The Retreat @ The Old Smithy is located perfectly for Gaia Spa @ Boringdon, Dartmor & with Plymouth city centre only 10 minutes away. The Retreat is a quirky and spacious home-from-home and we welcome guests to come and enjoy our corner of the world. There are three bedrooms, a living/dining room, a breakfasting kitchen and two bathrooms. There is off road parking for one car (with plenty more free parking in the area) and a small garden area for guests to enjoy.
The Retreat is a perfect base for visiting the historic ocean city of Plymouth and for touring Devon and Cornwall. It is very close to several wedding venues including: St Elizabeth's House, Boringdon Hall Hotel, Boringdon Golf Club, Elfordleigh Hotel and Country Club, Saltram House, Hareston Manor, Dartmoor Zoo (from the book/film 'We Bought a Zoo"!), Moorland Hotel and Welbeck Manor. There is lots to see and do nearby:- Golf: Boringdon, Elfordleigh and Sparkwell National Trust: Saltram, Plymbridge, Dewerstone, Wembury Beach (7m) Dartmoor Zoo, Becky Falls, Pixies Holt, Dartmoor Prison Museum. For rainy days, there is a large public pool within walking distance, Plymouth Ski and Snowboard Centre, The acclaimed National Maritime Aquarium and the new museum and art gallery, The Box.
