Would'nt hesitate in rebooking.

“Delightful cottage right on the water with great estuary views.”

Comfortable and super-clean. Very well stocked with cutlery, crockery and kitchen equipment and plenty of cleaning products so we could keep everything hygienic. Local pubs are good. Didn't quite realise that The Quay is a cobbled footpath rather than a road.

Mrs Dymond October 2020

“Our second visit and booked for next year, says it all.”

Delightful cottage, high standard of cleanliness and comfort. Quiet location with ever changing views over estuary. Love using the trailway for walking, running and cycling. Great access to Exmouth and Exeter. Highly recommend,

“What a wonderful house on the water.”

The photos don’t do it justice. Such a lovely house with amazing views, I miss waking up and opening the curtains to see what the weather’s doing and where the water is. It was lovely to meet and chat to the owner too. Tina has thought of everything that her guests may need and even asks guests for feedback of what can be included to improve their stay. We had some lovely walks, my husband loved the cycling. Our favourite meal was at the Redwing Inn, lovely pizza from pizza van on Wednesday at the Village Hall. Puffing Billy also very nice and a lovely walk. We will definitely be back, our favourite holiday home so far. Thank you Tina.

“This was our second visit to Searles, as always we had an amazing time in this lovely cottage.”

The cottage is very special place, warm, cosy, clean and views from every window in the cottage the were ever changing of the lovely estuary. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets, everything you need for a wonderful stay in this lovely friendly village. A wonderful community, several pubs, cafe, shop, Church and a rail station. The cottage was perfect for our dog, the village was very dog friendly with many safe places to walk him. The owner as always is the most lovely person, there if you need her but privacy if you need it. Searles is a good bolt hole in Devon, this wonderful county with fantastic beaches and places to visit . We plan to go again as soon as we can. Thanks again to the owner for sharing your wonderful home with us and the flowers and goodies you left us .This cottage ticks all the boxes for us and we rate it full marks

“Despite storm Dennis we had a great week.”

Lovely cottage, friendly village with nice pub (there are 3 but we used the Swan) and local shop. Views are amazing from all the windows in the cottage. Situated down a little cobbled street so you have to unload about 50m from the front door but it is not an issue, we then parked our car in the car park and didn’t use it again. Easy walking even in wet weather to Exmouth and Topsham with the option of getting the train one way if the weather turns bad. A perfect escape with the dog in February.

Mr Holland January 2020

“We had a lovely stay at Searles - very comfortable and a great location.”

The only thing we hadn't anticipated was the lack of a freezer or freezer compartment. But a big thank you to the owner who did so much to make our holiday enjoyable - we were made to feel really welcome. We would certainly like to return to Searles !

“IF you need a definition of perfect this is it”

We have just returned home after spending two of the most glorious weeks in this beautiful cottage by the sea, what a little gem! Cottage beautiful with everything you could think off, we have never been made to feel so welcome, even the dog. Definitely one holiday we would do again and one were we could have stayed longer, just "perfect."
