“Lovely bedrooms, all of them - and three ensuite.”

Great showers. Lovely triple aspect livingroom. The setting, the views were unsurpassable and we would definately go back. So close to the beach but a great view of the marsh and all the wildlife that went with it. Great garden for larger dogs - our smaller terriers could easily have got under the 3rd gate though.

Great showers. Lovely triple aspect livingroom. The setting, the views were unsurpassable and we would definately go back. So close to the beach but a great view of the marsh and all the wildlife that went with it. Great garden for larger dogs - our smaller terriers could easily have got under the 3rd gate though. So many pluses about this property - but a few suggestions. Ground floor bedroom needs a bigger better bed! And considering it's supposed to be disability marketed, there is a step up into the house - without ramp. The ktichen cupboards are cluttered with unnecessary stuff! It would appear to be the owners dumping ground for all those things they don't want in their own kitchen anymore. Get rid of them. Suggest the owners are not there on check in/out day - that's what the cleaning staff and agency are for!

Many thanks for your recent feedback. It is lovely to read how much you enjoyed the property, location and setting, and will look to return to Thornbrook at some point in the future.
We will of course pass on your feedback to the owners in respect of the bed although this is a relatively new addition to that room (as it used to be furnished with a sofa-bed) - we will also review the access in light of your comment, and the kitchen inventory to ensure the equipment levels are appropriate for the number of guests and size of the house.
Whilst it is the responsibility of the housekeeping team and agency to manage the changeover of the property between bookings, the owners are always on hand at Thornbrook to take care of other matters (eg. gardening, minor maintenance, general tidying) - we would generally view this as a good thing and hope we can all work together to ensure the house is presented to the highest standards for each guest arrival.

The property

Thornbrook is substantial detached family holiday home with private gardens, parking and sea views, set in a stunning location overlooking National Trust land and the nature reserve adjoining Thurlestone Sands beach.

Situated just 350m from the beach and just over a mile long walk from Thurlestone itself, with its post office/stores, church, 4-Star hotel, popular Village Inn, and challenging 18-hole golf course, the property is well located for exploring the area on foot.

The nearby South West Coast Path offers stunning coastal walks and spectacular views, with the delightful fishing village of Hope Cove around 15-20 minutes away in one direction, and the ever-popular surfing beach at Bantham a little further in the other.

The famous sailing town of Salcombe, with more beautiful sandy beaches and beautiful estuary, is just a short drive away, and the house is also within easy reach of the market town of Kingsbridge. With a recently upgraded kitchen, dining room, utility room, cloakroom and a cosy living area with wood-burning stove and double French doors leading out to the garden, the property has ample living space.

This three storey accommodation is comfortably furnished with five bedrooms (three of which are en suite).

There is also an adjoining games room with table football and table-tennis, mature landscaped gardens and off-road parking for 3-4 cars.

A hot tub is available from 2019 - this can be used from noon on Sunday after arrival (to allow sufficient time for cleaning and safe use).

Off-road parking on driveway for 3-4 cars. Thornbrook is an exceptionally well-equipped dog-friendly and baby friendly property, ideal for a family looking for a beachside break. N.B The hot tub must be drained on departure.

Please note that if this is not done, extra charges may be incurred.

For reasons of comfort and safety the house can accommodate a maximum of eight adults in any party and no more than four children under 6 years of age (excluding babies).
