Guest Reviews

Charlotte
We had a lovely stay here! The house is perfect for big groups or families, especially with plenty of bathrooms so everyone gets their own space. The dining table was great for shared mealsand the games room kept us entertained for hours. The massive TV was a bonus for movie nights. The garden was ideal for our dogs to run aroundand the hot tub, though quite hot, was a nice treat. Just remember to bring extra towels if you plan to use it, as there weren't enough provided. Overall, a great place!
Emma Carter
We really enjoyed our stay here! The house was perfect, with a fantastic location and everything we needed under one roof. It was spotless and well-maintained, which made things even better. The cream tea on arrival was a lovely touch. We did have a small issue with the heating, but it was sorted out quickly, so no worries there. We're already thinking of coming back. Thanks, Geoff!
Laura
The house was lovely, had all the basicsand the hot tub was a real bonus. The team was helpful and friendly, making our stay really enjoyable overall. Would definitely return!
Oliver
We had a fantastic stay at this spacious house spread over four floors, including a basement with a pool table, which was a hit. The living room's massive TV, bigger than the pics, came with full Sky and Netflix - perfect for relaxing. Its location is great, just a short walk along the River Torridge footpath to Bideford. The hot tub was a real treatand the owners, living nearby, were super helpful when we needed anything. Overall, we'd definitely recommend this place for a comfy getaway. Really enjoyed it!
Mrs. Edwards
We had an amazing stay! The cottage was spotless, with super comfy beds and a fantastic ensuite. The games room and hot tub were such bonusesand having TVs in every room plus a huge one in the lounge made it even better. The lovely dining table and well-equipped kitchen made everything feel homely. The welcoming scones, jam, creamand drinks were a lovely touch!
James
It's not every day that your expectations are completely surpassed! We have to say this place is just fantastic! There aren't enough words to describe it really... we would absolutely recommend staying here to anyone. Even our dogs adored it! Thanks a bunch for accommodating our late departure yesterday. Brilliant!
Claire
This is a lovely place for a family Christmas! It was so warm and cosy that we all had a fabulous time. We highly recommend it!
Fiona
The house was just the right size for three families to share, fully equippedand everything has been well thought out. We loved the cosy sofas for those evenings in front of the TV, the big garden, games roomsand the hot tub to keep everyone entertained (a pool would have been the icing on the cake) The location was great, just a short drive to the beach. We really enjoyed this holiday and it just didn't seem long enough!
Sarah
We had a lovely stay at Spacious 6-Bedroom House in Bideford, celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary with our family. The house was comfortable and clean, with plenty of space for everyone...everything we needed for a relaxing break.
