The Challoners

The accommodation is luxurious and cosy. Beautiful location and fantastic hosts.
Only a very basic 2 hotplates and small grill / oven available in the kitchen. However, there was a microwave and fantastic local pub for food. Didn't really plan to do any cooking anyway!

Amazing place. Perfect for what we were looking for. Quiet and intimate. Great enclosed garden for the dogs. Excellent communication from the owner. We found the dog walking book within the cottage really useful. Lots of useful information within the cottage. Facilities were everything we needed. The interior was lovely. Modern and warm eg underfloor heating, but still had the feeling of being in the countryside with the decor.

We loved Challoners and felt very cared for and welcome there. It was very suitable for our dogs with easy walking access and beautiful countryside. The huts were well equipped and warm and comfortable. The bedroom and roll tap bath were fabulous and the decor was a real treat with little tasteful touches which were interesting, fun and lovely to look at. The garden was enclosed and great for our dogs to run around in.We were asked to not let the dogs in the bedroom which was very understandable... The weather was wet and we still had a great time which says a lot about our stay...

We booked the lovely Challoners as a weekend away to celebrate our wedding anniversary and it did not disappoint! The owner Jim was there to greet us and show us around and was always on the end of the phone to help with any issues. The place itself was a delight, all enclosed for privacy, lovely country gardens and the shepherds huts were rustic, luxurious and beautifully decorated. Lovely outside area with seating, a firepit and bbq. Just the place to escape to and recharge your batteries.

This is a little gem of tranquility. The property is in excellent condition and very welcoming. The owners provide the small touches, such a bottle of fizz on arrival and breakfast croissants for the first morning that make it special. A wonderful weekend away thank you

Absolutely loved our stay at The Challoners. Quirky accommodation in the loveliest of settings with beautiful walks on the doorstep. The attention to detail was second to none from the blackberry liquor to the fluffy thick bathrobes and crocs to aid transition from one cabin to the other. Our dog, Lola, thoroughly enjoyed the use of the fully enclosed garden. The lack of wifi and no TV was provided a fantastic opportunity to leave it all behind, for us this meant the kids too! I have recommended this place to all my friends!

A lovely, private and calm space. The quality of the cabins is excellent, as is the decor. Really homely and inviting. The garden is beautiful, wild flowers and carefully designed beds, fruit trees and lots of lawn space (for dogs etc). The atmosphere doesn't come across in the photos and the garden has matured...so a really pleasant surprise. But mainly the greeting from Jim was the thing that set the tone, really made us feel at home and welcome. Cannot recommend highly enough. Have stayed at many cottages/glamping/huts etc, this is one of the best and will be returning in the future.

Loved it, a little bit different from renting a cottage. The self catering facilities are quite basic, but the place is a lot of fun.

Absolutely lovely and peaceful, Jim and Jordan were so nice and the place was perfect, so quiet except birdsong in morning and the ducks which was lovely to hear

I booked the Challoners for a quiet retreat away from normal life for my partner and our dog. For 2 nights over the Easter break, we enjoyed the most incredible sunshine in the garden of the Challoners and relaxed in the well decorated and furnished lounge, bedroom and bathroom! We arrived to the most thoughtful homemade croissants, fresh orange juice, eggs and a bottle of prosecco on ice! The owners were very accommodating and loved our excitable, bouncy dog! We were very weary as our dog is an escape artist (a Beagle) but the garden is fully enclosed and no room for escape. The area is full of walks, we did pass some friendly pubs but we were so in love with the Challoners we spent our evenings chilling, playing games and listening to the radio! We would not hesitate to recommend this gorgeous unspoiled accommodation and cannot wait for our next stay :)
