The hostess with the mostess for this wheelchair user!
This interesting farmhouse is run by the most delightful owner, prepared to go the extra mile for the comfort of her guests and to enhance their holiday experience. Nothing is too much trouble.When I contacted her to establish what her facilities were for disabled guests it quickly became apparent that although she had a very large room on the ground floor there were several steps to enter the property, the shower did not have a shower-seat and was not a roll in shower. She set about researching these issues thoroughly and by the time of my arrival had in place two magnificent ramps to cope with the challenging entrance and a free-standing shower seat identical to my own. Having used these facilities I can report that the shower did have a small lip, the toilet was high which suited me but that the floor of the shower was extremely slippery. I advised her concerning rubber slip resistant mats and am in no doubt that these will now be in place. The rooms were spotless and well maintained.Good parking area behind the farmhouse and away from the gravel.
The breakfasts were very good indeed offering top quality produce and home made jams and bread from the Aga and she is an excellent cook with her famous biscuits and fudge.
The farmhouse is cosy and welcoming; the interior displays crafts, antiques and memorabilia and is worth a morning's inspection and discussion to set the scene for the locality. My bedroom had lovely views of the large garden and fields where there were seating areas for guests.
The useful information manual provided her recommendations for evening meals with directions. I found it rather a challenge to successfully negotiate the country lanes and did keep getting lost, aggravated by darkness and mist crossing Dartmoor on returning!
Highly recommended.
