  We had a wonderful 2-night stay at The Kiln, Hennock, and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The Kiln is a beautiful historic building that has been thoughtfully transformed to provide all the modern facilities and comforts you could wish for, while still retaining its unique character and charm. The directions provided in the welcome pack were very clear and helpful, making it easy for us to find the property without any difficulty. Our host, Heather, was lovely, friendly and welcoming, which made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The property has a beautiful garden filled with colourful flowers, creating such a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. Everything we needed was available inside the house, and the kitchen and bathrooms were modern, clean and very well equipped. One of the highlights of our stay was the skylight in one of the bedrooms. Being able to lie in bed and look up at the stars at night was a truly wonderful and memorable experience. ✨🌌 Overall, it was a fantastic stay in a unique property that perfectly combines historic charm with modern comfort. We had a lovely time and would highly recommend The Kiln to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable getaway. We would definitely love to return!

  We enjoyed the proximity of Dartmoor National Forest!

  Great location! We stayed there for the weekend to visit a local friend and hike in Dartmoor National Forest. We had a wonderful visit with our friend— and really appreciated the proximity of this rental property. It’s NOT a 3 bedroom cottage; it’s a 3 bedroom unit like a flat or apartment within a larger house that has multiple units. This one was somewhat underground in parts of the house. The grounds and gardens are beautiful. There’s a lovely front garden with a clothesline, which we used to hang out our wet laundry. The host is lovely and welcoming. The property is dog-friendly.

  First, we arrived and were disappointed that we had not rented the cottage to ourselves— there were multiple units within a larger house. We arrived later than we expected and there were ants in the cupboards and the host sprayed poison all onto the glasses and dishes (so that meant we could not use any of them.) I was shocked. It wasn’t what I expected based on the photos and the description. I thought we had a private patio (it was a shared patio). The interior floor sloped so dramatically that I fell down twice inside the apartment. At the time I fell, I was walking through the hallway. Sober. The slanted floor also made it challenging to take a bath (the water sloshed to one side), and we didn’t sleep well at all. Poor mattresses.
