The Cuckoo Calls on Brat Tor glorious Dartmoor

Walking over High Down and Brat Tor on glorious Dartmoor, not far from Lobhill farmhouse, I heard the cuckoo for the first time this year!

All through the early summer months, since childhood, I would listen out for this great birdsong hearalding the beginning of summer.

Truly amazing place with wonderful hosts!
We have now spent 2 nights at the wonderful Lobhill Farmhouse. First night in The Cottage and then back for another night in the farmhouse.
I have forgotten how many times I have said “wow” at this beautiful/truly stunning bed & breakfast. The facilities are exceptional, as is the location and our host Jane definitely goes the extra mile with everything.
Everywhere is spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated with a gorgeous homely feel in both the cottage and the house. The showers are all fantastic (again spotlessly clean and great power). Beautiful bedding and towels too.
When we arrived Jane explained about the woodland walk in the woods behind the farm which leads to the Vineyard owned by her sister and what a lovely walk it is! A great way to stretch those legs after hours in the car.
We didn’t have time to visit the Vineyard but it looks equally beautiful and a great place to add to the list of places to visit in the area.
The breakfast was delicious! Hot, fresh and very tasty. Great service.
We are returning for our third night tonight and looking forward to the whole experience again.
The little extra touches (like little jar of fudge on coffee tray in room) is a very sweet extra and delicious.
We would HIGHLY recommend anyone stay at this beautiful place and want to thank Jane and Adrian for making us feel so welcome.
