On arrival, we received a warm welcome. We were then shown to our lovely stylish and spacious bedroom which was immaculately clean and inviting, our host Leon then gave us a few minutes to settle in and then brought a tray of refreshments to our room ( drinks and cakes ). Fresh milk, ground coffee and filtered water were available... More

We spent a few days at Lanscombe House at Easter 2012, and HIGHLY RECOMMEND it to anyone considering a trip to South Devon. The village of Cockington really is a world away from the beach resorts, yet is so close when you want them. The welcome at the hotel was warm, the rooms were superb, and breakfast was excellent.

We first stayed at Lanscombe House 30 years ago on honeymoon and decided to have a short break for our anniversary. Everything was top notch and we really enjoyed the stay.

Our group booked six of the eight rooms for four days and loved every minute there. It is a very classy operation, nice bedrooms and elegant public rooms. Add in surrounding gardens, gracious hosts, good breakfasts and an honor bar and you have a superb place to stay. We often stay in B & B's so this was quite a... More

Lanscombe House is a friendly, well run guest house in a great location with plenty of room for parking. Nothing is too much trouble for Paula and Leon the hosts, they are very approachable and keep the guest house spotless, they even greeted my Husband and I with a pot of tea and shortbread which made us feel very welcome....

Well run and friendly hotel in a beautiful village setting. Situated in a hidden valley, it's hard to believe there is a large town next door. Just amble through the village and it's walks or visit the craft centre. Great place to chill.
