Arrived in the rain but didn’t put a dampener on our stay. Super cosy cottage, with everything that we needed. Location was perfect and with fields opposite we could let our dog have a runaround before venturing out for the day. Surrounded by beautiful countryside a real get away from the usual hustle and bustle of everyday life. Lovely homemade bakes on arrival and a bottle of sparkly. Thank you Jenny & Mark

The Bing ist eine wunderbare Unterkunft, sehr liebevoll eingerichtet mit einem sehr herzlichen Willkommensgruß. Wir haben uns sofort wie zuhause gefühlt. Es liegt prima mitten im Dartmoor gelegen, sehr gut für Tagesausflüge im Dartmoor.
