Amazing Stay

We had a wonderful stay on Dartmoor. It was blissfully quiet and the views and walks on your doorstep were stunning. The property was just as described and provided everything we required. We wanted to get away from the normal busy life for a week of rest along with being with nature and the outdoors. I thoroughly recommend staying here and we will definitely like to return for another holiday.

Wonderful retreat

Combestone Farm was a wonderful retreat in an excellently furnished home. We were very warmly welcomed by Annabelle who checked in with us on several occasions too ensure we had all we needed. The farm house has a very warm, calm and homely feel with all the furnishings and utensils needed. The location is superb and provides security and privacy for a really restful holiday in a beautiful location. Definitely want to stay there again and for longer.

Perfect location in the Dartmoor

We stayed on the Combestone Farm for five days and it was a glorious experience. The location is ideal for exploring Dartmoor’s unique landscape, whether you want to go for long hikes or short strolls with children. We began multiple hikes starting directly from the farm. Annabelle was very helpful to us in planning our hikes and she provided helpful insights and recommendations based on our requirements. She is the most wonderful of hosts. We were immediately made to feel a part of her family and Humbug (her dog) is very friendly and just as welcoming. Our kids instantly fell in love with her. Combestone Farm is the place to go to authentically experience Dartmoor inside and out, which is so worth it! A big thank you to Annabelle. We miss you already!

A secret hideaway

If you want a place to check out from everything, then this may be perfect for you. We had a wonderful week right in the middle of the moor. Take your walking shoes, waterproof top and trousers - leave your phone at home and disappear into the beauty of the area. This is the farmhouse that time forgot - it is magic.

One of the most beautiful locations on Dartmoor

Beautiful location. Stunning walks and access to a private stretch of the River Dart contribute to the delights of Combestone Farm. This farm will really appeal to people wanting to get away from it all. It's comfortable and while not super modern it just adds to the charm. Annabelle is a wonderful host and everyone at Combestone was really helpful with our booking. Thank you.

Restful time away from homeschooling with time for play and fun. Outside adventures and time away from screens. Fabulous all round, can’t wait to return.

Cosy and very well equipped farmhouse. Perfect location for walking. A shame that the river Dart was in full flood during our week so we couldn’t walk across the stepping stones. Fab walking none the less. And a very relaxing week despite the weather!

Wunderbar!

Wir haben sehr schöne Tage auf der Farm verbracht. Das Haus ist sehr ruhig und gemütlich; die Umgebung lädt zum Wandern ein. Wir waren von der Umgebung und vom Haus mehr als begeistert! Bei unserer Ankunft warteten Willkommensgeschenke aus der Region auf uns und somit fühlten wir uns von Anfang an sehr willkommen. Das Dartmoor selbst bietet für jeden etwas: Kletterfelsen, Wildpferde, kleine Städtchen, Wanderwege, etc.

Fantastic week away

We had a great holiday. The property is well equipped and has all you need for your break and very comfortable. The owners are very helpful, and the National Park and surroundings are just amazing. Completely secluded, it is just what my partner and I needed, lots of walking, swimming and exploring. We did not want to leave.
