What a perfect place for our stay in the Torquay area! The home was easy to find, easily accessed through a lock box, and had everything we needed. I feel I have to mention that the beds were amazing - so comfortable! It was in walking distance to a grocer, several restaurants, and Kent's Caves - and with bus stops nearby if you don't have a car handy. Claire was wonderful to work with, and I definitely would stay here again.

The cottage is very well equipped. However, because it was so hot, we had to leave all windows wide open during the first night. As there was much more traffic than we expected, we had a hard time sleeping. The cottage proved a very good starting point for our day trips to Exeter and Dartmouth and the beaches.

Host was very welcoming even made sure we had arrived safely, the lodge was very comfortable and well equipped and perfectly positioned for what we wanted and where we wanted to be, even though next to a busy pub we wasn't disturbed and if we didnt want to drive plenty of buses or walking distance to lots of different beautiful sites, definitely would stay there again
