Torcross is the most beautiful place – even after the recent storm damage (and in fact the village needs supporting now more than ever) – in the most beautiful surroundings. This Airbnb is fantastic, with the most incredible view from the first floor window. Worth the price alone! It was such a joy sitting on the sofa watching the waves, both on sunny days and cloudy ones.

A group of four friends and I stayed there to celebrate my 30th birthday, and the experience was incredible from start to finish. We loved getting to know Devon and the property’s unique features; the hot tub was the perfect temperature and very clean, and the house had everything we needed. we were very happy and will certainly be back.

“Really charming cottage, exactly what you’d hope for from a country escape, the bathroom in the bedroom was the icing on the cake! The beams, the log fire, the little patio garden it was all so idyllic, we’ll definitely be adding to our list of favourites, thank you so much.”

home safely after a fabulous 5 nights at Lower Heywood. The apartment is beautifully kept and cosy. It has everything you need for a self catering break away. It is in a perfect central spot too. 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…

First class service from start to finish and the house, Wow, views to die for and finished to an excellent standard. Thank you I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you. From the moment we booked, the communication with you was excellent. You made the check-in process smooth and hassle-free, which was great. As for the property itself, first class, absolutely superb. We loved it, and I’ve already been looking…

“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!”

Fantastic stay here for my parents’ Christmas present. Beautifully kept property, that accommodated us all perfectly. Plenty of space for 7 adults to all live, socialise and enjoy. Couldn’t find a single fault and would recommended very highly. Would happily return again and again, and likely will. Thanks again!
