Very well appointed property, lovely big window in lounge, the bed was very comfortable, we felt relaxed in the property which was important as we didn’t have the best weather with a couple of very rainy days. However we did enjoy getting out and visited some of the lovely local beauty spots including Salcombe, Dartmouth and Totnes. Hosts were friendly and helpful.

Woodside View
We stayed at this property for a week in mid June and had a marvellous stay.
The apartment is lovely and the views of the surrounding countryside are idyllic.
The owners gave us a really helpful introduction and all the appliances worked well.
The location is ideal for visits to Dartmouth- (great for meals, ferries and historic views)and surrounding area - we spent several days walking sections of the South West Coastal path which is terrific, and visited several very interesting National Trust properties which are very nearby. It’s a truly beautiful part of the country and we absolutely recommend the apartment and the location for an amazing holiday

Absolutely lovely place to stay
This was such a lovely place to stay, it had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. And the views through the front window were wonderful. It’s in such a central location and easy to get anywhere. The communication from the Karen and David was excellent, and some great recommendation on places to eat (the pub at Blackawton is a 10 minute walk and is well worth a visit but best book).. wholeheartedly recommend.

A lovely cottage with stunning views through the featured floor to ceiling window - our favourite was watching a trio of hawks circling the fields. Property was immaculate and clean, and the hosts are friendly and helpful. Close to numerous seaside walks, quiet villages and great restaurants. Highly recommended!
