“Tembridge house is such a lovely, peaceful and relaxing place to visit.”
Perfectly situated to visit both North and South Devon coasts within an hour.
The property itself felt cozy even though it was really very spacious. All mod cons... I now need to replace our boring fridge with the one they have!!
Our little dog Gus had a lovely time exploring the large garden and the cows came to the bordering fence each day to say hello.
The welcome pack was great. The Victoria sponge was perfect!!
Our friends wanted to book again for New Year as soon as we got back home, so that speaks volumes.
