We are welcoming guests to stay in our magical Wizard’s Rest... Because our wizard has gone on a journey searching for magical dragon eggs, we are offering guests a chance to step away from the castle with our brand new experience of the Wizard’s Rest, and enjoy the tranquil place he uses for his spells and meditation. This little hideaway is a dedicated space of relaxation enjoying total privacy and acres of gardens set in gorgeous rolling green countryside. If the weather is clear there are often magnificent sunsets to marvel at. On a clear night a full constellation of stars and the distant lights of the town in the valley below. For your stay make sure you bring your boots as the path goes through a field, well what would you expect from a Wizard’s rest!
We are experienced hosts welcoming you to enjoy the best of Devon and Cornwall, with rolling meadows and medieval historic surroundings for you to enjoy during your holiday stay.
Explore the best of Devon and Cornwall coastlines, with plenty of gorgeous nearby Beaches to drive to and explore during your trip, including the famous Saunton Sands. Enjoy taking a country stroll through the magical ancient woodland with its little stream leading to the unique village of Tawstock with its quirky thatched primary school and amazing hobbit style bridge. When is a phone box not a phone box? When it’s a library! There is a lovely medieval church and beautiful Tawstock court a historic house. Peaceful romantic country walks full of nature and wildlife. In the wider area, you can visit farm shops full of local produce, a pannier market with local Devonshire honey, top surf locations and try restaurants of award winning fish and chips!
