“Cottage was as expected - clean and tidy on arrival, all services working in the cottage.”

The owner called me on arrival day to mention an issue the previous week which was fixed by the time we arrived. It was good that the owner called and wished us a good holiday. Facilites in wider Colmer Estate were as detailed, the outside pool was a success with the kids. ...

The owner called me on arrival day to mention an issue the previous week which was fixed by the time we arrived. It was good that the owner called and wished us a good holiday. Facilites in wider Colmer Estate were as detailed, the outside pool was a success with the kids. If there is one area of upgrade that I would encourage the owner to consider is to put a simple wifi connection into the cottage. We knew it wasn't there but I was hoping that I could use my mobile phone roaming signal, however, Colmer and the immediate area seems to be in a particularly poor mobile phone signal area. Wifi would have been very useful, to allow us to plan, book tickets etc. rather than having to leave site all the time to do this.

“The coach House was very comfortable and clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing break.”

The indoor pool and gym could be used at anytime (maybe not during school holidays though) and the grounds were a pleasure to walk around. The garden was a sun trap and was a pleasure to sit out of an evening. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quite relaxing break.

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your holiday at The Coach House. The gym and indoor pool are available for use all year round and the outdoor pool is heated from the end of May until early September. We hope to be able to welcome you again to the Coach House in the future. Sykes owner relations

“This house was perfect for our young family.”

We loved the grounds and the indoor pool was really warm. We had 4G on our phones so no internet not a problem. Would love to go again and defiantly recommend.

“We had a few issues with the cottage: - There was no wi-fi or mobile signal available.”

This made it impossible to plan or book anything to do locally without a trip up the road. I'm aware that the cottage listing doesn't mention wi-fi anywhere but it would seem essential in an area that has no mobile reception either. All the other cottages seemed to have wi-fi networks except this one for that reason. Some of our neighbours were good enough to let us use there's when we needed to call anywhere but this couldn't be done from our cottage. - The fridge in the kitchen needs to be fixed. It worked fine but is very small and all of the shelves inside the door are missing meaning you can fit even less in there. - The DVD player stopped working while we were there. Luckily we managed to get a DVD out before it stopped turning on all together. - The bed in the main bedroom is very small and uncomfortable. The room could easily accommodate something bigger. Other than the above we were very happy. It's a lovely cottage in a great estate. *** Owner Response *** Thank you for giving your comments after your recent stay at the Coach House. The property does not currently offer wi-fi which is accurately noted in the property description. Mobile phones can be used at Colmer - but given it's rural location signal is intermittent and some providers are better facilitated than others. The new fridge in the kitchen now has an added door shelf which will hopefully provide extra storage space. Unfortunately our stone built property which dates back to mid 18th century gives limited space to install a large kitchen! The DVD player has always worked well and unfortunately malfunctioned during your stay - it has since been replaced. The double bed is a standard double size and is a quality bed - no further comments have been received from other guests. I'm glad you enjoyed your holiday and benefitted from the many facilities provided at the Colmer Estate***

The property

The Colmer Estate is an exclusive collection of 20 holiday cottages set in 28 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds.

A range of year-round indoor and outdoor facilities will keep the whole family entertained whatever the weather and include both an indoor and outdoor pool, fitness room, games room, children’s play area and a hard tennis court (bring your own racquets and balls).

Nearby, are many sandy beaches, including Bigbury on Sea where you can cross the water by sea tractor to explore Burgh Island and its elegant art deco hotel.

The popular towns of Salcombe and Dartmouth are both just a short drive away.

The original Coach House is now a detached, single storey cottage.

A traditional stone building, the open plan living area is bright and contemporary as are the three comfortable bedrooms - a double, a twin and a children's bunk room.

From the living area, French doors open on to the patio and front lawn, where you can enjoy the late summer evenings - and glimpses of the pool are visible through the archway of the gatehouse.
