From the owner

Drovers' Cottage is a cosy, 2 bedroom cottage within striking distance of Dartmoor National Park and 5 minutes from the bustling town of Tavistock.

Located at the bottom of a lane, the cottage is nestled in a beautiful valley and is the perfect rural retreat, ideally located to offer you a range of activities nearby. Within 5 minutes drive is the renowned Tamar Trails with its miles of cycling and walking paths set in stunning countryside. The cottage is ideally placed for visiting both the North and South coasts of Devon and Cornwall with some outstanding beaches within 45 minutes drive.

If it's peace and tranquillity you seek, Drovers' Cottage offers this in abundance. Enjoy the beauty of the secluded valley from the private patio area. The patio is next to the well equipped galley kitchen, making it the perfect area for al fresco dining. On chilly evenings you can retreat back into the cottage and enjoy the cosy wood burner in the well appointed lounge.
