Ref: 4783 / Widecombe in the Moor
Room With A View
Sometimes, you just need to escape from it all and find that special place.
Positioned at the foot of Haytor, with breathtaking panoramic views of Dartmoor National Park, Room With A View is just such a place. This off-grid cabin nestled in a quiet corner of the owners' working farm has a wild beauty and calming tranquility and is a million miles from the mania of modern-day living, providing the perfect tonic from life's stresses and strains.
The cabin is a comfortable and simple subsistence with just the right amount of creature comforts; a warming wood-burning stove, hot shower and comfy bed. The kitchen provides gas cooking with a grill, and a fridge with ice box, however, as the property is off-grid, there's no microwave or toaster. Bottled water for drinking is provided.
Outside, relax on the deck with a glass of wine, taking in the spellbinding beauty you can only find on Dartmoor and listen to the embers crackle on dark nights with the warmth of the fire-pit. The enclosed garden is the perfect place to let your dog off the lead or simply sit back and enjoy the spectacular views.

Good or bad, we publish all the reviews left by the guests who have stayed at this property.
Mrs Ball
Really super property . Perfect setting , great location and we wanted for nothing . Loved the firepit and BBQ and our dog enjoyed the safe garden . It was a very comfortable and easy place to settle into . A good area to walk straight from the door and leave the car at base .
Mrs Proot
A room with a view is perfect for those who seek peace and quiet in a dramatic decor. The cabin is well-equipped and the location is near so many beautiful places.
Mrs Peters
A wonderful place to be of grid, with ample queit, and stunning scenery. Great location with plenty of dog friendly day trips, and activities to be busy every day, or to sit and relax in the garden. Thank you for sharing your little piece of calm.
Ms Lowthrop
A gorgeous cabin with lots of little added details that made it a really special place to stay. We were lucky with excellent weather too.
Mrs Marchant
Absolutely loved our stay here. Perfect for us and our dogs who loved running around the spacious enclosed garden. Beautiful surroundings to unwind and relax. Didn’t want to leave, would definitely return.
Mrs Fountain
best place ever will be going again
Mr Connolly
Beautiful settings and a thoroughly peaceful experience. Arriving and leaving the cottage was no fuss and we were left to our own devices. Would recommend to anyone looking for slow paced and relaxing time. A perfect space to bring your canine companion as the walled garden is very spacious and secure. Will be back!
mr WYATT
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Cabin was beautiful and was perfect for our dog with the enclosed garden. Lots of attention to detail. Our only criticisms is that the bed is rather small and for my over 6ft husband he did not have a good nights sleep and the other is that the kitchen window could do with a blind.
Mr Longdon
Excellent location for the tors.
Miss Alston
Beautiful location and definitely a room with a view! So amazing to be off grid in the heart of Dartmoor National Park in the most beautiful of settings. It was amazing to be in this little hut in the middle of nature, but be rest assured the cottage has everything you could need! We celebrated our anniversary here and it was the perfect location. Our puppy loved running around the beautiful enclosed garden, and we loved the BBQs round the fire pit and drinking wine on the decking below the stars. It is in such a great location with so much available in a short drive, or even a walk! The hosts were great and made us feel so welcome. They have great tips for walks, pubs and shops nearby which was super handy! We will definitely be back!
Mrs Harris
We had a wonderful weekend and just loved the large beautifully kept enclosed garden which allowed our dogs to run free for the entire weekend. The cabin was superb and much nicer than we expected. The photos don’t do it justice. The garden got the sun all day and the fire pit was perfect for when the sun went down. We will be returning for sure.
Ms Shaw
The property is wonderful. A great place to escape to, walk from and generally chill. The owners are available if anything is required and the property is very well equipped for all of your needs. Will definitely visit again , thank you .
Mrs Fields
Fantastic cabin with amazing views of Haytor. The cabin is suitable for all weathers - we had a lovely BBQ in the garden on our first night and later when temperatures dropped we used the wood burner inside the cabin on the same weekend! The cabin is very well equipped and we loved the welcome gifts for us and our pet dog from the owners which was very kind. Lots of great walks on the doorstep and short drives to local villages/towns which makes it a great location for exploring Dartmoor. Would very much recommend as a great dog friendly stay in this area.
Mr Trenam
Beautiful little cabin; peaceful and quiet; stunning surroundings.
Mrs Preskett
Beautiful little cabin, cosy and comfortable. The owners are really friendly, the complimentary gifts for me and my dog were a lovely touch. The views from the cabin are fabulous. The night sky is amazing..no light pollution. I saw the International Space Station every evening. The enclosed garden is ideal for the dog. We were blessed with beautiful weather so did lots of walking. We will return.
Mrs Fox
We loved our stay at Room with a View, it certainly was that. It's a million pound view from all sides. Walking straight out on to the moors was heavenly and having a technology detox was very much needed as there is no signal at the property with limited wi-fi. That was a highlight for us. Our hosts were exceptionally kind and generous it was a treat to properly get away.
