“It’s fair to say this has been one of the most relaxing holidays we have ever had, with a mixture of lazy days in the cottage, and lovely days out and about. We never book a 7 day break, but this is the start of something new for us. I would totally recommend this destination and either one of the beautiful cottages that are on offer. Thank you so much for some wonderful memories”

The property was as described and well equipped. Parking was excellent and under a canopy so out of reach of seagulls! We are very familiar with Kingsbridge which is good and central and has 2 supermarkets if not planning to eat out every day. In all we would certainly recommend it and plan to stay again in the future.

The Apartment is ideally located, 2 minutes walk from the shops and river. Parking permit for car park which is only 5 minutes walk away. Apartment is spotlessly clean. Kitchen has everything you could possibly need, with lots of cupboard space to store your own food, which isn’t always the case in rental properties. I stayed here with my daughter – great to each have own bedroom and bathroom. Owner Tracey met us wh…

Fantastic location and a beautiful sea view. Very comfortable beds and easy access to the beach and Start Bay Inn for food and drink. Great place to relax. Parking can be a bit of a juggle to get a free space but they do tend to turn over quickly so wasn’t a problem for us.

I had an incredible stay at this charming Airbnb apartment in Totnes! The location is perfect, right in the heart of the centrum, with easy access to local shops and cafes. The apartment itself is cozy, clean, and equipped with everything I needed to work remotely for the week. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, which made my workdays smooth and stress-free. The host was very responsive and flexible regarding check-in…

Beautifully appointed and very comfortable house. A few snags such as missing blinds in two bedrooms and only one wine glass provided (which we advised host of and they said they would sort so hopefully ready for next guests). We would recommend ear plugs for light sleepers as there is a clock tower in the village which rings every 15minutes 24hrs a day. Host was very responsive and brought us torches when we had a …

We loved staying for 2 nights in this great house in its beautiful location. It was very comfortable and we enjoyed the wonderful views. Nice walk into town and a pub close by. Fantastic! Thank you.
