“We loved the Hen House and it was spotless. It was perfect for our family of 4 and would easily and comfortably host 3 kids with parents. We had amazing weather and spent several days at Bantham Beach, a day at Start Point and a day at Woodlands theme park. The farm was great fun for the kids – they saw newborn calves, collected duck eggs and climbed hay bales with Albert. Thank you – we had the most fantastic stay…

If you want a truly special experience, book this house. From the moment you enter, you’re met with the most spectacular views of Dartmouth and the river. The interior is beautifully designed and of very high quality – it’s also really comfortable and welcoming. It’s a short walk to the castle ferry which takes you by boat into Dartmouth. Paul was great at responding to any questions we had and we would definitely b…

A hideaway above the hustle and bustle of Dartmouth. Great views and super comfy mattress! The apartment is totally original and quirky. Loved it. Paul has been really helpful from the initial booking and after check out. Easy parking either on the street or in the nearby car park. And the breakfast was delicious. Would definitely recommend.

“We had a great stay at this lovely little apartment. Great location in the heart of town, walking distance to the train station and lots of restaurants, pubs, cafes, and shops nearby. The apartment was very comfortable and had everything we needed for a short break. The bedroom was comfy and quiet, and the living/dining/kitchen area was a great place to relax and cook. The kitchen had a good range of appliances and…

What an amazing apartment! The views are stunning. The beds were great and everything was spotless. Long stay parking during the day was a bit tricky as the road to Warfleet is shut so it’s a long drive round but not a major problem for us. We had a brilliant stay and Paul was very helpful and responsive.

Positives: car park pass/comfortable bed/powerful shower. Suggestions: have a mirror near a power socket/reserve table at breakfast for guests (if guests give time for breakfast ‘slot’ table would be available to the public outside these times – we foolishly went down around 10am and would have faced a 30 min wait to be seated. My suggestion – get down by 7am, Alf Fresco is hugely popular with the public (right…

“Just a quick note to let you know that our stay at Pomeroy Cottage was Gold Standard! The property was perfect for us- location especially, facilities in the house, parking, information book in the house etc but the standard of cleanliness was absolutely outstanding! It really was the cleanest, tidiest and most well cared for property I have ever stayed in.

This home in Bigbury-en-Sea is fabulous and quite honestly could not be located better. Most definitely would stay here again. Thank you!

Great views. Well equipped. Comfy beds. Downside it’s on 4 floors with spiral stairs. Only 1 bedroom en-suite so the others tend to share 1 bathroom not ideal with 8 adults in the house. Water pressure not great. Needs black out curtains as rooms light at 5. Long trek to the kitchen from the road. Very narrow to get to the property. But we did have a good time.
