The apartment was well placed, comfortable and very clean. Totnes itself is an interesting town, and is close to many attractions in the area. We used the short term car park which is very close and is free after 6pm. We then paid for one hour in the morning as we were always away by 9am! Although the dishwasher wasn’t working, Paul got it fixed the day before we left. Various cleaning materials were provided, but m…

Gorgeous apartment just a stones throw from the beach- we all enjoyed a morning swim each day in the super clear sea. Comfy beds and quality linen with a well stocked kitchen. We enjoyed lunch at the Billy Can and dinner at the local pub all within walking distance.

“Great weekend stay in a beautiful location – worth it for the views alone! The flat was warm, comfortable and clean with everything we needed. Paul was quick to respond and check in was very easy. Will definitely be back!”

We had a lovely stay at Spyglass and would definitely recommend it. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and very well equipped with great amenities. The views were the real standout, absolutely incredible looking out over the water and something we never got tired of. Everything was well prepared for our stay, with fresh, clean linen and plenty of towels provided, which made things very easy and comfortable. As me…

Torcross is a very special place and the cottage was great. The picture window was perfect for watching the gorgeous view and the seal swimming past. Listening to the waves on the stones as we fell asleep was so relaxing. We didn’t want to leave.

Extremely cosy and spacious cottage set in a beautiful setting. We felt at home straight away in the warmth decor and spent the perfect Christmas with the family. The host was very proactive and welcoming. I would strongly recommend Cedar cottage for families looking to explore Devon.

“Beautiful house and it had all we needed for a friends’ weekend away – everything we possibly thought of was there in the kitchen, lovely kitchenware, big table for communal meals, cosy lounge space. Quick walk to town and a shop and pub nearby. Will definitely book again”.

We had a really lovely stay here. The place itself was great and had everything we needed, and the hot tub was a brilliant addition — especially in the evenings. It made the whole trip feel extra relaxing. Would definitely recommend!

Great location & lovely cottage. We had an issue with no hot water. I am dissatisfied with the hosts response that it was because the hot water was on a timer as it doesn’t make sense that it wasn’t set to come on for the morning. I would assume this has now been rectified, but I would check before you book.
