Cleanliness
Unfortunately we’ve been unable assess this category comprehensively enough based on the reviews we’ve received from guests about this property.
Location
The cottage's location is consistently lauded for being central and within walking distance to all local amenities, including shops, cafes, and beaches, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing holiday.
Comfort
Guests find the cottage comfortable and well-equipped, with a home-from-home feel. However, some mention the heat during a particularly hot week and the steepness of the stairs, which could affect overall comfort for some visitors.
Facilities
The property is well-regarded for its layout and equipment, but comments about limited wardrobe space and a restrictive shower height suggest some areas for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
Thoughtfulness
The mention of welcome flowers and milk suggests a degree of thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not consistently referenced, it is politely noted that such gestures, while appreciated, are not guaranteed for every stay.
About this property
The perfect coastal bolthole for a couple or family.
This delightful coastal holiday property overlooks the village green in Shaldon, a trendy seaside town that’s known for its buzzing culture. Less than 300 metres from the beach, this home from home is a fantastic base for couples, friends and a family holiday to the coast, where you can spend your days combing the sands and your evenings enjoying a family film night or dining out in Shaldon’s many pubs and restaurants.
Inside, the cottage is packed with coastal style, reflecting its fabulous seaside location. The accommodation is modern with charming, cottage-style touches and sophisticated, neutral tones to create a cosy and welcoming bolthole. The open-plan living room is stylish with two leather sofas and a dining table and chairs, while the kitchen has everything you need for rustling up a family feast. The style and palette continue upstairs in the two beautifully furnished bedrooms. The master bedroom has a lovely bay window overlooking the green. The smaller second bedroom has a double bed with a clear space to one side. Both bedrooms share the bathroom on this floor. Outside the cottage is a sweet patio to the front, with a table and chairs making the perfect spot for relaxing with a drink while watching the goings-on of the village green.
While in Shaldon, sample the buzzing café culture, or book a meal at the Michelin-starred restaurant. If you visit in August, prepare to get swept up in the merriment of the annual Shaldon Regatta! The local area is a great place for dog walking too, with the South West Coastal Path offering some fabulous coastal walks right on the doorstep. Follow one of the nature trails, do a spot of bird watching on the river or try your hand at one of the water sports on offer. If you fancy exploring further, hop on one of the regular ferries across the River Teign to explore Teignmouth. The lively attractions of Torquay are within 8 miles, while Dartmoor (12 miles) offers a dynamic day out for walking, mountain biking, wild swimming and extreme sports.
