Mr Grosvenor
October 2020

“Owners made us feel so welcome and couldn't do enough for you.”

Property was lovely and clean and dog friendly with a secure garden. The welcome bottle of wine and cream tea was unexpected but a great surprise. Lovely quiet location which is what we were after. The only downside was the size of the tv in the living room, this was a portable tv and could have been larger. A part from that an excellent stay and lovely cottage will definitely recommend and will return.

Mr Joyes September 2020

“This cottage and it’s location is wonderful, it’s the best equipped property that we have stayed at.”

The garden is fully fenced so we had no worries about our little dog escaping the Pub is only 75 yds away and serves lovely food in a COVID 19 safe environment. The owners are very welcoming and helpful should you need help and the the cream scones and wine welcome pack were lovely.

- Mr Joyes, September 2020
Mrs Tweed August 2020

“Very comfortable and welcoming.”

Nice touch with cream tea, bottle of nice red and dog treats. Lots of places to visit and beautiful countryside. Manor Inn just a few paces away and nice food. In August book well in advance due to Eat out to help out offers.

Mrs Clarke July 2020

“This is our second stay at Teign View and we love it.”

The holiday home is lovely with everything you require. Walks from the doorstep and the pub literally round the corner. Joan and Colin the owners are lovely, making you feel very welcome. The wine and cakes on arrival are a lovely added touch. Thank you very much for another wonderful stay.

Mrs Falkingham July 2020

“Lovely, comfortable, well equipped cottage in a beautiful location.”

The owners were very welcoming and friendly, the complimentary bottle of wine and the delicious cream teas were very welcome after a long drive and much appreciated. The garden was lovely and well looked after, the patio was a proper sun trap for a glass of wine at the end of the day. The food at the local pub was delicious and only 3 minutes walk away, with friendly helpful staff and great service. Lots to do in the area within easy driving distance, or enjoy the peace and quiet of the cottage. We have never stayed in a cottage which was so well equipped, there was nothing that we could criticise and we would highly recommend Teign View for a lovely holiday. Thank you so much Joan and Colin for a lovely place to stay.

“We felt paying a extra £35.”

00 per week was a rip off.The storage heaters at the cottage can on in the early hours of the morning so by the time we got up the storage heaters was only warm.We keep the doors all shut as required so when we can back from the days out it was only warm.So leaving the evening quite cold.All that was there also a electric fire that was in the lounge part only.Not a very happy customer.

- Mr Sylvester, February 2020

The comfort of our guests and the enjoyment of their stay at our property is extremely important to us which is why we always meet with our guests on the day of arrival to make sure that they are happy. What a pity that you did not contact us with your concerns. If you don't tell us you have a problem, how can we respond and put it right for you? Our contact details are on the welcome card and also in the information file and your attention was drawn to this when we popped over to say hello shortly after your arrival, advising you to get in touch should you subsequently find anything unsatisfactory, have a problem with the property or need help with anything at all. We arrived at Teign View shortly after your departure on Saturday morning and found the heating units to be working efficiently and the property nice and warm, as it was when we checked again in the evening, so we are at a loss to understand why you were cold. It is such a shame if you feel that this spoiled your holiday when all you needed to do was to phone and speak with us and we would have come straight over to remedy the situation.

“Contacted by owners prior to arrival & met by Joan who showed us around & explained things.”

The clean, well maintained cottage was trimmed up for Christmas which was a nice touch, plus the 'goodies' were very well rec'd, thank you! Kitchen was large & well stocked with all the utensils etc required. Massive secure garden for dogs to sniff around in, plus large variety of wildlife visiting the bird feeders. Able to relax in the cosy sitting room with comfortable sofas. Noticed loads of games & books etc Double bed in main bedroom was very comfortable, lovely crisp bedding. Bathroom shower was hot & powerful with plenty of hot water. Very well placed cottage, was able to visit all around. All in all, a very nice and relaxing stay, would happily recommend Teign View.

Mr Croft July 2019

“Very friendly owners ensured we were all settled in providing tea coffee sugar milk a cream tea for our arrival and even treats for the dog.”

Cottage well equipped with lovely enclosed garden.Would happily recommend this to others

- Mr Croft, July 2019
Mr Wynn June 2019

“An excellent cottage which is within easy reach of lots of areas of interest.”

On arrival we were over the moon with a welcome of scones cream and jam, also they had gone to the trouble of ensuring that there was some milk for our arrival as the nearest shop is in the next village. Even though Joan had broken her foot she made arrangements to pop in to make sure we were happy and gave us an outline of the area a really well equipped cottage with a beautiful private garden to the rear of the property, even though the weather was not so good we were still able to get out and about a beautiful area and cottage well worth visiting

“This was our 2nd.”

visit and was just as good as the 1st.I do not think there is a better place to stay for a holiday.

- Mr Bennett, June 2019
Mr Whalley June 2019

“Lovely cottage with everything we needed.”

Joan and Colin were at the property to greet us on arrival and made us feel welcome. They were very prompt to get the shower repaired when we had a problem. It was very nice to have a very secure garden for our dog to run around in. From booking the cottage last year to the actual holiday we would give 10/10.

- Mr Whalley, June 2019
Mr Langrish June 2019

“Teign View was more than we expected.”

the accommodation was very clean & contained all that anyone would need, including cutlery, entertainment & the most peaceful & relaxing site that was a huge part of a most wonderful holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Teign View & will definitely recommend it to our Friends.

Mr Dyson March 2019

“This was by far the best holiday cottage we have ever rented.”

It’s location garden exterior condition together with its superb fixtures and fittings inside made it perfect.

Mr Streeter October 2018

“The welcome we received has to be the best that we have ever had from a holiday let - cake, wine and even treats for the dogs brilliant.”

The beautiful, fully dog proof garden is excellent. The bungalow is perfectly fitted out with all the equipment anybody could want. Well done Mr and Mrs Banks and thank you.

- Mr Streeter, October 2018
Mr Wooster October 2018

“This property has the safest garden for a dog that we have encountered with any rental.”

So often a property is listed as 'pet-friendly' but you arrive to find that although pets are allowed in the property, the garden is not safely fenced... The hamlet of Lower Ashton in the pretty Teign Valley is peaceful and its pub welcoming, with local beer and a good choice of well-cooked meals.

- Mr Wooster, October 2018
Mr Lillywhite September 2018

“Teign View is a lovely spacious, warm and comfortable bungalow with everything needed for a peaceful, relaxing holiday.”

We were met by Joan, the owner who showed us around and gave us the rundown on everything. She left us with a stack of goodies and treats for the dogs, all of which was very much appreciated after a long journey. Our two dogs enjoyed the freedom of the garden and the river walk down the road, and it was useful to have a back entrance and an area to clean and dry them. The pub across the road do excellent meals and everybody we met in Lower Ashton, and elsewhere, were very friendly. Although the place is quiet and peaceful there is lots to see and without going too far. All in all a lovely holiday with superb weather. Would highly recommend and would definitely go back again.

- Mr Lillywhite, September 2018
Mr Chambers August 2018

“Everything met all our needs would recommend this location for anyone wishing a quiet holiday but with only a short drive to the coastal towns.”

Dartmoor National Park is a must for the more adventurous,followed by a pint in the many local pubs.

- Mr Chambers, August 2018
Mrs Gibson July 2018

“A most enjoyable week and a splendid welcome from Mr.”

& Mrs. Bankes with a Devonshire cream tea and also wine. A very nice lounge, comfortable bedrooms and excellent well equipped kitchen. The garden was a delightful place to spend a little quiet time. For our purposes the cottage was ideally situated on the edge of Dartmoor National Park with a friendly Inn serving delicious and imaginative meals just across the road.

Mrs Quin June 2018

“Lovely cottage in small village watch out for sat nav traps when driving round ...”

Lovely cottage in small village watch out for sat nav traps when driving round area lots of small single track roads but you soon learn to avoid them and take a slightly longer route cottage and garden very relaxing pub road corner has excellent food but you do need to book they are very busy had a fantastic week here lots of walking routes not far away

- Mrs Quin, June 2018
Mrs Oliver May 2018

“Comfortable bungalow accommodation with lovely wide garden.”

Ideal for small and big children alike. Friendly owners who cannot do enough for you to make your stay relaxing. When we arrived Joan had made us so homemade cakes, a pot of tea and our small boys had a kinder egg each, a lovely touch. We also were given a bottle of wine that we enjoyed very much. All in all a really nice bungalow in a quiet location. It has no mobile signal there at all but has a land line for emergencies. Corner of road leading to the property is very tight and only normal sized cars would get round it. Beautiful surroundings and many places of interest to explore.

- Mrs Oliver, May 2018
Mr Bennett May 2018

The owners of Teign View were absolutely marvellous, so friendly and helpful, the cottage itself was lovely, beautiful gardens to sit in, there was not one household utensil that was missing, everything was catered for I truly could not fault the place at all and will definitely be returning as it was home from home.

Mrs Cooper March 2018

“This is a superbly appointed property, very comfortable and quiet.”

Handy for visiting places around South Devon both coastal and beautiful Dartmoor inland. We took our dog and there is a lovely enclosed garden plus the bonus of a covered area where she could be dried off before coming indoors. There is a lovely pub (The Manor Inn) just a few yards away, the staff are very friendly and food superb. We will certainly re-visit in the future.
