We knew the area and so it was the perfect base for us for both relaxing at Torcross with friends or on Slapton Sounds, or exploring nearby Dartmouth or Blackpool sounds.

Apartment was spacious. A long one way system made finding the front of the building a challenge. The satnav takes you to the wrong side of the building. Apartment is before Hoyles garage oin the Lower Contour Road.

We had a marvellous few days in Dartmouth. The Captains Cabin was queerly and had views to die for. Paul was a great host and responded promptly to messages. The cafe made breakfast easy and lived up to the reviews. Highly recommend the stay to anyone wanting something a bit different

“What a wonderful week we’ve had! The Hen House is spotlessly clean, perfectly equipped and brilliantly placed to explore beautiful South West Devon. Thank you for being such great hosts. The children have enjoyed farm life (especially seeing the baby calves, ducks, chickens, goats, cats and puppies!) We hope to be back soon!”
