Superb location

Delightful home and what a location! Minor gripe would have been handy to know that the home was more well equipped than advertised re: linen, condiments, etc. We only wished we could have stayed longer.

Great location from the beach

We loved this property and would stay again. Had everything you need and was close to the beach. We had bikes and rode into town but you could walk if you were happy to take your time.

Comfortable home for beach getaway

Very clean and comfortable home. Everything you could need - great kitchen, laundry, comfy beds. Teen kids were happy to chill out in the upstairs lounge area. Small enclosed back garden for our little dog. A 5 minute walk to the beach. Heating in every room was great for our winter break. Very happy with our visit.

Relaxing family weekend

A great house, with all the homely comforts including great matresses on beds and everything we could need. House definitely big enough to comfortably fit a large family/group. Dog friendly which meant my dog could come along and enjoy the beach which she absolutely loved. Dog friendly beach straight over the road too. Great location to the beach and only a 30min walk into Torquay main area. Would definitely stay here again
