The house is located just a 10 minute drive from Exeter City Centre on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park in the village of Christow. No matter which direction you turn you can visit the City, the open Moors or the shores of Devon within a short drive.
The village of Christow is set in the beautiful Teign Valley which has the river of the same name cutting through it carrying the water from the moorlands beyond. On our door step we have many walks and attractions for all tastes. The village is blessed with 2 pubs and there are another 4 within a short walk or drive. We have a village store, post office and the house is opposite the Saxon church of St James.

There are numerous activities for everybody in the local area. Walk to the top of Haytor's Rock, bike ride at Haldon Forrest, have lunch at the 15th Century Artichoke Inn, see England's highest waterfall at Cononteign Estate, visit the wonderful Miniature Pony Centre, have a mad family day at Devon's Crealy Park, walk the dog at Dunsford Bridge, see the amazing Exeter Cathedral and fine dine at Michael Caine's Restaurant overlooking the green or drink & eat at one of the numerous amazing Dartmoor pubs. We could go on and on but there really is something for everyone as you would expect from the best holiday location in the world!

“Peace, relaxation and luxury.” A 7 night stay in this wonderful house was not long enough! Applegarth is very well equipped, tastefully decorated and extremely spacious. Even with 12 adults there was room for everyone - we particularly liked the huge dining table. Great views too, the quaint church opposite and the hills beyond. The outside area was larger than expected and we were lucky enough to get some sunshine and take advantage of it! The house is in a great location both for exploring Dartmoor and the spectacular coastline. Christow village is charming and has a lovely traditional pub, The Artichoke Inn, where we were always given a warm welcome and a hearty meal - not to mention sampling the fine beers and wines! Would do it all again!

“Outstanding house which was very comfortable and very homely.” Lovely location, very comfortable and homely. The landlord of the local pub was very welcoming and friendly. We had a large family gathering for christmas and the property was ideal. The only problem is the lack of mobile phone signal but for me that was a god send.

“Be careful you don[--]t get scammed” We stayed at Applegarth last weekend and had a nice stay. However, the whole experience has been tainted by the owner accusing us of having extra people stay when we kept to the maximum capacity of 12. The owner has basically called me a liar and has kept our £250 deposit! This has caused a lot of stress and ruined what was an enjoyable weekend. Response: This person broke our clear T&C's & then some as stated on our booking form details, as follows: 1) Failed to declare the names of all people actually staying having changed occupants without informing us for insurance liability. 2) Had up to 16 people in the house despite booking 12 on 1 night at least (unauthorised occupants even signed the visitors book proving this). 3) Left the kitchen & dining area full of washing up and all cooking items in the cupboards put back soiled & greasy incurring 2.5hrs extra changeover time. 4) Put cut glass in the dishwasher which subsequently broke. 5) As a result of the above had 6 cars for 2 days on the driveway despite booking 4. 6) By all accounts the occassion was a hen party from the items and evidence left on departure which is not a problem however they denied this and tried to give the impression it was not, for some reason? 6) Agreed a fair settlement of the deposit with me to return £75 to close the matter and then posted this review anyway! We run a lovely house & a professional business within fair straight forward rules to make our guest experiences the best they can be safe in the knowledge they are covered and protected. 99% of the time the whole experience is fantastic for all but now and again :-)

“Fantastic Property Great Location” A beautiful well equipt (inside and out) property in a fantastic village location which exceeded all our expectations. A very welcoming local pub within walking distance which served great food at a very reasonable price and a 5% discount!!! We enjoyed our stay so much that we have all intentions of returning again sooner rather than later. Would highly recomend this rental property. Tips. No mobile phone signal. There is Wifi within the property but get instructions on how to connect prior to your arrival

“Fab house!” Had a fab week away at this place to celebrate a 40th and 60th birthday with family and friends.
