This is at least the 9th self catering I have stayed in, and by far the best. Everything you could ask for in a luxury break from home. Jenny & Colin have thought of every little detail. They really are the best hosts. We had such a great time that we were lucky enough to extend our stay by two... More

We stayed at The Porter's Office for two nights, and I would have happily stayed longer if I didnt have to go back to work ! We had a wonderful welcome from Jenny, and the welcome pack was a god send after a 4 1/2 hour car journey. The decor was exceptional, and there were some lovely touches. We wouldnt... More

A swift, professional booking. Lovely, warm greeting from Jenny & Colin, the owners. We stayed at The Porters House for three wonderful nights. The finishing touches make this a whole new experience and the atmosphere was amazing. We could have spent weeks listening to the history and love/passion put into the renovation of this outstanding piece of history. Without hesitation... More

We stayed at the Porters House at the Old Tavistock Railway station a brief two nights, but were completely blown away by the sheer magnificence of this first class self-catering establishment. The owners Jenny & Colin were very welcoming and despite our hectic travelling schedule, extremely accommodating. We enjoyed relaxing massages on the premises to help us completely unwind and...

Wonderful renovation of Tavistock Station. We spent a weekend in the Ticketing Hall which was really well equipped with top quality furnishings. Very different accomodation that was full of character which just made the weekend more memorable. The owners Colin and Jenny were very friendly and gave us a warm welcome, including essentials like teabags and milk when we arrived... More

Just returned from a week in lovely Tavistock--from incredible digs in the Porter's Office, a two-bedroom self-catering dream. The accommodations were amazing, as was the hospitality. The Railway Station has it all--comfy beds, modern kitchen, a lovely setting high on a hill overlooking a town we fell in love with, that has everything you could want, shops, great restaurants, and...

Tavistock Station is a wonderful example of bringing a stunning Victorian building back to life and indeed Colin and Jenny have clearly worked hard to create three fine Self Catering units within the Main part of the old station building. The attention to detail is second to none, from the slippers and dressing gowns provided, the flowers on arrival down... More

My wife and 11 month old baby girl stayed in the Refreshment room and we all felt very comfortable from the moment we arrived. A high standard of finish at the accomodation and attention to detail meant we wanted and needed nothing that wasn't provided within the property. The black out blinds in the upstairs rooms meant Poppy settled easily... More

We stayed at the Old Tavistock Railway Cottages (Porters Office) last weekend as they were ideally situated for Tavi town centre and a wedding and reception to be held there. The cottages were delightful, we loved the decor and furnishings. All cottages have been beautifully renovated and restored to a very high spec. Well equipped and comfortable throughout. Hosts Colin... More
