We had such a wonderful stay at Rafters Lodge and only wish we had booked for longer.
We travelled with our two dogs, one is very anxious, so finding somewhere peaceful and secure is really important to us. This place was absolutely perfect. The location is incredibly quiet (just the sound of sheep!!) and the enclosed garden meant the dogs could relax safely, which made a huge difference for us.
One of the highlights was being able to walk straight from the lodge through beautiful countryside to the nearby beaches. It made our days of exploring so easy and enjoyable. After long walks along the coast and through the fields, coming back to the lodge and soaking in the hot tub was exactly what we needed.
There are also some fantastic local pubs within easy reach and the lodge is just a short drive from other lovely Devon towns.
Overall it was the perfect mix of peaceful countryside, great walking, and cosy comfort. We left feeling completely relaxed and would absolutely love to come back again — next time for a longer stay!
