    “It would be difficult to improve on the location - especially at high tide!”

    The facilities were as described, and our stay (four adults and a four year old) was comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable. Our only cavil was the check in/out times - difficult to get everything packed and loaded by 9am - luckily, we have a long-standing friend who is a Shaldon resident, and we were able to breakfast with her. We would certainly consider booking again.
