  2, Garden Apartment is part of a former hotel situated towards the end of a 0.

  9km single track road with passing places, which leads off a similar 5km single track road from Stokenham. Both roads are bounded by high hedges and negotiation in the summer, with tourist and local traffic, is challenging, such that excursions by vehicle have to be undertaken with particular care. Indeed, although we went out on most days we did not go out at all in the evenings. If one were to stay in the property without travelling out, there are excellent pool and tennis facilities but walking is confined to the coastal path, so is somewhat restricted. In truth, we would not go there again. The apartment is well maintained, and the aspect is lovely, especially in the good (for tourists!) weather we have been having (September 2022). We had a few niggles: the code we were given for entrance to the grounds was incorrect, lacking the prefix letter, while the description of the location of the entrance code at the property was unclear: it took us 30minutes, with the help of local visitors, to get inside the property when we arrived. The washbasin in the double bed room lacked a serviceable stopper and the dishwasher instructions were incomprehensible. Communication with the agent was very difficult by mobile phone (outside the property).

  This holiday accomodation did not disappoint.

  A fabulous apartment with great facilities. Everything was clean and tidy throughout. The natural light is wonderful. During our stay, we made use of the swimming pool on a daily basis. The shared garden is stunning, we saw dolphins, seals and coastal birds, we even spotted a lizard sitting on a bench! This property offers great access to the South West Coastal Path and beaches. The views on the walk to Start Point are breathtaking. A trip to Mattiscombe Sands is definitely worth it! We took swimming gear and a picnic. A 40 minute walk. We also wandered 20 minutes to The Cricket Inn at Beesands (great food and Pimms), on another day had lunch at Britannia at the Beach (with the best Seafood Platter and Fish Pie). We ventured onto Torcross, then Stokeley Farm Shop for supplies (a bit of a trek if you're not a walker). Most evening we walked 5 minutes to Hallsands Beach, to watch the swifts and skim stones. Our 2 teenage sons were in their element. Thank you to the owners for their support when needed.

  This last visit was the third for my wife and myself in last three years.

  I hope that speaks volumes. We intend to rebook for next year. The apartment is extremely spacious, well appointed and very comfortable with lovely views to the distant sea and along the coastline. It is situated on the ground floor of the sunny West corner of the building with direct access to the garden, which was ideal for our little dog! I just love swimming off the beautiful sandy beach down the lane at South Milton Sands - some 300 yards away. There is also direct access to the South West Coast Path at the end of the lane there. I recommend a clifftop walk beside the golf links to Bantham and a pub lunch at The Sloop! If you go in the other direction then head over to Hope Cove and a pre-booked lunch at The Lobster Pod in one of their pods.

  We’ve stayed in many properties in the past and 2 Garden Apartment was probably the best we’ve ever stayed in.

  It was quiet, comfortable, clean and well appointed in every aspect. However, we will not return and would not recommend the property due to the remoteness of the property. When we booked the apartment we had no idea that it was so remote and difficult to access due to the very narrow lanes which were more than 5 miles from the nearest A road. Travelling backwards and forwards to the property was a nightmare and especially as the hedgerows in the lanes were overgrown and in my opinion making driving dangerous. I suppose that it was my fault for not investigating how remote the property was but I also think that Sykes should have at least mentioned it in their write up.
