All with unique, rustic styles that reflect your seaside location, the bedrooms offer crisp, white linens and splendid surroundings in which to relax.

    A fantastic property in a fantastic location. The views are stunning and the maintenance and cleanliness standards of the owners are extremely high.

  • Miss Manning

    We had a lovely stay at Sandpipers, the views are amazing. Perfect holiday, Downderry view quiet which was just what we like, shop is no longer open so either have to drive to shops or turn up well stocked. Beds super comfy and everything you need is there, including washing machine which is not listed on equipment list. Would definitely revisit.

    We have been travelling to all over Devon and Cornwall for many years and have tried lots of different properties. This was right up there as one of the very best, if not the best. It’s idyllically quiet. There is a school next door but even in the height of summer it was not invasive. The property has amazing views overlooking the sea and you get lulled to sleep each night by the sound of lapping waves. It’s very well equipped throughout and the children loved the games room which has lots to do even for the inevitable rainy days. What made this especially great was that the room is downstairs so the noise of happy children didn’t disturb us as much as at home! This is a peaceful quiet village so is definitely for those who crave a break from the rush of normal life. Shops are a 15 min drive and there is an excellent pub overlooking the sea a stumble from the property and a tapas bar a similar distance (but without the sea views). My only fear in recommending this property is that we won’t get in it again once everyone else discovers it. Thank you for a wonderful break.
