We really enjoyed our stay at the woodland lodge, lovely inside and very clean and had everything we wanted. Outside was beautiful, a nice decking area with seating surrounded by trees. It was so peaceful away from everything, all you could hear was the sound of the river nearby and the birds.

Fabulous setting right by the beach. Stargazy was very well equipped. Especially the kitchen. Beds, bathrooms and lounge were excellent. Added bonus was lots of board games to play. Outside bar and bbq area was fun with wonderful views. Even managed a bbq as the weather was very good. Would definitely say again.

Peartree Lodge is a brilliant place to stay! The house is bright, well equipped and perfectly placed for exploring the beaches and beauty spots of South Devon. We would highly recommend it to anyone, especially families. This was our second stay and we’ll be sure to come back and visit again!

Very clean apartment right in the town center. 2 bathrooms, which is always convenient for a family with teenagers. It seems there was a change of parking regulations, so we had to park our car in the Park & Ride up the hill, and then take the free shuttle down to the coast. This worked absolutely fine for us, as once you are there, you are “downtown”. Location is quiet considering its central location, but be aware…

“We loved the Hen House and it was spotless. It was perfect for our family of 4 and would easily and comfortably host 3 kids with parents. We had amazing weather and spent several days at Bantham Beach, a day at Start Point and a day at Woodlands theme park. The farm was great fun for the kids – they saw newborn calves, collected duck eggs and climbed hay bales with Albert. Thank you – we had the most fantastic stay…

Lovely place and very well located. Comfortable and really well looked after. Will book again when we head back. Lovely property! Been coming down to Strete and Dartmouth for about 25 years or so, and it was by far the nicest spot we’ve stayed in!

“Thank you for sharing your wonderful place with us, we loved our stay and will be booking again! The cabin was fantastic, really well equipped and beautifully decorated, and in a tranquil location – very peaceful but also close to the stunning beaches of Slapton and Blackpool. Everything you could need was provided in the cabin, and we were delighted to find some little treats when we arrived, as well as some pumpk…
