  Just spent a long weekend Friday to Monday in Bosuns Cottage (End Sept 2014). Really lovely character cottage, very well equipped and in a fantastic location for us, just five minute gentle walk to the harbour. Brilliant shower, which we did not have any issues with at all and it was used every day of our stay, dishwasher and washing machine were used too and they both worked well. We even had to put the heating on for a couple of the days as it went a little chilli in the evening but that was easy to operate and worked a treat! The only two negatives about this cottage was that the cane furniture in the sitting room was not too comfortable but as we were only there the weekend it was not too much of an issue for us but if i was there for longer i would have preferred a more comfortable sofa. Finally, it's a very old cottage we appreciate that but there were signs of damp on the walls in the kitchen and dining room. Again it didn't bother us too much but we were just very concious of our dog brushing up against it as the paint had bubbled and burst and had he of touched it with his body or tail, the paint and plaster underneath would have fallen to the floor. Don't get me wrong, the cottage was not wriggled with damp throughout. It was just two or thee small patches in a small area and it would not stop us staying there again. The car parking ticket that came with this property was worth it's weight in gold and i think we used it in almost every car park we could especially the one two minutes walk round the corner from the cottage.

  We stayed for a week in this lovely cottage, it was much bigger than I expected and the photos did not do it justice. It was lovely and clean, very spacious and had everything inside you could possibly need. There was fresh milk left for us which was a lovely touch and the whole cottage had a nautical theme. I noticed on some reviews people had put there was no full length mirror -well there is now in the main bedroom. Lots of space, large kitchen with everything in. There is even a drawer in the bedroom in which you can help yourself if you have forgotten anything-we didn't need this but is very useful just in case and another nice touch. Close to Torquay centre and walking distance to a couple of beaches. If you have a car it must be parked in the car park round the corner not on the street. The brilliant thing about it is the car park pass which meant we could travel to other beaches anywhere around Torbay and park for free!!! Saved us loads as we liked Broadsands beach a short drive away! Really enjoyed our stay, thank you.

  I found Bosuns cottage in the holiday cottages brochure and on the company website . It looked a decent place in a good location .The price for a full week in late may was acceptable. Imagine our surprise when we arrived at Bosuns cottage and discovered to our delight that it was far better than the pictures portrayed it to be. It was very clean and spacious , and the nautical theme gave it plenty of character. The town centre location is superb with all amenities close at hand . Its without doubt fantastic value for money and I cannot fault it in any way . My fiancée and I have already discussed making a return visit , theres no doubt we will stay at Bosuns again subject to availability . I would be more than happy to recommend this property to family and friends . ten out of ten. Ian Morgan , Quarry Bank , West Midlands .

  We stayed for a week at Bosuns Cottage with 2 small children. The beds in all of the rooms were very comfy and all the linen provided was clean and good quality. The kitchen was well equipt, but if you are over 5ft 11...mind your head!! We had a couple of small problems with the cottage during the week but these were dealt with quickly and with no disruption to our holiday. The parking permit came in very handy as the weather wasn't great whilst we were there so we had a few day trips out. All in I would say its a lovely place to stay and the location is fantastic...literally 2 minutes to the harbour! If we holiday in Torquay again, we wouldn't hesitate to stay at Bosun's cottage again.

  We really enjoyed our holiday in Torquay.

  Fowey cottage was in a perfect spot. At first I thought it would be a bit noisy with being on a large estate but it wasn`t. The cottage was comfortable with large rooms. The double bed was comfy. The only things that let it down slightly were the steps up to the front door and the black painted steps at the back door into the garden. As you step out of the house into the sunlight the steps look like one large step and not the three steps that there are. A bit of white paint to define the edges wouldn`t go amiss. But overall a nice place to stay. As we had travelled almost 300 miles a welcome pack would have been appreciated.
