“The hot tub was only at 19c too cold on arrival Friday ,unable to use.”

The Hotbut jets worked intermittently and then didn't turn off. There is a leek in the downstairs bathroom ( with bath) and smell of urine. Rather disappointed.

“Lovely lodge, well equipped.”

Great location.

“Really nice Lodge with large bedrooms.”

Kitchen is quite small but well stocked. You may need to move utensils around to create cupboard space to store your food. Beware the toaster that burns your bread even if set on 1. I'm not sure if it actually pops up on its own or if it's broken. Hot Tub was great although it would be nice to be aware in advance about the restrictions of use and the time for it to heat up because of the water replacement between bookings. The guest paperwork left in the lodge was for a different property, so was of little use (no robot lawn mowers at this lodge

“We had a great holiday, Erica was very helpful and great location.”

“There were a few minor issues (a chair with a broken back, bath fittings not working properly, general wear and tear on surfaces, etc.”

) but nothing major and we enjoyed our stay in this spacious house. Although the accommodation has 5 bedrooms there were only 8 chairs for the dining table which was insufficient. We also found the kitchen was a little small for the number of people that the house accommodates. The layout works well with the various sitting areas. It was also good to have facilities available such as the child stairgates. The only other thought is that the window blinds in the bedrooms don't cut out the light very well, which was not ideal for children's rooms.

Anne July 2021

“We booked with the expectation of a shared outdoor pool which was no longer available for use by the time of our holiday-this had been a major reason for us booking this accommodation.”

Despite this, the cottage exceeded our expectations, being even better than the photographs suggested and exceeding our expectations with regards to comfort, cleanliness and facilities and close proximity to Dartmouth and the beach. The house was well stocked with all the essentials needed for a large family and the Molton Brown toiletries and bottles of wine were a lovely touch. The tennis court and hot tub kept our teenagers happy and allowed us time to relax! We would definitely recommend and would love to return.

“The house was very clean and was the perfect size for two families.”

Everyone had space and the location of the house was perfect for us.

“Court lodge proved to be a very high quality holiday accommodation.”

The complex was very well maintained albeit building work on new properties on going it was not really a problem, hot tub could be better it struggled to maintain temperature during use and could not be used on the first day due to warm up time.All others aspects of accommodation were fine, will definitely go there again

ROBIN September 2020

“Booked in November for 8 people and due to guidelines and then introduction of rule of six, travelled with only six persons.”

No swimming pool and felt that I didn’t get what I had paid for. Repeated emails to Sykes customer service and discussions with Coast and Country yielded no results. Shocking customer service from both. Kitchen area was very small with an unpleasant smell emanating from the cupboard under the sink. There was Insufficient seating to accommodate entire party of six on comfortable chairs in one location, so if you are travelling with more you will be not be able to sit together to relax. Would not like to be 9th or 10th person staying, only 9 dining chairs, main table outside and hot tub only accommodate 8. Best feature without a doubt was the hot tub.

- ROBIN, September 2020
Lucy August 2020

“Returned here for the second year after having a great stay in 2019.”

Extremely disappointed to learn prior to the visit that both the park and the pool are currently not available. Having paid in excess of £3000 per week for our stay, these two facilities being unavailable really doesn't make this holiday good value for money. We were also quite shocked to arrive to find that there is significant building work taking place at Hillfield Village which we had not been informed of. Poor service from Sykes all round.

- Lucy, August 2020
Martin July 2020

“House was very clean and well equipped.”

We went away with our children and grandchildren so there were 10 of us. The bedrooms we’re comfortable and spacious (4 with en suite). The lounge area didn’t have enough sofas for 10 people and meant some had to use the large footstool and dining chairs which weren’t ideal. The house is close to Dartmouth and has lovely views from 2 of the bedrooms. We were told the pool and children’s play area was out of use due to COVID situation but on arrival it was clear the children’s playground was out of use due to the building works being undertaken so that wasn’t so good. The hot tub had constant warm water that was cleaned daily. Tennis court was good and readily available for use. The house has a small decking area and no garden which we didn’t realise so that made it difficult for the grandchildren to run around freely. Would have been a nice touch for a small shop to get early morning milk, bread & eggs etc, but local supermarket a short drive away. House is well situated for a quiet peaceful holiday or short drive will take you to local towns, beaches and places of interest.

“The whole family had an amazing time and would thoroughly recommend this beautiful Lodge.”

Well done Sykes we will definitely be using you again.

Hannah December 2019

“The property is fabulous.”

We came for Christmas and had wine and mince pies waiting for us which was a nice touch. Exceptionally clean and well kept with all that you would need. Even better than the photos suggest and perfect size for us with 5 adults and 2 kids. Could have easily had more people. There was no instructions for washing machine/heating etc that we could find. It wasn't an issue for us personally but could have done with a bit more property info and may be annoying for some. The play area on site was closed and no-one had told us which was very disappointing as was one of the reasons we booked this village.

“Fantastic stay - pictures really don't do this place justice.”

Even better than we expected!

“We had a truly enjoyable family holiday at Court Lodge in Hillfield Village, which is set in a peaceful location but not far from picturesque Dartmouth and all the beaches and towns in the beautiful South Hams.”

Your staff were very helpful in arranging alternative accommodation.

“The property was much better than your website and photos suggest.”

It was immaculate and practically brand new. All the furnishings, bathrooms and facilities were of super high quality and luxury- one of the best holiday rentals we have ever hired. We will definitely return.

About the location

DARTMOUTH

Totnes 12 miles.

Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many local events such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through picturesque countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat trip across to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a pretty little harbour town. For those seeking some beach activities, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blue Flag Award winner Blackpool Sands, and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular and just a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.

The new children’s play area with a climbing frame, slide and swings, along with the outdoor tennis court remains open all year round. Please note - tennis rackets and balls are NOT provided.

Following the completion of eight newly constructed 3-bedroom properties, further redevelopment is planned to commence during the Autumn. During the periods of property development Hillfield Village will continue to operate with as little disruption as possible, with continued access to the tennis court and play area. Please contact the Coast & Country Cottages office for further details on how the above may affect your specific accommodation.

All guests can exclusively enjoy green fees, swimming pool, leisure and gym facilities (subject to availability) at the nearby Dartmouth Golf and Country Club at Members Guest Rates, plus 10% off all spa treatments and 10% off all food and beverages in the Clubhouse Bar and Restaurant. Golf MUST be booked in advance via the Hillfield Village Reception. Any golf booked directly with the Pro Shop will not include the Members Guest Rate discount.

Due to the Health and Safety policy, any use of barbecues is strictly prohibited at Hillfield Village.
