My partner and I booked this lodge as a last minute get away as we wanted something remote but with easy access to local towns with pubs and supermarkets nearby for essentials. The location was nothing short of perfect with privacy of the lodge ensuring we had a peaceful time to ourselves. The rear where the hot tub did overlook the golf course, which if you don’t mind the occasional good morning from a golfer passi…

We had a lovely stay and couldn’t fault the accommodation. The place was spotlessly clean, beautifully presented, and exactly as described. It felt welcoming and comfortable from the moment we arrived. The location was perfect, peaceful and relaxing, yet convenient for getting out and about. The bed was very comfortable, the kitchen well-equipped. Our host was friendly, responsive, and made everything very easy from…

The Soltice is located in such way that we had beautiful River Dart views and great access to the town. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds very comfortable. We truly enjoyed our stay and would gladly book it again in the future.

One of the most beautiful places we ever stayed in. Right from entering the appartment we felt at home – the nook in which the bed is is so cosy, the open kitchen makes it feel so homely. The views over the harbour are unbelievable, because you are so high up you feel like you are on top of the world. The interior is so cute and we especially loved the big table to work from. When they say private it really is priva…

Spectacular waterside view. Unique. Comfortable beds. Well equipped kitchen. Very clean. We had a really wonderful time. I would recommend taking some of your own logs, there was only enough for 1 short fire for a 2 night stay.

A beautiful apartment with lovely views across the estuary. The walk from the town is about 10mins and fine without a lot to carry. It’s quite a long incline. Not steep though. And it’s definitely worth it when you get there! Super comfortable and the photos don’t do it justice! We had a great stay and would certainly book it again. The park and ride is very efficient and we left the car there and used the many mode…

We had a very enjoyable break at Spindrift. It was clean and comfortable with lots of space for a family of 7. The bungalow was situated in a quiet area and the beach and village were within walking distance. I would definitely recommend the bungalow to friends and family

We had a fantastic stay and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The property was exactly as described—spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully set up with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It felt like a home away from home from the moment we arrived. Communication with the host was excellent throughout—helpful, and quick to respond, which made everything smooth and stress-free. It’s i…
