Sitting on the edge of a lake by itself.

A beautiful tranquil getaway on the edge of Dartmoor, perfect for couples, families, and creatives looking for some beautiful space away from the city. A lovely welcome bottle of Lakehouse Gin is included in the price.

The Lake House sits on the edge of Dartmoor, not far from the beautiful town of Totnes and is only 15 minutes from the coast. This stunning log fire heated home is a idyllic place to chill or have a private gathering with a small group of friends.

Whether you are musicians looking for song writing time out and bit of a jam, or a couple looking for the ultimate Devon getaway with a difference, this unique abode offers a versatile and private location to escape from the crowd.

Please don't expect 5* luxury. Expect all things rustic...
Log fires, an outside pizza oven, a gas fired BBQ unrivalled views and the opportunity to simply chill.

The cabin sits on a lake surrounded by woodland by itself, there may be some unexpected friendly visitors such as geese and sheep It's a unique and wonderful experience.

A welcome pack is included in the price. Of our very own craft distilled, Lake House gin.
