Dart View Hideout

Absolutely fabulous.

Lovely hosts and really comfortable property. Would return in a heartbeat.

This is our second stay at the hideout and it was as fantastic as the first.

The cabin has everything we needed in a great location with beautiful views. Peaceful and relaxing. We will definitely be returning for another stay.

Beautiful view of Totnes from the HIDEOUT.

The place was very clean and welcoming, with a little jar of milk in the fridge, tea and coffee, and a lovely bottle of wine. It has everything you need. Given its size, I would say it's the perfect place for a long weekend. It's at the top of the hill, many steps down to get to the HIDEOUT. I suggest travel light!

The Hideout is private, quiet, warm and cosy which comes at an accessibility cost, as in steps and slopes but it’s well worth it.

We loved the location and views. We found plenty of walks, boat rides and visits to keep us busy for the whole week. And last but not least, Nick and Donna were fantastic hosts. Thanks for a great holiday.

We loved our stay at The Hideout in Totnes!

The cabin had everything we needed and loads more, really cosy and super comfortable. Nick and Donna were so lovely and gave us plenty of great tips on where to go and what to see. Such a perfect little spot to relax and explore Devon – we’ll definitely be back!

Lovely spot with access to some great walks.

We had a wonderful stay at Dart View Hideout – a perfect oasis of peace and quiet, yet just a short distance from the town.

Donna and Nick are very kind and helpful, which made our stay even more enjoyable. A truly relaxing and beautiful place!

Fantastic property with absolutely stunning views.

The owners were friendly and helpful - on hand to offer advice if needed but never intrusive. A perfect relaxing break!

A lovely property.

Private and secluded garden. I will say that although the property is only located a short walk from Totnes town centre, it does involve walking up and down steep hills to get there and back. You would definitely find it difficult to stay here if you didn't have good mobility. For us, it was perfect. I like the fact it had an air fryer and a small slow cooker. The host was great and offered us lots of advice on the local area. I will definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises.

The situation of the cottage was lovely, quiet with wide ranging views.

We were made to feel very welcome by Nick and Donna. Access would be no problem for the fit and able. Excellent value for the price. Margaret and Jim Oakley.

Fantastic property with everything you need in a lovely location.

Beautiful view in the morning. So peaceful and relaxing. Nick and Donna are great hosts extremely welcoming. We took advantage of Nicks knowledge of places to visit and great walks to experience. We will definitely be returning for another stay.

The property is in a lovely part of Devon with lots to do without having to travel too far.

Totnes is a delightful and friendly community. Access to the property was much harder than we anticipated. The steps were of varying height (rise) and would have benefitted, in places, with a hand rail to steady oneself particularly when descending. (the property owner did offer to carry our cases). The property, itself, was rather cluttered and would have benefitted by the removal of the settee which seemed to be unnecessry. The shower base was very slippery and warranted a non slip mat. The view from the terrace was lovely. Despite the negatives we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.

We had a wonderful stay at the Hide Out.

Nick and Donna were friendly and helpful but also left us to ourselves. It’s lovely inside and beautifully decorated. The kitchen is well equipped for self catering. Everything is very comfortable especially the bed and the chairs. The garden is also very pretty and there are lots of comfortable places to sit, including a lovely hammock, and admire the views which are spectacular. Our only reservation is the steps to to the hideout, although safe are a bit steep for anyone with mobility issues. We are in our mid seventies and my husband had a hip replacement recently so we found this a bit of a challenge. We managed though and our daughter and grandchildren had no problem. It is walkable to Totnes town centre on the road and there is a steep path down for the fit and agile.

Cabin was perfect for the two of us and our dog.

The cabin has everything you need and the host was very welcoming and helpful. Great location, with beautiful views and a short walk into town.

What an amazing find!

We had a wonderful stay at the hideout. Perfect for us and our dog, Polly. There was everything we needed and the owners were lovely. We will return and highly recommend it to anyone seeking peace and a central location.

The cabin is compact but very comfortable with some nice touches.

Nice bottle of wine left by the owners and shampoo/conditioner and liquid soap in the bathroom, plus dog treats and chocolate biscuits. It has all the facilities required such as small oven, microwave and toaster. The bed is comfy, It is a slight trek down to the cabin around another property and over two lawns with stones on to make getting to it easier. Also to get to town, you can go down another field, through a gate and you need to grab onto some rope to get to the path. I thought this quite exciting like an Enid Blyton book. The cabin is not for the infirm. This is made clear in the description. It is definitely like being cut off from the world and I would return. Views are amazing. There are binoculars at the property. The owners made contact a couple of times to make sure everything was ok. Not much power in the shower. Also pack light as there isn’t much storage space for belongings. We were lucky with the weather and it’s nice to sit out on the deck.

Beautiful wooden cabin overlooking the river Dart.

Perfect location especially as we didn't have a car (5 minutes walk to Totnes centre via the field and on the Sharpham Estate walking path). Small but had everything we needed including an outdoor bbq which we were lucky enough to use. We were lucky with the weather but the outdoor dining/bbq area is under a canopy and you can still be outside even it it rains. The fridge is on the small side (camping size) but I believe it will be changed to a larger one. Our hosts Nick and Donna were very nice and helpful and even gave us a lift into town on the day of our departure, thank you! We really loved the cabin and its position and will definitely be back :)

Peaceful elevated position and well positioned to explore the south devon area.

Ideal for a short break. Numerous steps up to the parking area, so not really suitable for those with mobility issues, but we knew this, and coped with it. Relaxed and recharged.

The listing is accurate.

You do need to be fairly fit as the steps are steep and the walk back from town is hilly. Ideal for the spring & summer, but we were unlucky with the weather.

Wonderful few days at Hideout, its ideal for someone who is fit and healthy, as its situated on a slope.

The views of Totnes and river are worth the climb , giving you the perfect feeling of being tucked away from the town , but close enough that your fish and chips are still hot to enjoy on the wooden terrace, on your return. The accommodation is small ( think studio ) but everything is well thought out and you want for nothing. It's well designed and very clean and welcoming .

The accommodation is fairly basic and all in one room, there is no ventilation other than having the door open.

It is tastefully decorated and furnished and is in a great location with excellent views over the Dart Valley. Access is via about 4o steps down from the parking space - so being able bodied is essential, this does mean that the Hide Out is very quiet and secluded. There are trails at the bottom of the steep garden along valley and into Totnes - (down a very steep bank to get to them) The owners were very helpful and dealt with some minor issues immediately. Cooking faculties are very basic , though there is an outdoor bar b q and smoker that we did not use.

Nice comfortable stay, owners very hospitable!

Absolutely stunning!

! Lovely soft furnishings and a very comfortable bed and a bottle of red on arrival! Everything you need to know is in the folder with a huge choice of different options and how you go about doing them. Very quiet and peaceful and would definitely recommend to a couple with a small dog

The Hideout was just perfect!

We wanted somewhere secluded, peaceful and dog friendly and we got exactly that. It’s a bit of a trek to get there (this is made clear in property description) but worth it. The Hideout had everything we needed, somewhere to cook, eat, a comfy bed, shower and a veranda with stunning views. Only just got back and already thinking about our next visit!
