What our customers say about their holidays

• Mr Roger Wilson - Verified booking

  Riverside House is a fantastic holiday cottage with wonderful accommodation and a great setting. I travel extensively and I can say without a shadow of doubt that Riverside House is as good, if not better than any other holiday accommodation I’ve ever stayed in. Every consideration and detail has been thought of both inside and outside with very little expense spared on fixtures and fittings. The kitchen is wonderfully well equipped, the lounge / dining area is extremely comfortable and the bedrooms are a good size with comfy beds. Both bathrooms are new and add a touch of luxury. We particularly enjoyed the tri-fold windows from the lounge to the outside seating area. The added bonus of a summerhouse overlooking the river in an additional area of garden is a lovely place to watch the sun set. We stayed immediately after lock down relaxed and safety / hygiene is well catered for. The place was spotless! We also travelled in our mid-life crisis car, aka a 2 seater convertible, and found the electric garage door and space for the car was terrific. We used the kayaks a few times and the barbecue extensively. Would we return? - definitely and we may even bring the kids with us next time. Thank you for sharing your beautiful house with us.

  With excitement we arrived and set foot through the door. Immediately we knew it was all we had wished for. The sun shone all the week as we went from coast to coast. Thurlestone was the beach that we all adored the most. The Gara Rock hotel for dinner was divine. East Portlemouth for coffee really was sublime. The Globe is everything a local pub should be. Great food, fun staff and a short hop for your tea. The Millbrook is a joy and the food not to be missed. Sundowners on the terrace - just moments of sheer bliss. Paddling on the creed and cooking up a feast. The plancha is so easy for the farm shop meaty treats. Bigbury On Sea is the perfect place to swim. And don't forget to try the Bonkers East Prawle Pig's Nose Inn! Torcross, Slapton, Blackpool in the sunshine, such a treat. The water is so clear that you could be down in Greece! The house is something special and we simply couldn't find A single thing the owners had not brought to mind. All in all a special time was had by all the fam. We hope for you the same - Love Caro, Andy, Anne

  What an amazing house! Love, love, loved it! We brought our own kayaks & gear and enjoyed the ease of just walking them out of the garage and down the short slope to the water. We went for a paddle almost everyday. We had sunshine pretty much all week so also enjoyed the deck, but also spent our afternoon reading in the summer house away from the rest of the world. Everything is so comfy - the snug carpet for my pilates mat, beds & settees all lovely - and well thought out with sockets all over the place. The new cafe by the bridge is great for coffees and their quiches for lunchtime were superb. Best day out definitely Holne Woods, with a walk & picnic by the river watching the locals swim. The house is spotlessly clean too, quite a feat with so much to dust. Thank you for your hospitality.

  The worst property we have stayed in!

  !!!. Black mould on all the showers. Needs a handle putting in the bath to help people get out. Skirting boards need dusting and painting. Dust on all the headboards and wardrobe. Fridge had thick ice at the back of it and was filthy inside so had to clean it!!!. Very shabby. Also in the information he never mentioned it was on a main busy road, since I’m going through a stressful divorce and my mum is 80 on a months time it really wasn’t what we wanted . The oven was dirty , thick with grease on doors and inside. Pans in the draws were thick with grease!!. The patio doors - the rims were coming off and couldn’t open the blinds easily. All the windows in the house were dirty too!!!. No tea towels or dishcloths. No cleaning materials!!!!. Overall very unhappy with our stay

  We have had a wonderful break away at Burrows.

  While there the Owner showed us their other property, ‘Applemill’ - both properties rivalled ones we have stayed in on the Chatsworth estate. A welcome of milk, teabags, coffee and chocolate cake on arrival. High quality towels, china, bedding provided. Plenty of hot water and heating available. We chose not to use the hot tub this time but would next time due to the rigorous maintenance testing schedule by the owners to ensure levels were correct. Dressing gowns provided for hot tub too! Property very comfortable throughout and open plan layout meant we all felt connected and joined in with meal preparation. Quiet location with beautiful views and sunset. Great night sky! Would definitely stay again and would like to stay at Applemill too! Sarah
