    Everything was perfect.

    There wasnt anything to not like about it, the hosts are amazing, there isnt anything they couldnt help you with and nothing was too much trouble, the land is beautiful, anyone staying is very lucky to be able to have a couple of nights to share this location and experience life in the middle of nowhere. There is a village pub with great food just a little drive down the road and Tavistock is a short 15 min drive away if you want cafes or supermarkets. The annexe is perfect has everything you need, the bed is very comfortable, this has been decorated and built with love, will definately be returning.

    There wasn't anything I didn't like.

    It was a superb place for 1 or 2 people who are looking for peace and tranquility. It had everything you would need for a relaxing night's sleep breakfast light lunch/tea. The perfect hosts.

    All was good.

    Viv our host was very welcoming and friendly. The annexe was beautiful with everything in it that was needed. The bed was really comfy. Tea, coffee and milk were there for a much needed cuppa after our 11/12hr journey from Galway. Viv was only a door away if we needed anything. The accommodation itself is in a beautiful secluded area, but also from here you had access to all other amenities with a short drive. Plenty to see and do. I would reccommend the leat to anyone as we really enjoyed it and would book it again in a heartbeat.

    Our stay was amazing, our hosts were so tentative and welcoming but they still left us to our own space. The annex was stunning and the added Shepherd’s Hut was wonderful. Amazing value for money, fab hosts. Would absolutely recommend!!

    There is nothing not to like when you stay in the beautifully converted Leat at the Old Mill.

    Stunning setting in the 'back of beyond', and yet only 4 miles from Tavistock town.

    There isn't really anything I didnt like. If I am being really picky, I would say include an extra pillow on the bed.

    Our host Viv met us on arrival and gave us a tour of facilities. Very friendly. We loved the quiet location but it was still conveniently located for our visits of the surrounding areas and is only 50 mins away from the Eden project. We loved the style of the accommodation and everything was well appointed. We had two nights of great sleep.

    Viv the host was amazing. Always there to help with anything that we needed. He was extremely accommodating and flexible to our late arrival time as well. The property itself is beautiful, modern and cosy with all the essentials you need. It really is a blissful and quiet cabin to stay in. We also had coffee, tea and milk in the kitchen which was greatly appreciated.

    There was nothing not to like!

    The property is accessed down a single track road, which does make you think you’re lost, but it’s worth it! Lovely property, small but with everything you need, including its own private shepherds hut to enjoy. Spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable, well equipped. Viv is an excellent host, very welcoming and informative about the local area. Highly recommend The Leat at the Old Mill.
