Stays / Short breaks

Short breaks

Two and three night stays for guests who only need a few days away.

Not every trip needs a full week, so a good number of our cottages take bookings for two or three nights, particularly outside the main summer months. This suits couples wanting a quiet weekend by the coast or friends meeting up for a few days on Dartmoor.

Short breaks usually run from Friday to Monday or Monday to Thursday, with change over times kept flexible where the cottage diary allows. We will always tell you plainly if a property is only available for full weeks during busy periods.

Because turnaround is quicker on a short break, we ask guests to strip beds before leaving and put used towels in the basket provided. It keeps costs down and means we can offer these shorter stays at a fair price.

Reviews

What our customers say

★★★★★

We stayed at The Old Barn for a family gathering and it suited everyone perfectly, with plenty of space and a garden the children could run about in. The welcome pack and local tips saved us a lot of guesswork on our first evening.

Harbour View was exactly as described, a proper Dartmouth cottage with the view from the bedroom that we had hoped for. The team let us know about a change in access to the car park before we arrived, which we appreciated.

David PGuest, Dartmouth stay
★★★★★

We took our dog to the Bovey Tracey cottage and everything about it had clearly been thought through for pets, from the garden to the walks nearby. Booking and check in were both straightforward.
