“We had a great stay at this lovely little apartment. Great location in the heart of town, walking distance to the train station and lots of restaurants, pubs, cafes, and shops nearby. The apartment was very comfortable and had everything we needed for a short break. The bedroom was comfy and quiet, and the living/dining/kitchen area was a great place to relax and cook. The kitchen had a good range of appliances and…

Our third stay and always spotlessly clean and welcoming. It is in a quiet area but still within a short walk to town with the added bonus of a parking permit. Tracey is extremely helpful. Highly recommended.

The cabin was well appointed and equipped. Very comfortable and cosy. Quiet and peaceful setting, though not far from ‘Devon’s largest family theme park’, Dartmouth and other places of interest. Nice to be able to sit out and have a meal on the patio. The children enjoyed the DVD collection. Being a group of three adults and two children, having two bathrooms was handy. The complimentary bottle of wine was very welc…

Great location, so close to town and particularly Bayards Cove, everything is in walking distance. A fabulous find and a great stay was had by all! Would definitely recommend this stunning property, even in the depths of winter it would be…

Stunning location. The view is beautiful and so, so peaceful. Friendly cats, ducks, pigs, cows and sheep made this place extra special. Accommodation is clean, modern, comfortable and well equipped. Enjoyed complimentary Prosecco and coffee – thank you! So close to Slapton sands and Blackpool sands which are both beautiful. Approx 30mins to Salcombe which was holding their annual regatta during our visit so had lots…

We loved our stay at Pear Tree Lodge. The house has a bright open feel, a slightly unique layout on two levels (there are a few stairs to the bedrooms) which I loved, large bright rooms and had everything we needed for our stay. The garden was beautiful, with a stunning view over the fields and down to the estuary. And there was ample room for 2 cars on the drive. Also, we were happy to discover a second bathroom wh…
