Pictures don’t do it justice! Beautifully decorated – attention to detail in every room. Thoughtful touches provided. Went as a family of 7 plus dog and plenty of room for us all to sit & not be on top of each other. Walking distance to the beach & the Italian just by the house is amazing – highly recommend. Dartmouth park & ride is about 10 min easy drive away making a lovely day out. Loved our stay & hope to retur…

Lovely place to stay. I became a regular at Seven Stars as it was really close. Convenient to everything. You do not need a car here. I even took the Tally Ho bus to Salcombe Beach.

We had an amazing stay at Stargazy . We stayed for three nights and the property was exactly as described and pictured. It’s a stunning location, moments away from Bigbury beach, and the Airbnb was stunning. It had beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The outdoor barbecue space was particularly wonderful as was the living room with its panoramic glass sliding doors facing out to …

What a truly breathtaking property. The pictures just don’t match up to the wow factor when you walk in. Of course the unbelievable views help , but the house itself is beautiful! Right on the river , we could have stayed on the balcony for the whole weekend just relaxing and enjoying the view. Location was fabulous, beds were comfortable, and the house was spacious and I loved how it was on different levels so you …

Apartment was spacious. A long one way system made finding the front of the building a challenge. The satnav takes you to the wrong side of the building. Apartment is before Hoyles garage oin the Lower Contour Road.
