Every spring we stay with friends in Gitcombe Retreat and every year before we leave we book for the following year, so you can see we like it here. It is a beautiful modern house set in a completely tranquil location with views to distant Dartmoor, a great pool and tennis court too. There are many great walks with spring flowers adorning the roadsides, good pubs and some Michelin rated restaurants - try Adria in Dartmouth and Circa in Totnes. The tasting menus in both were excellent value. This year we had a fantastic free garden tour at the NT Coleton Fishacre.
We had a fantastic stay using 3 of the properties. We enjoyed all the facilities and the space the Main house provided meant we could congregate for our celebrations. We even had a multi generation tennis tournament to complete our stay. The grounds and the properties were spotless and extremely well kept. the Jacuzzi was a lovely and warm for afternoon bubbles! Thank you Peter, Emma and Rodney we have made some wonderful memories at Gitcombe!

We had the best stay for our little family, our boys loved the pool, tennis, play park and indoor play area. My 4 year old didn’t want to leave and 9 month old was so happy because he could move around and play as well. We were able to relax and it helped we chose a week where the weather was perfect. The views from everywhere are absolutely stunning and the cottages, equipment and grounds are so well maintained. The cottages are very spacious, modern and pristine, top of the range appliances and equipment, literally had everything we needed for our family. Having a full fridge/freezer (Americ...more
Superb family holiday - beautiful setting, high quality accommodation and so many resources on site for all ages to enjoy. Not cheap but well worth it.
We had two admin issues. The first we could not make payment of the balance on the website, the error reported was a system error. It did take 3 days before the web site worked correctly. The other issue, a sent sms message incorrectly allocated us to another cottage. Otherwise the property was good and clean and location excellent. I would recommend this to friends and family and would consider a return in the future.
We greatly enjoyed our stay in this peaceful location. The cottage was well equipped, warm and comfortable.
We had a lovely stay at Gitcombe. The place was spotless and equipped with everything we needed. The bed was super comfortable as was the sofa. We really enjoyed making the most of the pools and hot tub, especially early in the morning. The grounds of Gitcombe are beautiful, the landscape is stunning and well looked after, we got to see a few rabbits running around early in the morning.
