Had a great time at Dart Lookout – it’s in a great part of town and had garage parking which was a huge bonus. Beautiful home with beautiful views. Would definitely stay here again.

“We (my sister, brother-in-law and myself) have thoroughly enjoyed our all too brief stay in your property.

I was fitter back then! If we ever get the chance we will thoroughly recommend this delig…

What an absolutely fantastic location, literally ON the estuary with insane views. We arrived in the dark (which was our fault!) and wasn’t ideal but once we found our way to the shack it was everything we hoped it would be and more. Firstly the shack was warm, homely and immaculately clean – it…

Cedar house was absolutely perfect. We visited as a family of 8, 6 adults and 2 small children. The house was absolutely spotless, well furnished and had everything we needed. We genuinely could not have been happier with our stay, I would highly recommend.

Lovely apartment in a great location. Really enjoyed our stay. The mattresses and pillows are super comfy so great nights sleeps experienced by all of us. The bathroom has one of the best showers I have ever used. Great pressure. Totally recommend this apartment and would love to stay here again.

“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…
