Use for an event requires a minimum of 7 nights booking for both Sages house and Flat 1. Please contact us if you wish to hold an event so that we can discuss parking etc. with you.

Sages has been our family home for nearly one hundred years. We are working through a long-term restoration programme so the bathrooms and kitchens are newly renovated and the reception rooms and bedrooms are still "shabby chic" - but the beds are new and luxurious!
Families with young children are very welcome.

A comfortable property. Excellent site manager, who has been very friendly and helpful during our stay. Attractive village with good amenities, local village store and pub all within an easy walk. Very pretty countryside with lovely views.
Lovely old building. Everything you need to be comfortable is there. Superbly comfortable beds, constant hot water and the Aga is a dream for cooks. Everything works and the flat is very well equipped for a longer stay. Lovely village with great pubs.
Lovely period property. Very well equipped. Crisp, clean bed linen and comfy beds. Jenny the host was very kind and communicative. Great location in a lovely village with very good eateries within walking and short drives. Altogether excellent.

No Ikea here👍
Very comfortable furniture. Lovely features like the aga. It didnt want for anything, very well equipped. Not enough room in the bedroom with kingsize bed. Only one bedside cabinet. Extremely quiet and peaceful. Good amenities in the village. Wifi not the best.

Really comfortable and beautiful area with the Tarka trail next to the house
We had a few nights stay at this delightful cottage which was very comfortable and cosy. Situated in rural countryside with some very nice pubs in the surrounding areas, one within walking distance. The house catered for all out needs with very comfy beds with large thick towels provided. The house has a large log stove and two fridge/freezers and a local cockerel which is very vocal first this in the morning. Not far to some great beaches like Instow. Appledore, Lynton and Clovelly are all an hours drive away and are a great day out. Thanks for a lovely stay, we will come back again next year.
Perfect place for me to work. Lots of space for one person (or 2). Cozy Aga. Atmospheric large gardens. Excellent and delightful on site manager. This is old fashioned and hasn’t been decorated for a while. But a well equipped kitchen set up. Excellent large kitchen table and endless possibilities to cook on the Aga. Note a modern oven, hob and microwave were there too. Friendly village. Two pubs. Long deepest Devon walks. Quite a way on little roads to get anywhere. I was there five weeks and was sad to go. That’s a recommendation!
Lovely place - very much a 'period piece'! Another reviewer mentions "shabby chic" - and while it certainly is a good description, I believe the place HAS had a good makeover!
Everything was superb and appliances etc seemed new.
Lovely situation and the village was lovely - 2 pubs, shop, butcher and a gorgeous church!
Beware that there IS a new hob in the kitchen, but also a fully functioning Aga that is always on! In winter that would be splendid, but on even on just a warm day it can be overpowering (heat), especially in the kitchen. That said, we cooked a few meals using it and never used the new hob!!! :)
They bent over backwards to help and I highly recommend.

Very peaceful cottage and village.
Reasonably well equipped flat with private garden. Definitely shabby-chic but understand significant improvements scheduled.
Good comms with Richard the owner who was very helpful.
Royal Oak pub very friendly m, well stocked village store.
45-60 mins drive from main surf beaches
Lovely Period Property with stunning mature gardens a stone's throw from two local pubs serving very good food. a well stocked local shop open until 8pm to get provisions
Although the beaches were a little drive away , it certainly beats the rat race to find a place to stay in the summer months and at a very reasonable cost , although the property was fully equipped with washing machine , dishwasher and lots of extra touches we were not expecting and would be a very comfortable accomodation all year around Well done Richard and your team A*****
Amazing service from start to finish. Property, location and landlord excellent.
Amazing service from start to finish. Will use Homeaway again for sure 😁
The location, property and landlord (Richard) were perfect would def stay at this property and location again 😁
Lovely few days in great little village. 2 good pubs, excellent walks and small store. Flat was well equipped and clean with lovely garden. Currently going through a refurb so even better next time. 👍🙂
Sages is a beautiful home and flat in the peaceful village of Dolton
My husband & I spent 3 days/2 nights in the apartment at Sages this month and our short visit to Dolton was wonderful. The decor was in keeping with the charm and character of the home, yet the bathroom and kitchen had been updated with new appliances and conveniences. The gardens were beautiful with flowers, shrubs and magnificent old trees everywhere you looked. We enjoyed morning coffee in the garden overlooking the countryside, quiet walks and watched a farmer tend to his field in the distance. The pubs and little general store which carried practically everything you could need, were within walking distance in the village and Dartmoor, Exmoor and the beautiful beaches of North Devon were not too far for day trips by car. Coming from the US we were happy to have discovered this gem and hope to return again one day for a longer visit.

Quaint Property
Located in a fabulous village - all thatched cottages, a great pub with friendly locals, great beer and wine and fab food. A small supermarket, and really good walks
The property is dated - in a 1940s kind of way, with modern and very comfy beds - no criticism but do not arrive expecting "modern".

Oasis of calm in the rolling Devon countryside
We loved our 2 night stay in Sages, a stop-off on the Devon Coast to Coast cycle ride. The house is charming and well-equipped including a dishwasher which meant we didn't have to shout at the kids to wash up all the time. The verandah and private garden are perfect for reading the paper over a cup of coffee and you could easily spend an hour or two exploring the walled garden and the grounds. Two pubs and a well-stocked shop within walking distance- we suggest you book if you fancy the Rams Head as we couldn't get in!

Lovely old villa in beautiful village with an excellent pub round the corner
Although a beautiful house the overall comfort could be better. There were several minor shortcomings such as the lack of the advertised dishwasher, no wall socket in the bathroom for shaving or drying your hair, lack of small bins in the bedrooms as well chairs or hooks for your clothes in the bedrooms, the same in the bathroom (bin ok) and no manuals of the appliancies.
But overall we enjoyed our stay, loved the garden and the village.
