Unfortunately we were slightly disappointed with this home.The location was beautiful, two lovely pubs and the ferry to Dartmouth was a 10 minute walk away. And loads of beautiful towns and beaches are super close by.It was great having parking in a large garage available as parking is expensive if not and can be really busy.. even in April!However the home itself wasn’t really up to the standard we’d expect or paid for.It’s a home for 5 people but everything felt unequipped for 5.There were boxes and used bottles under our bedsDust everywhere, on top of headboard, wardrobesThe outside area off the kitchen was filthy, had an old ladder, broken washing basket just sat on the table that’s pictured.Seating outside was only for 3 and no cushions to sit onIt’s dog friendly but no gate to stop dogs from running down steps into the road or over to neighbours The air fryer and oven were really poor so we had to eat out the whole time, I’d seen a review of this and not taken it seriously but.. it was bad!Everywhere just needed a lick of paint and a really good clean if I’m honest, like I said location is beautiful but house itself was not the best.

We had a winter break here looking forward to cosy nights in by the log burner, having booked the cottage specifically for this purpose. We were very disappointed and disheartened when we got there to discover that the log burner was out of use. The week’s weather was damp and dreary and very wet so this added to our discomfort and dissatisfaction!We contacted cottages.com over this and a few other issues.Most of the small matters were resolved but they could do nothing about the log burner.Check before you book as the info on the website when we booked was incorrect.

Nice comfortable holiday home. Private off road parking very good.Near to ferries to Dartmouth can walk easily and train. Nice views from front patio area of river.Clean inside, only criticism is air fryer took ages to cook food not sure if it needs replacing.And dogs couldn't be let out onto the front patio as there's no gate only down steps but that would have meant dogs going onto other peoples areas.So could do with a gate to make patio secure.But overall Nice home, good parking, easy to get around, nice views and would recommend to anyone.
