“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…

We had a fantastic stay at Wells Park Barn. Paul was a great host and provided all the information needed for the stay and responded quickly to any questions. The barn was lovely and provided plenty of room for two families. Very comfortable and in a stunning location.

“Beautiful little place. Very short walk to Brixham harbour and a great location to explore South Devon. We had some lovely evening walks down to the harbour and we found the location ideal, even with my aunt and some mobility issues (walking stick).

The apartment is very well equipped with very comfortable beds and nice bedding and also hot and powerful showers. A couple of issues, a handrail is needed for the second flight of stairs up to the apartment and also the s…

On a very steep hill, so loading and unloading can be challenge. Great views and location. No parking nearby.

We had a wonderful stay at this stunning lodge! The property is hi-spec, very modern, and impeccably designed, offering plenty of space and comfort for our family. The golf and recreation facilities were excellent, and the location was ideal for a relaxing yet active break. The hosts were friendly and attentive, ensuring everything was perfect. Highly recommend for those seeking a luxurious, well-equipped getaway!

This house was perfect for our stay! We were 2 adults and 4 kids so the 5 bedrooms worked well (one is on the ground floor). There is loads of space and we felt right at home!

Had a wonderful stay at this place in Dartmouth. Location was the standout. 2 minute walk to shops and restaurants, 5 minutes to parking and to the waterfront. Clean, well-stocked, and great communication from Paul. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.
