We all loved this property. Exterior – the garden has a table with chairs and safe for children to play and for dogs Kitchen – has everything you need to cook. To ensure the fridge cools everything, ensure the cupboard door is left open, otherwise the heat will slow the fridge performance Living room – has everything you need and I assume it will be lovely in the winter with a fire. Bedrooms – are lovely and comfort…

Really lovely lodge with great hot tub. Dartmouth is a lovely village 5-10 mins drive away. Highly recommend – we had a great time.

Just returned from a 4 day break, the bungalow is modern, immaculate, a beautiful garden with views of the countryside, you have everything you need here, there is lots of literature to help you navigate Devon, maps, walks, best beaches etc which we found really helpful. The town and estuary are a few minutes walk away, I would recommend the crabshell inn on the estuary, great food and a good vibe.

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.

A long weekend break for eight “long term” friends!! Fantastic setting with lots to do. The house was superb and offered all the amenities we required. The wonderful Nextdoor church clock and chime were perfect and are sorely missed now that I have returned home. We all loved it.

This place was better than we expected and was very well prepared for our group that also had young children. The views are absolutely amazing and it is just a short stroll into the town. We would definitely return.

The instructions to getting to and into the house were straightforward and easy to follow. The turn into the drive from the main road is very tight but our estate made it ok. The house is beautiful inside with plenty of space in the living areas and kitchen, which has everything you need. There are lovely wooden beams throughout and the living room has a large cosy corner sofa and large smart TV. The log burner look…

“Absolutely amazing place – such a unique and beautiful place to stay. The Captain’s Cabin exceeded our expectations. The bonus was being able to go downstairs into Alf-Rescos cafe and have wonderful breakfasts from 7am – which meant we could set off early on our walks. I’d really recommend this place. It’s fabulous. The host was extremely helpful and responsive. A five star review from us and we can’t wait to go ba…

“We have stayed in many holiday homes and this is definitely one of the best. The cabin is beautifully decorated with so much attention to detail. It was warm and cosy for our Easter break and I can imagine that in the summertime with full use of the deck and meadow above it will be gorgeous. Comfortable beds, spotlessly clean, well stocked kitchen, spacious and homely in a beautiful location. I wholeheartedly recom…
