Luxury romantic breaks in Devon
From drawn-out lie-ins entwined in linen sheets to suppers by the light of the moon; our luxury romantic breaks in Devon offer seductive time away from routine.
We know that romance comes in many forms; though, we're not thinking chocolates and shop-bought flowers. For some, luxury romantic breaks in Devon conjure images of spending time together devouring freshly-caught Brixham crab on a beach house deck overlooking the ocean. For others, it’s sliding into roll tops bubbling over with heady essential oils, then drying off by an open fire. Or maybe you're a pair of bounding explorers, setting off into the Dartmouth moorland with a flask of tea, two scones and a bucket of cream in a picnic hamper, promising a sweet moment in the wilderness.
Our luxury cottages for two are spread far and wide, with views of the pounding ocean near Noss Mayo, based in tiny hamlets like North Bovey, and nestled on Dartmoor’s moody moorlands. Inside, there’s a dash of romance waiting for all tastes, from luxury hampers to bubbling wood-fired hot tubs. We've carefully curated our self-catering couples' retreats and honeymoon hideouts to ensure they are the most romantic in the land (you can even call in a private chef). So pack your bags for a weekend of sheer indulgence, unplug from work calls and plug into what really matters. Just the two of you.
