  • "We were four adults and a toddler, and have just spent a fantastic week at Seacroft."

    The hosts, Helen & Phil, are extremely friendly and had kindly texted us the day before our arrival to say we could check in early if we liked, which was very much appreciated. They were also there when we arrived to explain all about the property and local area, and were contactable throughout our stay if we had any questions. The 'welcome pack' was also very much appreciated and enjoyed, as were the fresh eggs which were kindly supplied by the host's chickens. The house itself could not be faulted. It was spotlessly clean and comfortable and very well eqiupped with everything we could need. The views over Torbay from the balconies are amazing, however the weather was against us for a few days so we didn't sit outside as much as we would have liked. Overall a stunning property in a fantastic location. Highly recommended.

    Thanks Ian for your lovely review, we’re so happy you enjoyed your stay. Whilst we can’t promise to welcome every guest personally, we will always try and let incoming guests know what time they might be able to arrive if it looks like it could be early. We’ve added a few more details and information to the welcome book too. Property Owner

  • "The four of us thoroughly enjoyed our break in Torquay, the weather was kind to us and we were able to have a good tour around - namely Salcombe, Teignmouth, Paignton and Dartmouth."

    The property was clean, tidy and had lovely comfy beds. Only downside was there could be a couple of trip hazards for the elderly and guests who were not so safe on their "pins". The owners, Helen and Phil were friendly and helpful.

  • "What a find!"

    Seacroft is a stunning property with fantastic views. Very comfortable beds & sofas, great showers, TV's in bedrooms, outside seating on balcony & terrace - it has everything... We spent a week there with friends (so 2 couples) and all agreed that it was one of the best properties that we have stayed in. Owners Helen & Phil were a delight and provided a great 'welcome' pack. Would definitely recommend.

    Thanks Rowena for your lovely words, we are delighted that in our first year so many people have enjoyed their stay at Seacroft and are happy to recommend us. Update We’ve added a toast rack to our inventory for this season Property Owner

  • "Having used Sykes Cottages for the last 10 years I can honestly say this is the best property we have ever stayed at."

    Spotlessly clean, well equipped, very modern and comfortable. Lovely to look out of the huge sliding glass windows on a night and see the lights of Paignton and Brixham twinkling across Torbay. Enjoyed a few meals on the balcony. Owners live next door so were on hand to welcome us and answer any queries we may have had. Enjoyed the welcome pack left for us.Made friends with their dog Nora and Harry the cat. Would 100% recommend this property if you are looking for a holiday house equipped to a high standard with relaxing views of the sea and coast across the bay.

    Thanks Hazel for your kind review, we are delighted that so many guests in this our first year have made the effort to leave us great feedback. Property Owner

  • "Very spacious property for the 2 of us."

    Hosts were very friendly, helpful and welcoming, as were Harry and Nora. House was well equipped, clean and well furnished. Comfortable bed and efficient shower. Quiet location with wonderful views of Torbay from both the deck and balcony. A twenty minute downhill walk to Torquay, Wellswood and Meadfoot Beach. Would highly recommend and stay again without hesitation.

    Thank you very much for your lovely review, we too hope to see you again. Property Owner

  • "Our family had a wonderful stay at Seacroft."

    What a super place. There was everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The kitchen was stylish and modern and very well equipped with all that we required and more. Everywhere was immaculately clean. The bedrooms had good storage, beds were extremely comfortable providing an excellent nights sleep and waking up to fabulous views over the bay. We could not have asked for more the owners had thought of everything even leaving home made scones, honey from their bees and Devonshire clotted cream. I must congratulate them on providing a property to such a high standard and hope to look forward to a return visit.

    Thanks for your lovely review, we’ve really enjoyed hosting so many lovely people this year and we’d certainly look forward to seeing you all here again. Property Owner

  • "We were lucky enough to spend the bank holiday weekend at Seacroft and what a find it was!"

    The house is immaculate, spacious and complete to an extremely high standard with everything you could possibly need. The location is perfect with just a short walk into the centre of Torquay and the views from the balcony’s were fabulous. We were greeted by Phil and Helen on arrival and they were so helpful with recommendations and quick to respond to any messages. The added touches such as fresh scones, cream, jam and fresh eggs from their own chickens were very much appreciated. We also loved the occasional visit from Nora the English bulldog lol. A truly great place to stay and we hope to return at some point. Thank you very much both! X

    Thank you for your lovely review, we’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay, and of course we’d love to welcome you here again Property Owner

This bright and airy retreat welcomes one well-behaved dog and includes off-road parking, making it ideal for families or friends seeking a memorable coastal escape. Inside, the open-plan living space invites you to cook, dine, and relax together, gather around the table for shared meals or settle in front of the Smart TV after a day exploring the English Riviera. The three bedrooms, each containing a smart TV, bring their own charm: the ground-floor king-size room opens directly onto the garden terrace, the first-floor king-size features a private balcony with views stretching to Berry Head and beyond and an en-suite with walk-in shower featuring rainfall, waterfall and handheld shower options, whilst the twin room offers a luxurious freestanding bath and walk-in shower again with rainfall and handheld options.
