What a fantastic property! The views are breathtaking and the apartment is very spacious. Paul was excellent and great at communicating. It was my mothers 70th birthday and I asked if I could send some balloons down and Paul was really happy to help, Had a great weekend- thank you!

A beautiful setting in Devon. The house sits on a gorgeous plot surrounded by rolling hills and a super garden. We had three families in the house, 6 adults and 7 children and there was plenty of space for us all to not feel on top of each other. Kitchen had plenty of pots and pans to cook and two large dining tables. The house is functional albeit a little tired but was clean and tidy. The only two little niggles i…

What a truly breathtaking property. The pictures just don’t match up to the wow factor when you walk in. Of course the unbelievable views help , but the house itself is beautiful! Right on the river , we could have stayed on the balcony for the whole weekend just relaxing and enjoying the view. Location was fabulous, beds were comfortable, and the house was spacious and I loved how it was on different levels so you …

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.

We had such a lovely time at this house. The setting is breathtaking. The location is great. We hiked to both beaches, and to the small cove that is not accessible by cars. Our kids had a blast. Highly recommend.

We had a great few days here as a family. The lodge itself was immaculate and well presented. A short walk down the hill to the restaurant, bar and spa facilities, which were also very good. The discount on food and spa was a bonus. There are only about half a dozen lodges, meaning it was very quiet and peaceful. The only negative was that you cannot easily walk from the site as it is located straight off of a busy …
