 “My husband and I absolutely loved this beautiful and special place which is both tucked away in the landscape and easy to find. The cabin is immaculate and so thoughtfully created with so many individual touches. It is perfectly formed and has all that you need. It really is the most peaceful of places and I highly recommend it!” Katie 22.05.26

“We had a superb time staying at this secluded cabin and would return gladly. The hosts were kind, friendly and helpful, the accommodation was original and fun, the information given was perfect and informative and the views were everything we could have wished for. One of the most pleasant, relaxing and enjoyable holidays we have ever had. We arrived and felt instantly at home and relaxed and that feeling didn’t leave for the whole long weekend. Would we return? Oh yes indeed. Yes please.”

“We had an amazing 3 nights at the Book Nook – what a spot! There is so much to love here, from the cabin itself with its delightful decor, to the surrounding nature and idyllic setting in Dartmoor, and the thoughtful touches in terms of the warm welcome and hospitality.
Sarah and Nick have obviously put a lot of care and love into the cabin, and we felt really lucky to have stayed here. It really is like being transported to a calmer time while still having everything you need for a great break.
Cosy fires, walks around the scenic woods, and easy access to explore Dartmoor, with so much creativity, imagination, and care. Book the Book Nook and you’re in for a treat!”

We won’t forget it. We’re very grateful to you for lighting the fire for us and I can safely say that we’re in love with The Book Nook.”

“If you’re looking for a quiet, whimsical weekend away, look no further than the Book Nook. It’s like stepping into another world, surrounded by books, nature and bird song. The cabin is SO thoughtfully done. It’s a gorgeous, cosy space equipped with everything you could need for a couple of nights away. Communication from Sarah and Nick was excellent, the cabin was easy to find, and we really appreciated all the extra touches. A 10/10 magical stay – we’ll be recommending it to everyone ❤️”

We know that arriving to a cosy fire after a difficult drive is a simple comforting joy!

”Oh my word, I knew it would be good from the pictures but I don’t think it’s possible to have found a space more suited to Beke, I’ve earned some serious points with her by booking this 😅. Thanks so much for making this place exist!”

“This was a break away for our anniversary and it couldn’t have been better. So many personal touches made this feel so special and we had such a cosy stay! The minute we arrived we switched off, kicked off our boots and hunkered. It was perfect. Keep doing what you’re doing! So many thanks!”

Oh guys this is SO lovely! Thank you for sharing your review with us. It really does mean the world to us. Happy anniversary and wishing you all the best in your next chapter! Sarah and Nick

“My wife and I absolutely loved our short stay in the Book Nook. The attention to detail and quirky book themed decor makes for a very relaxing and comfortable stay. Cosy stove and a ladder to the mezzanine bed add to the fun. Extremely quiet apart from the welcome sounds of nature and lots to see around the area – Dartmoor and nearby coastline. Lovely hosts. Thanks.”

Thank you so much for your review!. We’re delighted you enjoyed your stay and it was lovely to meet you both. We look forward to welcoming you back another time. With best wishes from Dartmoor, Sarah and Nick.

“Whilst staying at the Book Nook, I texted a friend some photos. She wrote back: “The interior looks like what I’d imagine a small mouse’s house would look like in a fairytale.”

“Fairytale,” is the perfect word to describe this place, so I had to borrow her words. It’s whimsical, unique, and just absolutely gorgeously put together- so much love has clearly been poured into every millimetre and it was a wonderful space to inhabit; restorative and inspiring, the perfect escape- just like retreating to the pages of a well-loved novel, only better. Sometimes these places can be style over substance, but not so with the Book Nook. It’s a fantastically practical space, with so many thoughtful details to make it a more comfortable stay- from the fantastically outfitted and efficient kitchenette- with not just coffee provided, but *good* coffee- to the spare blankets under the armchairs, to the plentiful well-placed outlets and clever foldable furniture- this is a space that is truly as restful to inhabit as it looks.Sarah and Nick were incredible hosts, super welcoming and responsive, helping us with our confusion over the electric shower (very much our own fault!) and even going above and beyond and kindly giving us a lift to the station on our final day when we realised Sunday buses wouldn’t start on time to get us home.

The location, of course, is also beautiful, and we very much enjoyed longer ramblings and shorter walks alike. Sarah & Nick again provided some great recommendations nearby, and we had a delicious meal and some lovely hikes thanks to their local expertise.

We are already scheming a repeat visit- if you have the chance to book the Book Nook (no pun intended!) take it. Thank you so much again to Sarah & Nick!”

We have loved reading your review and are so thankful you took the time to leave us your thoughts. Thanks too for your beautiful poem, we shall be framing it! We’re absolutely delighted that you were able to switch off, relax and enjoy your break. It’s so interesting you mention about the little mouse house! We took great inspiration from the Brambly Hedge books, so it’s wonderful to know that’s been conveyed in your feeling of the place! Hope you had safe travels home. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon and send our very best wishes from Dartmoor, Sarah and Nick

“Wonderful stay in the amazing Book Nook. It’s so thoughtfully played out with intriguing touches throughout. Sarah is so creative and it makes you smile at every turn. The location is great on the edge of Dartmoor and all that has to offer. Thankyou so much for such a relaxing stay in your beautiful place”

Neil, thank you. It was so lovely to chat to you in person on the lane and we’re really thankful for your wonderful review. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

“We loved our stay at the Book Nook. At night we heard an owl and the sky was so clear we saw a shooting star! The cabin is so thoughtfully decorated and Sarah lit the log burner for us on arrival, and also left some eggs. The Book Nook is very cosy, peaceful and full of nostalgia from some of my favourite childhood books. We were able to visit Ashburton, Totnes and go for a walk on Dartmoor. Highly recommended!”
