Step outside, and the magic of Amber Tide truly unfolds. Evenings spent with sundowners on the terrace, while afternoons are spent wandering golden beaches, clifftop trails, and hidden coves. As the sun dips, al fresco feasts stretch into the evening, warmed by good company and the soft glow of glorious sunsets.
Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen, the open-plan dining area is bathed in natural light, with a large wooden table perfect for family suppers that stretch into the evening. Window seats frame this special view.

Our stay was amazing at Amber Tide The view was amazing and we really enjoyed our stay.
Mrs Wiggett
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Amber Tide and would give it 5/5 rating. The house location was superb with the best views we have ever experienced as we have stayed a couple of times before in Thurlestone. The house furnishings and decoration were done to a very high standard and the kitchen was extremely well stocked. Fresh flowers and welcome hamper added to the high class experience. We hope to book with Finest Stays again next year.

I don't even know where to start with this review - what an absolutely incredible place. From the location, to the views, to the fact that it is probably the most well equipped holiday home we've all stayed in - we couldn't have been more thrilled with it. Plenty of room for everyone to have their own space, but equally to spend time together. Thank you as well for the help with the annex and extra bed linen - you went above and beyond to help and have definitely secured a booking for next year! The only (very minor) comment was that the wi fi was somewhat sporadic on occasion but none of us were working there so wasn't a major concern.
