Sou West

We love sour stay at Sou west.

The property is lovely with stunning views. It is well equipped with everything you need for your stay. The location is great as you are only 10 minutes from Kingsbridge and Salcombe. Hope cove is really quiet. The only thing I think was missing was a little welcome hamper with milk etc which we have always had anywhere else we have stayed but the property is still 10/10

Overall the property is lovely, well equipped and clean, other than the BBQ being unusable as it was so dirty.

I'd say the listing didn't meet our expectations on a couple of major points. Firstly, while the property is technically walking distance to the beach, the main road is unsafe to walk along, particularly with children and the walking path isn't easily accessible or child friendly. We were under the impression we would be able to walk to the beach, however the reality is we had to drive as it was the only feasible and safe way to get the children there. Secondly, the ensuite shower was unusable despite being told it was safe to use before arrival. Thankfully it was an adult that tried the door as glass was then scattered on the floor, had this been one of the children it would have been very unsafe. The issue was known prior to our arrival and took a week to fix. We were offered a £100 refund but having paid almost £2,500 for the property this felt disproportionate as we only had 1 shower to use between 8. Had we known this on booking we wouldn't have booked this accommodation.

Great house in a good location.

Very comfortable & clean & the back garden with the views just tops it off. We stayed with 6 adults & a child with a small dog & loved every minute. Lots of room in the house & the kitchen was great. Would 100% book again if staying in this location

Amazing house in a great location.

House feels very homely for a large house and comfortable for us as a family of 7 and the garden was fantastic for the kids and for the dog. The bedrooms were great and all fixtures and fittings were of a high standard. Great communication and we thoroughly enjoyed our 5night stay over new year. Thanks guys. Steve and Rach

Great holiday - lovely house, presented as described on web with lots of nice touches: sheets/washer tablets etc.

- would certainly rebook if chose to revisit the area. By way of feedback, only minor comments would be that the kitchen would benefit from some sharp knives (sharpened provided but too far gone) and main bedroom would benefit from a mirror to use in the room for make up/hair drying.

Absolutely loved our stay at Sou West, with the only thing that could make it better being a hot tub, although we do appreciate that the maintenance in the property would be a nightmare.

Apart from that it was fantastic.

We enjoyed a fabulous holiday at Sou West.

The accommodation is excellent. It has everything needed for a delightful holiday . The location is perfect , just a 10 minute walk to Hope Cove or 20 minute drive to Salcombe and other wonderful beaches . The view over the fields and the sea is wonderful especially early in the morning and later in the evening. We were a group of 6 adults and a toddler and we agreed that a hot tub would make this holiday accommodation perfect.

Fantastic house we thoroughly enjoyed our stay Would highly recommend

This is a fabulous property with gorgeous top of the range kitchen and bathrooms/ shower rooms.

Really comfortable beds and bedding and Lounge furniture with huge tv. Plus lovely outside furniture.Loads of space for three cars. The house is in a really good position, the beach is walkable down the footpath through the churchyard and field the lane leading g to the coast path. Much nicer than walking down the narrow road to Hope cove. The garden is very dog friendly, ours enjoyed views of fields with rabbits and pheasant through the fence! A few items missing or would have been good to have: no cutlery basket in the dishwasher (?!!) it would have been good to have a stool by the front door to make it easier to put on and remove shoes. Also no dessert dishes only cereal bowls. But overall WOW!

Lovely property in great location.

Very comfortable stay, well equipped kitchen and lovely comfortable beds. Beautiful views across the fields and down to the sea. Would definitely recommend Sou West

great property we loved it.

the instructions in the welcome pack for recycling are out of date. the two downstairs bedrooms lounge and conservatory really need attention. often we couldnt lock them!!! no welcome pack was very disappointing given what we paid. not even any milk. the gas fire wouldnt work either. hope these are helpful comments

We had a fabulous Christmas family break here.

The house is beautiful & kept immaculate. Left us Champagne, chocolates & fudge which was a lovely kind gesture. Short walk to the sea at Hope cove plus short drive to Salcombe where you have some lovely restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it to anyone. We will

Well what a week we had in the most beautiful home.

I couldn’t recommend it enough. It’s fully equipped for everything. We had a wonderful week making lovely memories. We had an issue with the boiler so we rang up and it was sorted within the day. We will defo return. We have looked for Easter but it’s booked up. Obviously popular. The house is a credit to its owners. Thank you

Wonderful property, clean, well stocked.

Quiet location, beautiful views. Only negatives were bbq not cleaned and some of the strip lights on the patio are failing. We had a wonderful stay. Big shout out for the mature gentleman next door who bought us round croissants, wine and beer.

We had a wonderful stay, property was spacious and very comfortable.

It was equipped to a high standard, with lots of nice touches. We were a party of 4 adults plus my toddler grandson and found there to be plenty of space for all of us. The house is a short walk into Hope Cove which has a few nice pubs and restaurants as well as the beach. We would definitely stay here again, we love the area so we'll be back!

We loved our stay at Sou West.

The house was perfect for us, lots of space for everyone and the house position was ideal for the beach and exploring the area. Highly recommended and thank you.

Very lovely property, close to a picturesque beach and within walking distance of a pub (downhill easier than uphill).

Facilities are very good. The only thing, which has been mentioned before, are the windows that have double glazing panels that have blown. The kitchen window and 2 panels in the sun room. Obviously this spoils the enjoyment of the view, which is stunning. Eventhough, the property is well located and I would highly recommend it.

Nice property and excellent location.

Ideal for a family with children; plenty of space, garden and the beach is nearby. You can also visit Dartmouth and surrounding area for boat trips and steam train ride. Totnes small market town with riverside walk and further afield Buckfastleigh Abby. Overall a nice holiday.

Sent the owner.

First of all, great property, in a great location and a premium rental product. I've been coming to Hope Cove for 50+ years and really loved staying here. I'm going to split the feedback into a snag list and stuff, which I think it would be appropriate to have in such a high-quality rental property. Before I go on to that, the quality of the appliances and kitchen facilities and just the general decor, was very much appreciated. Additional Items Needed. Oven gloves - these are essential. No bins in rooms. No washing up equipment. Insufficient tumbler glasses for 8 people. Snag List. Upstairs wardrobe handle came of in our hand as not attached with screws! Bathroom window upstairs very stiff to open. Front downstairs bedroom radiator thermostat noisy. Cracked cafetiere (luckily we bought our own!) Fridge water container not prefilled so took 2 days to make ice. (Not a fault, but would have been nice to have the ice available earlier in our stay.) Kids hand and finger marks over doors by dining table. (being really picky here but thought would feed this back.) Finally the blown windows and patio doors. I really appreciate that you have invested a lot already, but to have the view interrupted by the blown double glassed units spoils the view out of what is otherwise a premium property and was not expected. Finally, looking at the instructions to hand the property back, there are no large bin liners to put the bed linen in, which is what we have been instructed to do. Thank you for renting us your home. We have treated it as our own and look forward to coming back again soon. Kindest regards, Andy Cox and Family.

A stunning property in a fantastic location.

You can walk very easily into the village. Sou West is modern and spacious with beautiful countryside views. You can even see the sea! Would highly recommend.

Lovely property in an area we know well from many years of holidays, but needs better maintenance.

Fly infestation (many dead on the floor), Clothes were left in a draw, paintbrushes out in the utility. The heating thermostat deosn't work. No wifi in one of the bedrooms (teenage angst ensues!) Dripping inbetween the downstairs bedroom... I sent some more complete feedback to Coast & Country. Could be a great house, but just felt a little unloved in the detail areas.

Really well equipped, lovely comfortable holiday home which had everything we needed for a family stay at Christmas.

Great location with country views from the garden and easy walk to the beach. Only niggle was the lack of instructions for waste disposal and recycling bins. No baby/toddler equipment provided but actually if you take cot, stairgate and high chair with you as we did, the house is very child friendly.

Sou West was perfect for our family get together and birthday celebration.

Very comfortable, everything was provided and the whole house is so well equipped. We found the property really easily and the arrival worked as planned with key safe. Found the Wi-Fi a little tricky to get established. Had to reboot several times. The kitchen equipment and all around the house was excellent. Beds comfy, bathrooms excellent. There was no information on how to dispose of waste. We segregated everything and left in porch, but didn't know what day to put out on road for collection. We know the area quite well from previous visits but this part of Devon is absolutely stunning. Visitors to Sou West will not be disappointed.

We very much enjoyed our time at Sou West.

The space was great and the kitchen and all the littles extra’s were a lovely added bonus. The only slight negative was we were unable to find a key for the two downstairs bedroom windows which made it very stuffy at times. We by chance found a key just under one of the sofas so was able to open them for the last two days. Great outside space with beautiful views of the countryside and even a sea view. If there was a hot tub as well it would be the cherry on top

We stayed at Sou West in August with seven adults, a toddler and a baby.

The property is spacious and in a lovely quiet setting and we had room to park four cars which was great . The view from the back is so relaxing ….. ,watching the sheep graze in the field,breathing in the fresh clear air ,and catching a glimpse of the sea. The kitchen / dining area is spacious and well equipped and there is a welcome dishwasher and utility room! The sitting room is comfortable and has a huge TV . We slept upstairs in the super king room …..definitely the best bedroom though the other three all have king size beds and are comfortable. There were a few things that could be improved. I kept looking above the sink in the bathroom but there was no mirror there! The disposal of rubbish was an issue since the instructions were not very clear. There were only a couple of black bin liners and no recycling bags available …fortunately we had brought extra black bags with us. A workman next door was very helpful in explaining where to put the black bags but said they are only emptied every two weeks on a Friday. There were some in there when we arrived and when we left the bin was almost full and not due to be emptied for another week. Also it is important to note that there are no facilities for toddlers and babies. We took our own high chairs, small mattress and travel cot. The property is quite highly priced and a bit more than we would usually pay but it was peak season and we all had a very enjoyable family time staying there.

A beautiful property in a stunning location.

My grown up family of 5 had a lovely stay.

The property was well proportioned and we had plenty of space to relax both in and outside the decking. The 15-20 minute walk to Hope Cove with its good local pub was welcome and a short drive into Salcombe. Would highly recommend it for a family stay.

Wonderful place!

The beds are sooo comfy, and the cottage had everything you could want, a well equipped kitchen and outside area. Wifi was also very good, I would consider having a longer break and working from here a couple of days next time. Just a short walk down the hill to peacful Hope Cove, with a couple of nice eateries and a safe place to swim. For us there was nothing we would change, we loved it.

Very well equipped and appointed house.

Quality of furniture, fixtures and fittings was appreciated. Ideal for larger families. Location close to Hope Cove is a definite bonus.

A lovely property, very comfortable and spacious and a lovely outside space for the dog to enjoy and for us to enjoy the views.

In a great location. We had an amazing week and will be back again soon. A really well equipped property - the only additional things we would have liked to make it perfect would be been bath/shower mats for the bathrooms, a clothes airer and an outside brush to brush the patio.
