About this property

Spacious House set in the heart of Chagford, Dartmoor

Saddlers House is a very special place right in the middle of Chagford. Cosy and private but right in the main area. Everything you need for a perfect break including our welcome pack consisting of tea, coffee, milk, sugar, cereals and a bottle of wine for you. We are on hand either in person or by telephone to assist you with any questions or problems you may have.

Chagford is not known as The Jewel in The Crown of Dartmoor for nothing. A vibrant Moorland town with four pubs, coffee and cafe's, a range of small unique shops. Centrally located to visiting many of Dartmoor’s beautiful sights including the amazing Moors with its wild ponies, moorland sheep and cattle. Also, within easy reach of the beautiful Castle Drogo and the historic village of Widecombe on The Moor. Only 30 minutes drive from Exeter city.

A perfect location for hiking, walking, hill climbing. A huge variation of walks from beautiful river strolls to inspiring Tor climbs with the most amazing views to be had once you get to the top.

Easy driving distance to many other beauty spots, we have a selection of books and maps in the house to help you with your choices.

Lovely house in the very centre of Chagford. It is tucked away behind the main street with a small courtyard garden. Nicely decorated, spotlessly clean and well fitted out kitchen, perfect for our family.

Excellent bolt hole in Chagford

The property is well equipped with kitchen utensils, games, towels, cleaning stuff. It is just behind the square so you are within a five minute walk of everything in Chagford. Visit to Castle Drogo and walk down to Fingle Bridge is not to be missed. Would return someday.

Perfect 3 night break

We booked our 3 night stay with ease and we picked up the key from Graham's hotel. He walked us round to the property and showed us around. It was absolutely spot on for a family get away and had everything we needed. It was like a home from home and our children loved their bedrooms. The welcome pack was much appreciated, especially the bottle of wine! Everything was very clean and we couldn't believe how spacious it was. The village is lovely and the park and local pool were great for the children. We didn't want to leave and wished we could have stayed longer. We will definitely stay again and the property & host were perfect.

Very spacious cottage in the centre of Chagford

Nicely decorated cosy cottage. We found it well suited for our stay. As previous people said we did not use downstairs or little garden as weather did not permit and upstairs was sufficient for our needs. Two things 1. a blackout curtain needed in 2nd bedroom I didnt mind the pub noise but they forgot to turn out the garden lights one night & 2. the beds 2/4 were too soft for me - hence the 4*. A proper mattress topper would go a long way not a piece of foam. Would I go again, yes, if they fixed the above.

Sehr gute geräumige Ferienwohnung für Ausflüge ins Dartmoor

Hervorragende Betreuung im Rahmen der Vermietung durch Graham und seine Familie Die Ferienwohnung entspricht genau der Beschreibung und den Fotos. Wir haben zweimal sehr gut im hauseigenen Pub zu Abend gegessen. Insgesamt haben wir uns rundherum wohl gefühlt, die Ferienwohnung ist sehr zu empfehlen.

Fabulous cottage in the heart of a wonderful small town

Very pleased at the size of this lovely cottage, ample space for us all and having more than one living area was a real bonus. Comfy beds, great pillows. Well equipped kitchen. Chagford has 4 pubs/restaurants so plenty of choice to eat out and some lovely local shops. Do not overlook the hardware store, a tardis of interesting things. Mary and Graham the owners of the cottage were lovely and helpful with good pre arrival communication. A perfect place for a family meet up.

Perfect place for us...

We were pleasantly surprised that most rooms were upstairs; 3 down and 7 up! Spacious house and very central. Apart from hiding the glassware downstairs for safety (plenty of cupboard space) the children had great fun playing...especially softball sprouts in the long hall above. Great holiday and thank you so much from all of us.

Clean, homely & a great location for walking in Dartmoor.

Very spacious and tidy house for a family of four. It is also a great location for exploring Dartmoor National Park. It was cosy and nice to come back to a fully kitted out house after a hard day of walking in the moors. The house is well positioned within the village to all the necessary amenities and all 4 village pubs! Check in and check out was painless. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
