“The location of the apartment was fantastic.”

I think it would be helpful to point out that parking is a 10/15 minute walk away but there is a short stay car park for loading/unloading.

“Ghastly waiting until 5 to get in after an awful drive down.”

Completely unacceptable to have to wait for 'extra cleaning' when this had obviously not been done. We watched the cleaner for 45 mins as he was there with us until 5.45pm. Livid. Very lacklustre mopping of SOME of the floor. Kichen floor still filthy. No mopping of sitting room to speak of. You used to be brilliant as Coast & Country - since Sykes took over it's a disaster. Two years running I've had to complain re cleanliness..when are you going to get your act together?? Employ more cleaners!!!! It's not that you don't charge enough......a complete rip off now that we lose the first day of our holiday! Bedding still disgusting under the sheets - for God's sake wash the damned pillows between lets! Spent half my week cleaning- I would've thought over £700 a week could pay for a decent clean. Furious (again). Please pass this on to the owner or I will contact them direct.

Thank you for your feedback on your recent stay at Slipways. We were disappointed to read that the property was not ready for your arrival and that you were not happy with the cleanliness after the cleaner had departed. As you will know from your many stays with us, we do ask that we are made aware of any concerns as soon as possible during your stay so we are able to rectify these points for you, as well as having a 24 hour emergency line should you need us. Unfortunately, from what I can see this is the first we have been made aware of the issues you experienced. Our check in time has temporarily been pushed back until 5:00pm to allow the cleaners extra time to focus on high traffic areas such as light switches and door knobs/handles however we are hoping to be able to amend this back as soon as we can as we understand it is disappointing to have your holiday pushed back by two hours. We have passed your comments to the owners regarding the duvets and pillows, again if we had known during your stay we would have been able to replace these for you. We hope you still managed to enjoy your stay in Salcombe. Sykes owner relations

“Excellent central position providing easy access to pubs, coffee shops, bakery, grocery etc.”

Lovely views over the harbour and always something to look at -be it boats coming and going or dodgy parking!

Miss Rainford December 2019

“Such a beautiful, cosy appartement.”

We could spend all day in that bay window looking out to the water. A perfect winter escape!

“Great little flat, fantastic location and views.”

Couple of issues the owner might look at - we couldn't get any cold water out of the tap in the bathroom sink and we found the lighting poor (it was mainly lamps). Noise didn't bother us as that's what you get when you stay in such a prime location in Salcombe!

“Slipways was a great place to stay with wonderful views of the harbour.”

The apartment was clean and very well equipped with everything you could possibly want for a family beach holiday. The kitchen was also very well equipped with plenty of crockery and implements. We loved the decor with typical Salcombe type ornaments - a real 'home from home'!

There are two pretty beaches within a short distance, North Sands and South Sands and further on is the National Trust property Overbeck’s where you can wander through the subtropical gardens. Why not have a more adventurous day and try out the watersports available on the estuary including surfing, kayaking or a more leisurely boat trip? Whilst staying in Salcombe you must take advantage of the locally sourced seafood which is served in many of the restaurants, pubs, cafés and delicatessens. The southern tip of Devon provides some spectacular scenery and picturesque vistas with a number of sandy beaches, lovely villages with thatched cottages and some fantastic opportunities for walking, including the South West Coast path.
