area for your whole stay. Maggie, our Jack Russell was equally at home and enjoyed the numerous walks through the woods. Our thanks to Sonia and Simon for their hospitality. We can't wait to return.
