We stayed here for 2 nights at the start of March & had a wonderful stay. The descriptions and pictures do not do this house justice & the master bedroom and outside seating even had a sea view! We travelled as a girl group of friends but all agreed we would be back with our partners and families.

Absolutely gorgeous flat, brilliantly located in the centre of Totnes. Loved sitting in the sunny living room & kitchen! Bed & pillows were super comfy. I would have appreciated handsoap in the bathroom, and cooking oil in the kitchen, being provided. Would happily stay here again

We stayed for a couple of nights to break up our trip to Cornwall. A very peaceful location, right in the heart of a forest. Yes the lanes are narrow on route, but that’s how it always is in this part of the world. The lodge was spotless and very roomy for our family of 5. The outside space was a nice spot to relax in the warm evenings. Only here for a couple of days but managed to visit Blackpool Sands and Bantham …

We had a really lovely stay at Galions quay. The house is beautiful and immaculately appointed. Its location is perfect for being close to Dartmouth town but also just removed enough to be quiet. We especially loved being near to Dartmouth castle and the coves for swimming. The house itself has everything we needed and Paul was a great host. We’d stay there again without question.

Our stay at the cabin was really nice. Paul gave us detailed directions to get there. The cabin had everything you needed to make the most of your stay.

This place is in an amazing location right next to the sea, couldn’t get any closer. Lovely accommodation with everything you need for a relaxed and enjoyable stay. Gorgeous walks on the door step, incredible views and great pubs and restaurants would highly recommend. Thanks Paul for our amazing stay. Would definitely return.
