Really lovely home from home.

Fantastic for children, my son loved the toys in the living area and the fab children's bedroom. Perfect holiday stay for a family. And The Old Inn pub opposite was the cherry on top, lovely staff and great drinks and food.

A great place to stay with a lovely garden.

We visited with 2 dogs and we had plenty of space. Though it was June, the weather closed in and we stayed nice and warm inside! It is a 10 min bus or 40 min walk down to Salcombe, Bolberry Down is about 1.5 miles away down narrow lanes. No reserved parking, though the village hall car park is a 100m walk away, so not a problem at all. Two very minor things- the guide left in the property was out of date- referring to a local Co-op that is now an Asda, and also both of the toilet seats were very loosely attached.
