Spotless house and well equipped with everything we needed, but not so full that u couldn’t store anything which I’ve found with a lot of previous places. Lovely space and nicely furnished. Garden was beautiful, not that we got to enjoy it because of the weather unfortunately. Great parking on drive and brilliant to have the utility space for wet coats and wellies. We walked down the hill into town and to the lovely…

“We had a fantastic 4 night stay at Stargazy. The house itself is beautifully decorated and well equipped and accommodated the 7 of us, and 3 cars, really well. The view from the sitting room, kitchen and front balcony is lovely, and on the wet and windy days we encountered the log burner was a very welcome addition. The terraced garden is immaculate with a very large top deck and the brilliantly designed Stargazy A…

We had a lovely stay at the cottage. Beautiful part of Devon, great local pub and a very cosy and comfortable place to stay. Spotlessly clean and exactly as described.

What an amazing place, surpassed our expectations and this is the first time I have written that in a review. The accommodation was much bigger than expected and ideal for our group. The children and big adults loved the table tennis and darts board. Beds were comfy and it was stylish in the way it was kitted out. We loved it and highly recommend.

A very clean, comfortable and relaxing space about a 15 min stroll into Dartmouth. The house was spotless and well stocked and the sleeping accommodation is flexible. Dartmouth is fabulous – a beautiful place with lots of great restaurants and things to see and do. Parking is tight but workable with one small car across the driveway and another parked parallel to it.

Amazing location and breathtaking views. Fully equipped to a high standard with everything you need .. apart from a cheese knife and a full length mirror. Spotlessly clean interior and well maintained. External steps and patio were very slippy and the patio furniture tired. Would have loved an earlier standard check in time or the opportunity for luggage store.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Hideaway in Ringmore. The thatched cottage is an absolute delight, cleverly converted to the highest standard of design, decor and comfort. Equipped with all you need for a perfect stay with a few added twists to make it a home from home. Even a little pretty rear garden with table and chairs. The charming village pub, unfortunately closed Mondays and Tuesdays is a short walk aw…
