We stayed here for a week with our whole family. There was room for toddlers to play inside and out and we liked the garden and patio space The house is close to lots of great beaches and we hope to visit again

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.

A really big house that was full of everything we needed, such peaceful country surroundings yet close to the towns and places we wanted to visit. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing few days away to see in the new year! Place was spotless! Having a Christmas tree was such a lovely surprise! Enjoying the hot tub on a cold evening was great! The lodge was beautiful! We would love to come back! Will miss waking up in the morning and looking at the view of the golf course. Thank you Paul & Co.

Had a wonderful stay at this place in Dartmouth. Location was the standout. 2 minute walk to shops and restaurants, 5 minutes to parking and to the waterfront. Clean, well-stocked, and great communication from Paul. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Just a great cottage, superb views, spotlessly clean throughout, due to the storm things took a bashing , sadly the diversion through Kingsbridge was a major inconvenience.

Sunday lunch at the cricket inn at beesands was outstanding but you m…

Beautiful location with wonderful views. Ideally situated with local amenities conveniently situated. Not easy for those with walking difficulties as there are steep steps down to the property. Does need some attention to the interior and exterior decoration as it is showing signs of wear. That aside this is a very nice home to enjoy whatever the weather with picture windows and rap around terraces

We stayed at the lodge as a family of four in April and had a fantastic experience. The lodge was immaculate, beautifully equipped, and exceptionally comfortable – especially the superking bed. Despite some ongoing resort development, it was peaceful with stunning views over the golf course and hills. We enjoyed the hot tub, patio furniture, and access to the nearby hotel’s pool facilities. The location was ideal fo…

The Cartshed is in the most beautiful setting down a farm track with a stunning view, despite being near the house it has a little secluded garden space. It is well equipped and a very comfortable space with beautiful features and lovely decor. We very much enjoyed our stay.

“A fabulous stay – the cottage is a good size with everything you need. Very very comfortable, lovely leather sofas and a wood burner for the evenings. Separate kitchen and eating area – 2 double bedrooms with classic bath in one and a shower room. High chairs and stair gates available. Very clean and warm. Parking for 2 cars – play area for kids – and very easy to get to local attractions and towns. One of the best…
