I took my Mumand Aunt to stay here for a few nights during half term. It was a delightful place to stay. Kate and Nathan were extremely friendly and welcoming and gave us great recommendations for trips out to local attractions( would definitely recommend the steam train and Buckfast Abbey ). Gages Mill is beautiful. The rooms are very tastefully decorated , a real home from home feel. Mum and I were in the twin , downstairs room , which had a lovely old feel to it , including the old fashioned high , pull chain WC ! A lovely touch to ensure the quaintness of the house has been retained!
Breakfast was delicious - a great choice of pastries , cereals and delicious cooked choices too.
We would definitely return for another visit and I’ve also recommended it to other friends and family to go and stay if they are ever in Devon too.
My Mum left her coat behind , which Kate very kindly posted back to her free of charge. Thanks for that Kate !
I would love to return again to Gages Mill in the future and explore some more of the beautiful...
Read moreAbsolutely delightful, set in the countryside this is a beautiful location. Had a visit to Buckfastleigh and decided to make a weekend of it. We came across Gages Mill Country Guest House and booked it. The reviews and location sold it for us and when we arrived we weren't disappointed. Both Kate and Nathan are excellent hosts, very friendly and nothing is too much trouble for either of them. Set back of the road is a welcoming house and grounds teaming with wildlife. The gardens are well kept with seating all over the large grounds where you can relax and lose yourself for a while. Inside is well presented with a TV lounge adjacent to the dining room. The bedrooms were really nice with everything you need for a stay, ensuite bathroom with a large shower overlooking the gardens. We also had breakfast which was nice and set you up for the day. All in all it was a very enjoyable stay with top notch hosts and stunning location. Can't recommend this place highly enough, Kate and Nathan...
Read moreWe stayed at Gages Mill for 2 nights. It is a beautiful property set in lovely gardens with an array of wildlife and birds to watch on the various bird feeders set around the garden. A perfect place to de stress and relax.
Kate and Nathan made us feel very welcome and gave us plenty of recommendations for places to eat locally.
The breakfast was lovely, with everything you could wish for being available, including a lovely veggie fry up and great coffee to set you up for the day!
The location of the property is excellent for exploring Dartmoor and the surrounding area. Ashburton is a 25 minute walk away and there are plenty of lovely walks within a ten minute drive. Buckfast Abbey is 10 minutes away and Salcombe Harbour is around 45 minutes away in the car.
I would love to come back again next year and stay for a bit longer next time to explore...
