What our guests say about Sweeton Manor and its Cottages
All comments are taken directly from the guest books in the properties and from feedback forms left after a stay. They are used by kind consent of the person concerned. Fernhill and Moorbrook cottages have been open less than a year and as a consequence do not feature here as yet.

'We had a lovely time here at Splash Cottage. We have stayed in many cottages throughout Britain and this is just the best! Extremely well equipped, warm welcome and excellently located.

'If I could have imagined the perfect cottage for a weekend away from it all, exploring Devon, I wouldn't have gotten it quite a perfect as Splash Cottage. The only downside is having to go home! Everything we needed was here – the cottage itself is incredibly well equipped (there isn't anything I can think of that could be added), there are wonderful walks right here on the doorstep and some fabulous restaurants just a short drive away...Thank you for helping to make this a very special weekend, I'm sure we will be back!' – Justin, London

'What an amazing cottage and countryside! The Smithy is beautifully designed and equipped with the most modern appliances and wonderful furnishings making for a most enjoyable holiday. Your attention to detail was much appreciated. The cottage and garden exceeded our expectations. Dartmoor, with its streams, rivers, valleys and tors is truly unique, ideal for hiking and exploring. Coming from near Toronto, we found the driving a true adventure – especially along the narrow roads and lanes! It was all part of a wonderful vacation, and have wonderful photos and memories to share with family and friends.' – Jim, Canada
'Beautiful cottage in beautiful surroundings – hope very much to return soon. Thanks to all for a great Easter break.' – Vicky, London
'Thank you so much for preparing such a lovely and well equipped cottage. We had a brilliant stay and despite the damp weather we were cosy, warm, and very happy in our cottage. The walks were absolutely marvellous with stunning views and rushing streams. The pony trekking in the moor inspired us even though we were drenched through! And we had a lovely sail on the Dart in Dittisham – perfect in every way, even the weather! Your thoughtful preparation of the cottage really has made our stay comfortable – every detail is carefully considered...so very nice for our little family – we will return!' – Vicci, London

'Wonderful cottage, equipped with just about everything you could possibly think of! The perfect setting for a peaceful and relaxing holiday. Quaint villages close by serving the obligatory 'cream teas'. Walks on the door step. We could not have asked for more.' – Bev, Sheffield
