  • "The accommodation was perfect, plenty of space for our family and dogs."

    We all had really comfortable beds. The staff were very helpful and the pool was a great bonus. You are surrounded by fields and beautiful views so there’s plenty of local walks. I would highly recommend this place.

  • "I visited this property with my daughter and grandaughter 13, again this year during half term."

    It was a really lovely stay the bungalow in a great setting very relaxing peaceful and quiet. My only disappointment was the pillows which I did point out that they either needed a deep clean or replacement. Also I would say the chair and sofa arms need a good clean. Generally though the clean was perfect and of good quality. It’s just every now and again these things need a deep clean. Some previous client’s had not washed the cooking pans so we had to give them a clean before we could use them.

  • "The bar should be re-opened again even without the need for staff."

    Coffee, tea, beers, wine and shorts in cans or bottles can be supplied in vending machines so that the comfortable surroundings of the stable bar/coffee house can still be enjoyed as I have done here for many years in the past.

  • "Nice accommodation but maintenance need to check it thoroughly."

    Dripping tap, vacuum cleaner head had missing wheel making vacuuming difficult, no washing up brush or scouring pad, just a cloth. Unable to clean frying pan etc properly. The basin taps in toilet were wrong way round. Hot water was on the right. It did have a sticker by it but children may not read this.

  • "The place is very easy to get to and find … the bungalow very clean but is basic equipment in the kitchen."

    Swimming pool was occupied a lot and was being used by swimming school in the late afternoon. Cafe and restaurant is not open all the time and when was supposed to be open was closed for sick staff so can’t comment too much on the facility as we didn’t get to use it however the kids play area, courts and walking area was nice. Didn’t enjoy t walk to and from the car as you can’t park next to the property. But over all I would stay again for a cheap holiday away.

    A very nice site, with tennis court, pool and area to play football. It's also very well located - easy to get to South Devon's beaches, up onto Dartmoor and into Exeter.

    The only thing we missed ( very small but important) was salt and pepper! A few sachets or mills would have been appreciated.

    Thank you very much for your feedback, unfortunately we are unable to offer food as it is an self catering property. Property Owner

  • "Only fault was in the kitchen!"

    No casserole dishes to cook with, nor a very well equipped kitchen for a party of 6 and there was only 4 of us! We really struggled with not having enough large bowels ( only one) for keeping leftover food. The casserole dish is a must have! We stayed In the exact sane bungalow the year before and it catered well.. other than that it was a wonderful stay as always.

    Thank you for your feedback, we will pass this onto housekeeping to have a casserole dish put into this bungalow. Property Owner

  • "Thoroughly enjoyed the week in the bungalow it’s the second time all was good , except a maintenance man just turned up and explained he was changing the Electric box , so therefore the Electric would be off for a couple of hours , just as we started to cooking breakfast , he did say he would wait until we had finished cooking which made us feel rushed , this could have been sorted better if we had known he was attending that day , also the property was left open after he had finished ."

    Otherwise as before we have no problem with the property and the surrounding ding area , lots of great walks and amenities, we will be back all 6 of us . Thanks again …

    Thank you very much for your feedback, we are sorry you were not informed before the day that the contractor was doing electrical work, we will endeavour to make sure that this is done before people arrival, as you can appreciate the works had to be done. Again thank you for your feedback and look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner

    The results are amazing and we would give a 5 star rating for sure! Many thanks.

  • "Very basic."

    No extra pots and pans. No games or books if you take children. No leaflets of what you can do in the area. No instructions for anything. No visitors book. The water came in through the ceiling which had obviously been leaking for a while as there were wet patches on ceiling. The windows whistled in the wind. Saying that the property was very clean and comfortable as there were just two of us but would not want to go with a family.

  • "The property is excellent, clean, comfortable and in a wonderful location."

    The reception staff on site are very friendly and helpful. The only downside which I have seen in other reviews is the toilet is so small that even children have difficulty in getting in and out. For health and safety reasons this needs to be looked at urgently !!! If anyone suffered any kind of emergency, no one would be able to get in through the door without using an electric saw. A simple solution would be to reverse the door hinges and wooden stays so that the door opened outwards.

    Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are so pleased that you were happy with the property. We are aware that the toilet is on the small side and will certainly consider your suggestion or reversing the door hinges so there is more space. Thank you once again for your feedback and we hope to see you again in the future. Property Owner

  • "We have stayed here a few times when it was run by The Firefighters Charity and was a lot cheaper."

    There was a few things that could be improved. There was no bins in either the toilet or the bathroom. No lamps in the living room or two of the bedrooms. There was no information packs in the property. Also the grass outside the property was overgrown. If these things were improved we would likely stay here again.

    The door opens inwards so you have to squeeze between the toilet and basin to get in and open the door to its widest point to squeeze out. Anyone overweight and tall would not be able to use these facilities. The storage room next door was twice this size at least so would have been much more suitable. Toilet roll holder and towel roll holder were also broken.also a few more kitchen utensils and another frying pan would have been much appreciated. A truly lovely site friendly staff lovely pool and very peaceful. L,
