This was my second stay and a first for some family members we brought along with us. Yet again, everyone was delighted with the property and its location and we would all loved to have stayed for longer! Paul responds in great time to any messages and is super helpful. We would absolutely stay again.

“We had a brilliant stay at the boathouse, the location is incredible and the views breathtaking! 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. I found the property more spacious than I was expecting and so plenty of room for 4 of you, we did find it a little challenging with our youngest daug…

What a great stay myself, my husband and two daughters had! We all felt at home straight away, the cabin had absolutely everything we needed and we couldn’t believe how beautifully it is decorated and furnished. The highlight for my daughter’s was toasting marshmallows on the firepit in the meadow. We visited Dartmouth, Salcombe, Kingsbridge, Bantham beach and Pennywell Farm. Paul was great at promptly responding to…

“Fabulous little ‘find’ in the heart of Dartmouth above a wonderful cafe serving incredible breakfasts! The room was clean & functional with seaside memorabilia, paintings & a comfy king size bed & the coffee & tea making facilities were a pleasing extra! The bathroom was like a tardis with a huge shower & served its purpose for our stay!”

“Just a quick note to let you know that our stay at Pomeroy Cottage was Gold Standard! The property was perfect for us- location especially, facilities in the house, parking, information book in the house etc but the standard of cleanliness was absolutely outstanding! It really was the cleanest, tidiest and most well cared for property I have ever stayed in.
