Beautiful house in a great location

We had a wonderful sunny week in Challaborough. Beachdown is a beautiful, spacious property and just minutes from the beach. The village itself has a great chippy, a bar and a small shop. We loved the easy walk on the Coast Path over to the stunning Bigbury sands and Burgh Island. Challaborough had great surfing and body boarding. The only downside was that it was hard to get in and out of the village due to the very narrow roads but there was plenty to do in the village and at nearby beaches.

Hi Rosanne, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a lovely review. We are pleased to hear that you had a lovely stay at 1 Beachdown. Its great to hear that you found the property in good condition and enjoyed the layout of the space. The local area is very lovely so its nice to hear that you made the most of it and enjoyed some walks and food in the area. We are sorry you found some off the village roads hard to navigate this is common in lots off coastal town which can be frustrating. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!

Spacious accommodation.

Lovely bright airy place to stay. Good size rooms. Very clean. Lots of kitchen equipment. Getting to the property is a bit tricky due the narrow roads. Easy to get to the beach and other beaches. Great fish and chip shop 100 metres away.

This is the best residence in challaborough.

1 Beachdown is stunning. The views from the rooftop are incomparable in the area. We would definitely book here again! Located a two minute amble from the beach, you have direct access to challaborough beach and Bigbury. The space is huge. We took two small dogs and just us as a couple as we needed somewhere to switch off. All of the rooms are spacious, with two bathrooms. The weather was stunning while we were there, so we took full advantage of the decking area and open plan kitchen, to move the inside outside. All facilities were very modern, with everything you need at your fingertips.

Beautiful holiday home

Beautiful holiday home, with everything you need. Our only feedback would be that the outside space needs a little tlc and perhaps some new furniture. It's a shame the roof space was not more inviting. We also found the lanes to the house very narrow and it could take a long time to actually get to the main road. Otherwise we loved the quiet safe location and easy access to the beach.

Lovely base for exploring area

Beautiful modern home with a fabulous layout. Perfect spot to enjoy lovely long walks, visit Salcombe or the like and the beach are minutes away. Be sure to check your dates of travel if you want to enjoy the Challaborough Holiday Park’s beach with your dog as it not dog friendly all year. The house is dog friendly for one dog. Just a note, the house has no operating windows, only sliding doors, really nice ones, that we had wide open throughout our stay. That said if you have a pet or children that tend tend to stray, you will find it very difficult to get fresh air in without having the doors open.

Great location

A lovely building, downstairs very clean upstairs there was loads of white hairs look like dog hairs our dog does not molt hair as she’s not that sort of dog, we swept up what we could, the layout was lovely the master bedroom the mattress on the left side mattress has gone but the right side was comfy other two beds too low to use and also blue leather sofa very low the black leather chair was comfy outside was lovely and the roof top terrace was lovely, great location nothing much there be handy in the guide instead of having instructions on how to use oven and hob and microwave which was very straight forward put where local shops are we went to Plymouth to Sainsbury’s when up the road half the distance was good shops, if you do stay take food or get Tescos to drop it off as nothing there and small very narrow roads to the property would I stay again yes we would as we wanted a get away from it stay and that’s what we got very quite you could hear the waves from the sea when sitting outside go to the island walking is better than driving nice pub and shop that sells bits and bobs and hoodies etc lovely lady in the shop very informative overall a great stay would recommend but if you have mobility issues only one bed is high and blue leathers sofas to low seen there day but overall a very nice property private and quiet and plenty of room

Hi Clare. Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful feedback. We're really pleased to hear you enjoyed the peaceful setting, the rooftop terrace, and the overall layout of the property. We’re sorry to hear about the dog hairs upstairs. While the property is thoroughly checked during each changeover, we’ll follow up with the cleaning team to double-check and ensure this isn't a continued problem. Regarding the mattress in the master bedroom, the team will inspect it to assess the condition and make any necessary improvements. Thanks again for your kind words and for recommending the property. We’re glad you had a relaxing getaway and would love to welcome you back in the future. All the best.

Great house and experience but tainted a bit

The house is light, modern, clean, spacious and has great entertaining spaces. It overlooks a caravan park, but we knew this and that was fine. The major issue was that the washing machine is broken and it fused the electricity of the house mid-cycle with a full load of my kids’ clothes (sitting in dirty water). I had no clean clothes for my kids and, when pressed, the only alternative the agent offered was to use the laundrette at the caravan site. This is c20mins walk away from the house (NB you cannot park at the caravan site). This then created lots of others issues (make sure you bring coins and detergent for the laudrette!). Having rented a premium house, it is not exactly where I wanted to spend 2 hours on a Sat evening.

A beautiful property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Beachdown is a stone’s throw from the beach. The property is spacious and beautifully decorated throughout, with ample crockery and glassware, etc. provided. A large TV, ample games and DVD’s and lots of books are available to guests. The large balcony terrace is a great social and relaxing space. On arrival there was a bottle of milk in the fridge - very welcome - and a bottle of local fizz and some fudge, all nice touches. Elsie, the property host was very helpful and always replied to messages and queries promptly - gratefully appreciated. Challaborough is a sleepy, unspoilt and friendly village perfect for those who want to relax and enjoy an uncomplicated holiday with great coastal views. Bigbury on Sea and Burgh Island are a short walk away along the coast path.
