We had a wonderful few days at the Boathouse – the location is second to none! To listen to the waves crash into the sea wall was the best! The pub was just right and the food was fantastic. All in all we had a relaxing and enjoyable weekend in a unique property with huge appeal. I hope to return soon.

We stayed here for 2 nights at the start of March & had a wonderful stay. The descriptions and pictures do not do this house justice & the master bedroom and outside seating even had a sea view! We travelled as a girl group of friends but all agreed we would be back with our partners and families.

Perfect location for exploring the area. Parked in Steamboat quay car park and you can pay by phone remotely so very easy. Comfortable home for two people.

Wonderful location, as it is accessed via a car park with a very short walk along a rivers edge & into a field – finding it in the dark was a challenge but another time it would be a breeze. Beautiful place on the water – at high tide you felt as you were almost floating in the water. And so wonderful watching how your view altered throughout the day – with boats & hydrofoils. Place is very nicely decked out with to…

“We stayed in Totnes for the weekend for a friend’s wedding a 15 minute drive away. The flat was beautifully decorated, clean and really welcoming. There was even a lovely speaker that we put music on so we could bop to music whilst getting ready. It was absolutely perfect for what we needed. It may have been really nice to have some tea bags and maybe condiments as buying a whole box of tea bags for 3 days seems ex…

The property was perfect for us and our two friends. Beautiful shared space and beautiful harbour views, two good bedrooms – one with stunning views and the other with good en-suite. Location also perfect as walkable to ferry, steam train station and local pubs. (Steepish hill and steps so as described not good for restricted mobility.)

Stunning location. The view is beautiful and so, so peaceful. Friendly cats, ducks, pigs, cows and sheep made this place extra special. Accommodation is clean, modern, comfortable and well equipped. Enjoyed complimentary Prosecco and coffee – thank you! So close to Slapton sands and Blackpool sands which are both beautiful. Approx 30mins to Salcombe which was holding their annual regatta during our visit so had lots…
