Reviews
If it’s complete rest and relaxation Barn Shelley Lodge in Copplestone fits the bill exactly. We have just returned from 2 weeks there and it is the most beautiful setting for a stunning lodge. It has everything you may need, a fantastic well equipped kitchen, 2 extremely comfortable sofas, beds that are sumptuous, an ensuite shower room with a fantastic shower that was the best way to start a day, plus a bathroom with shower over bath. The views were wonderful from the front porch which you can sit on and admire the surroundings and watch the “neighbours” (sheep). You are within fairly easy reach of several things to do, RHS Rosemoor, Powderham Castle, Tiverton for a bit of retail therapy, Bow garden centre for a very yummy Sunday lunch, Darlington Crystal and Dartmoor with the ponies. The owners were very friendly and the welcome pack was much appreciated. We returned home totally refreshed and have already decided that we will definitely be booking again for next year.
I would love keep this amazing lodge as my personal secret but that would not be fair. It was just perfect. A fabulous standard and I loved the fact that it felt like you were totally in your own world surrounded by countryside.
