5th stay

If you like the vibe of a farm and great views. This place is ideal. The yurts are so homely. This was our 5th visit over the last 5years, which says it all really. Never want to leave the chilled environment. Lovely family that make the stay so pleasant.

Perfect!

We’ve just spent a wonderful long weekend at Devon Yurt. What a spectacular place this is! We have visited before but not for a few years. There have been some fantastic updates; wood fired hot tubs and an outdoor sauna with a magnificent view… but it’s the things that stay the same that are the most important. A well equipped, comfortable, beautifully located yurt, with privacy and only birdsong for company, host Julia who is very kind and helpful but also very much unobtrusive. Lots of lovely farm animals and local produce enhance the stay. I almost don’t want to leave this review as we want to always be able to book to stay here, but it is so well deserved!

Brilliant to have so much space – boys and dog were very happy !

Thanks so much for a gloriously relaxing week in Great Links. An absolutely wonderful setting and brilliant to have so much space – boys and dog were very happy !  The hot tub was great fun, and the sauna really topped it off – what a view ! A very welcome break from the stressful everyday.  Thanks Julia

An amazing escape from city life

We have thoroughly enjoyed your retreat.  Great Links is truly an amazing escape from city life !  I have personally fallen in love with your beautiful ponies, this has surfaced memories from my childhood. As I write this i am sat listening to the birds with the sunshine on my face and the morning dew on my toes !  Thank you for providing the tools and environment for us to rest our minds and feed our souls.

Perfect holiday !

We have had the most wonderful holiday here again.  It’s the perfect spot to relax and spend time together. It’s our third visit and this time we have been ridiculously lucky with the weather.  We’ve enjoyed hot tub and cold tub and sitting out every night to watch for shooting stars. We’ve loved every minute and don’t want to go home. Thanks for being such an excellent host Julia.

This year we went to Widemouth for beach days,  Castle Drogo and Lanhydrock which are fascinating. and lydford gorge for a cool walk on a hot day. We’ve had really excellent meals at both Church Lane, Tavistock, and The castle Inn at Lydford and highly recommend both.  Perfect Holiday ! Anne

What a lovely holiday !  I have enjoyed it so much.  It has been a lot of fun nd the weather has been perfect,  Highly recommend Lanhydrock (very cool) and church lane ( very tasty ) Alba has been great fun to be around and she is very cute ( if not a bit giddy) swing ball with dad has been great fun as well. You know what ? most things here are great fun ! thanks Joe 🙂

We even had a fly past from the the red arrows !  Perfect week.  Phil – Swingball champion !

Bonnie has enjoyed being able to run free in the paddock

What a beautiful and relaxing spot.  It has been a much needed relaxing break. The yurt is so comfortable and the views spectacular, we have explored the local area, inducing a wild swim near Lydford.  Bonnie our dog, has enjoyed being able to fun free chasing balls in the paddock to her hearts content. We hope to come back again.

Can’t wait to return in July !

Yet another wonderfully relaxing stay. Our second here this year with another booked for the summer hols !  We arrived like coiled springs, stressed from being mid A levels and end of year 9 exams – we are leaving fully refreshed and with amazing dories.  Lamb cuddling, toasting marshmallows and s’mores by the woodturner are our highlights along with an awesome breakfast and ice creams at the Strawberry fields. As always, Julia has been a fabulous host and Alba was a wonderful four legged friend for Bonnie !  Cant wait to return in July !

Such a perfect spot – the perfect get-away

What a place !  I feel like I have found somewhere from my imagination- during our stay I kept thinking this place couldn’t actually be real !  such a perfect spot – the perfect getaway.  Julia has thought of everything and more. Had to tear ourselves away to go out but a look around tavistock was worth it for the sourdough pastries in the market.  Our favourite moments though will be the cuddles with the lambs and our chats with Julia.  We loved it so much we’re coming back next month and in the summer we’re bringing grandparents to enjoy The Granary.  Thanks to the whole team for a wonderful break.  The first of many to come !

This was our paradise for the week

We booked this week a few months back and what luck !  The weather could not have been better.  Probably a little too good ha ha ! A wonderful relaxing place to be,  a real back to the basics feel even though glamping away from modern life. This was our paradise for the week and Julia definitely helped to make it so.  Once having been here, definitely deserving another visit or two or three….The Castle Inn in Lydford a must for good food and nice setting.  Also, Cornish Arms, best Scotch Egg EVER – part of the ploughman’s – a beautiful part of the world.  Seriously hope to see you again next year Julia. Best Wishes xx

It is a rare thing to find a place and space of perfect peace.

It is a rare thing to find in the hyperconnected, noise and chaos of modern life a little links,  a place and space of perfect peace,   a retreat, to reconnect with the swallows overhead, the sounds all around, the greens and the blues and passing clouds. The mighty oak,  to bathe all day in the hot water tub. We all feel held and healed.   With all our love and gratitude.

Last minute birthday trip ended u being the best decision we could have made

Last minute birthday trip ended up being the best decision we could have made.  We slowed down the second we got out of the car.  Cooking by fire, waking and sleeping with the sun, showering in the rain, yoga with the sheep, naked hot tubs and fabulous sunsets. We did the Peter Tavy river walk which was great for the dog. The strawberry fields farm shop has all the food and drink you will need.  Julia has created a sacred space here,  we will be back.  Thank you,  we are leaving with a smile 🙂

A Fantastic Way to Relax and Escape the Chaos of London

My girlfriend and I stayed at Devon yurt in the Little Links for a long weekend. It was beautiful weather and we had the most amazing time down in Devon. From our yurt we had the most spectacular views of Dartmoor and loved being able to watch the sunset most evenings whilst in the hot tub. It is a really special place and a fantastic way to relax and escape the chaos of London.

Julia was an exceptional host and she went above and beyond to make sure we were well looked after. She has fantastic knowledge of the local area and we managed to visit some lovely beaches, go on some great walks and stop in at some good pubs too (before lockdown!).

I would highly recommend Devon Yurt to anyone and have already pencilled in another visit towards the end of the year to make sure I return.

It is the Perfect Getaway

I stayed here in March before lockdown, and I have to say that it is paradise. It is the perfect getaway, with so much to do in the local area. Devon yurt has a breathtaking location, with views from your own private hot tub out over Dartmoor. The yurts themselves are gorgeously decorated, with comfy beds and every amenity at your disposal. This is the perfect place to truly relax, unplug, and immerse yourself in nature whilst indulging in luxury. Thank you to our wonderful host, Julia, we will be back soon!!!

Fresh scrambled eggs with butter cooked on the fire for breakfast!

We’ve all had such a wonderful week away, plenty of fresh air and glorious scenery and of course the gorgeous yurt to come back to. Julia has been a fabulous host, tending to our every need, giving us great recommendations (Sandy Mouth beach is heaven) and even taking our towels in when it rained! Everything has been clean and comfortable, we even used the invigorating outdoor shower and the children loved the hot tub. They will miss the horses, sheep and chickens (fresh scrambled eggs with butter cooked on the fire for breakfast!) and of course the ‘elephant tree’ (look out for it next to the barn) Thank you so much for a fantastic holiday.

Truly relaxing being away from London and sirens and noise and pollution

Thank you very much for making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. We had a lovely time in the hot tub with the kids. The bed was comfortable and the yurt very homely. Thank you for the fab breakfasts and helping us out with dinner one night. There’s no baked potato like one from an AGA. Brought back childhood memories. We would definitely return, it was truly relaxing being away from London and sirens and noise and pollution. Why do we live there and not here!

At one point, I think we had all three fires on the go: bath, tub & pit! Having somewhere to stay that adds to the holiday is such a bonus and makes all “down time” a real treat.

We have done a lot of camping over the years and appreciated all the benefits of it without any of the hassles. Thank you Julia and family for letting us share your magical place. Maybe see you again one day.

Thank you for a wonderful stay on your beautiful farm. We’ve enjoyed an amazing few days over an anniversary and birthday, and only wish we could have stayed longer! The yurt is incredibly roomy and comfortable, the views are gorgeous and the setting wonderfully relaxing.

This is a wonderful place for little (and big!) ones, and our daughter was particularly enchanted by the sheep, horses and hens both little and large. We would love to come back!

Completely wonderful and peaceful and nourishing and joyful !

We can’t really describe how completely wonderful and peaceful and nourishing and joyful our weekend here has been. Julia and Andrew – you are the perfect hosts and made us feel like old friends.  Your fish pie really is the best we’ve ever had!

Just heavenly.  Delicious trips to Coombeshead farm (Sunday Lunch Amazing ) and Tavistock for shopping ( cheese shop fab) and also the gardens at Endsleigh were out of this world.  Off to Lydford Gorge today. But our best times were spent here – in the hot tub, in the bath tent and snuggled up in the yurt, Honestly,  Borough Farm and all who live here will hold a very special place in our hearts always ! we’ll be back ! soon !

We had a wonderful stay

We had a wonderful stay at Devon Yurt. The yurt is so cosy, especially the amazing bed which was huge and comfy. The hot tub was brilliant and we had lots of fun with the wood fires. Julia was so friendly and took time to show us around her wonderful place and gave us recommendations of things to do. (Lydford gorge was a big highlight)
The whole place really was picture perfect with really wonderful little touches.

The perfect cozy get – together for all the girlies!

A year later (to the day!) We’ve returned to little links for another night! It was the perfect cosy get – together for all the girlies! We raided the local blackberry supply on a lovely walk overlooking Dartmoor, the got going preparing a totally local and delicious crumble. The famous ‘Turkey auction’ roast was just what we needed and in our very full state we piled into the hot tub! W thought 5 of us might be a challenge but it was relaxing and atmospheric and warmed us up perfectly before bed! The location was perfectly quiet and we loved looking at the moon and stars – not something we see machine Archway! Thank you so much for having us – its been the perfect stopover on our way to Cornwall! look forward to seeing you soon.

We will definitely be back!

We had an amazing time staying here – outside dinners and bbqs and the yurt stayed cool even though we had beautiful 27 degrees sunshine. Julia and Andrew were lovely hosts. Dylan enjoyed feeding the chickens in the morning and looking for eggs. We will definitely be back as there is so much we didn’t get to do! A couple of things we did try: Canoes with Tamar Trails. Widemouth and Sandymouth beaches (good for body boarding) cycle hire in Bude. Motor boat hire in Fowey – all were great fun. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We couldn’t believe the stars, so pretty !

This was our first glamping experience, I wasn’t sure what to expect but it has been the most magical time. We couldn’t have had better weather which just added another dimension to our stay.  The yurt is absolutely gorgeous and contains everything you could ever need. We loved the hot tub ( with a rum and coke) and watching the sun go down.  The shower room is beautiful and that shower – wow ! We loved waking up to the sound of the animals ( rather than the roar of traffic ) we could listen to the sheep forever,  so comical.  The best experience ever was bottle feeding the 3 black lambs,  I couldn’t stop smiling.  Thank you !  You have the most special home in a beautiful environment and we will definitely be back !  we couldn’t believe the stars !  so pretty.  We couldn’t have asked for more perfect hosts,  you were helpful in every way and our breakfasts were amazing, and 10 stars for the pancakes on Sunday.  I am so sad to be going home and wish we were here for longer !!!

An experience I’m already excited to do all over again !

Julia told me before I booked that I wouldn’t find a better Yurt and boy oh boy was she correct.  Julia is an amazing host who was very welcoming to such a beautiful place.  The little touches make your experiences, such as the ‘hot tub kit’ , the candles to light up the yurt at night and the fresh flowers, the  BBQ,  wood fire heated hot tub, amazing views and top of the line facilities made this not just a relaxing stay but an experience I’m already excited to do all over again.  Would and have recommended this place to everyone !

Thank you an amazing stay !  we all loved it here – I think this year’s trip even topped last year’s trip here,  which is really saying something ! we had a super time boogie boarding and climbing rocks at crackington haven and sandy mouth and experienced a tremendous thunderstorm ! best of all though the boys loved feeding the lambs with Andrew and seeing and holding the baby chicks with Julia,  it has been so relaxing and we are all thoroughly recharged ! ( last year the boys helped when the baby lambs were born and they were named after them ) we can’t wait to come back again – thanks so much

The View Is Absolutely Phenominal

We have thoroughly enjoyed our time at Little Links. The view is absolutely phenominal and a great escape from our busy home life. The bath is fantastic and so relaxing. We loved visiting Lydford Gorge with our lab Bobby yesterday and woukd highly reccommend this to anyone else visiting here. We also did the “round robin” on the steam railway to Dartmouth. Overall, a very relaxing time away with lots of laughs, reading and fire starting. The attention to detail here is great too – I loved sitting with a blanket stargazing across the hills!

What a fabulous place you have! Exceptional views and a handsome range of livestock enriched our back to nature experiences does the beautifully dressed bed. With such quality sleep, we were raring to go each morning! There is so much to see and do in this area, yet we didn’t want to leave campus!

I wish we had longer here

We had a lovely time in the yurts, it is amazing. Me and Amy loved going body boarding there were huge waves. We did it with our firends Willow and Theo who live in Cornwall. The food was yummy when we had a midnight feast but we did not stay up til midnight, just up till late. The bed is really comfy, I wish we had longer here. I love being near the sheep horses and chickens.

Thank you for a lovely stay !  We had a brilliant time and Charlie loved meeting all the animals… especially the cheeky ducks and the chickens which he enjoyed shouting cock-a-doodle-doo at every morning. We had fun exploring Devon and Cornwall, with trips to the aquarium in Plymouth and the Eden Project – both perfect for a two year old. The shower room, fridge freezer and washing facilities made our stay really comfortable. Especially for those early chilly mornings with a little one. Thank you for making us so welcome, we hope to be back soon !

The little touches made little links a very special holiday location. Every detail was thought of – even games for the boys to play with.  The shower was great too- much appreciated by a Londoner who wasn’t too keen on camping. Boys had a fabulous time and learnt so much. Thank you, enjoy your lovely family in good health.  Great holiday thanks !

We’ve done so many amazing things here

Dear Julia and family, Thank you for such a memorable holiday – we’ve done so many amazing things here – water skiing at Rock, invigorating tow hour walk at Lydford gorge, body boarding at Trebarwith Strand, and at Watergate Bay, horse riding at Cholwell stables, entering Twiglet in the prettiest dog contest at Manaton’s country fair ( we didnt win!) and all on top of some spectacular star gazing, holding week old chicks, feeding the sheep, keeping the log burner burning, home made breakfast treats, open air bath times – we could go on ! we are due to emigrate to the US so this is probably our last British holiday and we are so very happy at how British it was. You have inspired us to do a similar set up in the states… who knows ! All the very best to you, family and pets.

We absolutely love it here, see you next year !

Our second time staying in Great Links – we weren’t blessed with the heatwave from last year but the gales and rain made for a fun ad interesting adventure ! Once again Dot loved the outside loo and visiting and helping with the horses. Whilst Bruin enjoyed the views of the morning cows ! This year we ventured to the Aquarium at Plymouth – it was fab ! kids loved it as did we ! visited Tintagel Castle, very dramatic and very steep but kids did well and loved playing at the Haven Beach. Our final day was spent at Dingles heritage fairground, just down the road, again another fab attraction, then onto Padstow to watch boats in the harbour and eat ice-cream. As always a big thank you to Julia and Andrew for being such fabulous hosts and checking on us in the dead of night when the gales were blowing ! We absolutely love it here, see you next year !

Heaven in Devon

Wow what a beautiful place. We are not campers by any stretch of the imagination, but the Yurt won us over. We didn’t really have to worry about a thing! Comfy bed, place for a campfire and idyllic surroundings. Waking up to the sound of birdsong is amazing and walking out to look at the sun coming up over the hills was very special. So much to do in so little time! We will definitely be back. Thanks for making our stay so special – especially for the kids. A lot of work and love has gone into making this place so special.

We had fun exploring Devon and Cornwall, with trips to the aquarium in Plymouth and the Eden Project – both perfect for a 2 year old. The shower room,  fridge/freezer and washing facilities made our stay really comfortable.  Especially for those early chilly mornings with a little one !

Thank you for making us all so welcome….  we hope to be back soon !

A Wonderful Long Weekend

We’ve had such a wonderful long weekend, lots of nice beachy walks,  climbing on rocks and taking in the lovely views, as well as great fun in the yurt itself – a great adventure.  Thanks so much to Julia and Andrew who were so friendly and helpful.

We loved seeing the lambs born or even Liam and Ewan which were their given names, Thank you for letting us stay.  Love from Liam

We were SO cosy and warm

A most perfect time ! Here with our six month old baby, People thought we were a bit mad braving a yurt so early in the season, but we were SO cosy and warm. Lydford gorge is – as Julia says – like being in New Zealand, incredible. And the lambs !   just one more to arrive now !

Heaven in Devon !

Thank you for keeping the bath tent and Little Links yurt up for us !  It’s a beautiful place and you were great hosts – nice and friendly with good tips for the local area.  So glad we discovered this little piece of heaven in Devon ! We’ve had an amazing stay – perhaps it’s a case of once you’ve gone ‘glamping’ you won’t want to go camping ! Bathing under the stars and seeing shooting stars was magical.  Hope to visit again one day.

A lovely welcoming place

This is a lovely, welcoming place to stay – lots to do,  we particularly enjoyed riding on the moors at Cholwell stables – great for all standards and very friendly.    We will hopefully be back soon to do some more treks on Dartmoor.

The yurt is beautiful – I could live here !

So sad to be leaving.  Three nights isn’t nearly enough to take in this beautiful are of Devon/Cornwall.  We’ve had an amazing time on the last trip of our summer of adventures. My only regret is that we didn’t find this place earlier in the year so we could enjoy lighter evenings.  There just aren’t enough hours in the day.  The yurt is beautiful – I could live here !  That view is stunning.  Such peace !  Wild swimming on the moors,  beach trips to Trebarwith Strand and Widemouth,  pub grub at Mary Tavy and BBQ’s / campfires here at Little Links.  Wonderful memories.  Thank you for a fantastic end to our Summer camping / glamping trips.  So hope to be back next year.  Thank you Julia for everything !

Our family loved the space and tranquility

Thank you Julia for a wonderful stay !  We enjoyed walking at Lydford Gorge, visiting the swimming spots you recommended, a trip to Sandymouth and a walk along the top and of course afternoon tea at Endsleigh House. Thanks for the great recommendations and congratulations on creating such a wonderful retreat – can’t imagine how much hard work goes into maintaining it so beautifully – our family loved the space and tranquility.

We will be back !

Our home from home !

Another wonderful stay at Devon Yurt, our home from home !  Absolutely loved being back.  Julia is amazing !  The children adore her, and helping feed the animals.  Joshua caught some mackerel and she prepared and cooked them for him to enjoy !   brilliant ! We have adventured in Lydford Gorge – so beautiful – definitely a must.  Visited Padstow,  for crabbing,  shopping,  fish and chips and a bike ride to Camelford.  Eden project is another favourite. It’s so peaceful, beautiful and fun here we don’t want to leave!  Thank you SO much Julia,  Andrew and Oscar for helping us re-charge our batteries and for the incredible views,  fabulous setting and your magical hospitality there really is no where else quite like Devon Yurt.    See you next Summer !

The bed was so comfy

What can we say,  just that this was the holiday our little family needed,  it brought us closer and got us away from the telly.   The bed was so comfy and thankfully big enough for all four of us !  We will yurt again.

A fabulous few days filled with adventures, camp fires and outdoor bathing !  Our three year old loved his first glamping experience and little links was a magical place to tell him about the new baby brother or sister he’ll soon be meeting.  Andrew and Julia are super hosts, really welcoming of families with little people !  Thank you so much.

10/10 to Julia

We’ve had a lovely couple of days at Great Links. Lovely warm fires and a cuppa seems to taste better in a camping mug. We climbed up Brentor Church ( amazing views ) and visited Lydford Gorge – could be in New Zealand. Nice pub dinners at the Elephant’s nest and the Peter Tavy Inn. 10/10 to Julia she made us feel very welcome.

Thank you for a fabulous stay

We couldn’t have found a more perfect place. The yurt, the shower, the bbq, the wood burner, the little sweet peas and other thoughtful touches make a very special place. But it is Julia and Andrew who make it extraordinary. What lovely people, nothing seems to be too much. Always full of ideas, advice, suggestions and a happy smile. Thank you for a fabulous stay, it comes to something when you aren’t sure whether to tell everyone about it for fear of never getting another vacancy!

A really warm and special place

On a sunny spring inspection morning, I stumbled into a scene of pure rural bliss… in the kitchen Julia was tending to baby chicks keeping them warm in box on top of rayburn, whilst outside lambs frolicked around (it turned out that later that day she delivered another two!). Daffodils lined the drive and the kitchen garden showed first signs of healthy produce to come… This is a place to slow down and relax and soak up in the big views, with glass of wine, in the big outdoor bath. A really warm and special place, everything feels settled and happy and guests will too. Even though I didn’t get to stay this time, I left feeling relaxed
