We had such a lovely time at this house. The setting is breathtaking. The location is great. We hiked to both beaches, and to the small cove that is not accessible by cars. Our kids had a blast. Highly recommend.

Great little cottage. Nice and cool downstairs in the extreme heat. Loved the garden at the end of the path. Nice and quiet. Ayrmer Cove a little gem. Handy parking with the garage a short distance down the road. Took a gamble on this one as we had not visited this part of Devon before but turned out to be a great stay. Thanks.

Its incredibly cosy, the bed was very comfy, fabulous shower, beautiful bath, (needs a blind replacing above the bed. For someone like me who sleeps better with the light shut out) Quirky, going down to bed 😊 Great that it…

We had a lovely stay in this apartment. It was beautiful and clean and in a very convenient location as the town centre was walking distance as well as other attractions such as the castle! The only thing was that parking was challenging as there is a road closure just outside the flat. Otherwise, perfect! Thank you
