Lovely cottage much more spacious than it looks. The garden is small but is enclosed which was ideal

Great location and great property. We had a fantastic holiday. Thurlestone is a gem.

Family Stay at Shepherds Patch

We had a wonderful stay at Shepherds Patch. A great location only a hop and a skip from the shop and pub and a short walk to several beaches. Thank you for having us.

A brilliant stay! Penny was a fantastic host and couldn’t recommend this beautiful cottage more. I had 9 friends (mixture of husband and wives from Northern Ireland visiting this area for my wedding) they absolutely loved it. Clean, bigger rooms than I thought, everything you need is in the cottage. Thank you for a lovely stay Penny. I’ll 100% recommend

Family holiday

Perfect position in a lovely village. The position is excellent for nearby beaches and to the coastal path for walking. The village shop is very well stocked for day to day needs. The refrigerator is a little small if 10 adults were staying which could result in more supermarket runs. Overall an excellent stay.

Great cottage

Great location, well equipped to a decent standard. For the price would like more outside space, only a very small garden that’s well in the shade

Great place for the extended family.

Comfortable and spacious for three couples and two children. We would have appreciated more provision for small children - a stair gate, high chair and travel cot take up a lot of space in a family car but would fit easily into the property’s shed!

Thurlestone is a great place for an English seaside holiday

We had a great week at Shepherds’s Patch. However the phot is a little misleading as the tress around the house are now very high. This means the house is on the dark side with no view. The garden is small with limited space to sit out other than at the table. The interior of the house is excellent with a very spacious kitchen and wonderful large table . Easy to get to the village shop, the pub and local beaches.

Family Holiday

First the directions to the property said travel through Modbury and Averton Gifford , you do go through Modbury but not Averton Gifford. YOU PASS AVERTON GIFFORD. The directions should be amended. The internet at the property is dire, suggest you get a booster. When I first booked the property one of my main criteria was that it had a washer and dryer which was the initial description at this property, Its not until you go into the whole description that you find that it is a combination washer dryer. if you ever had one of these you will find it is useless. when you have 6 adults and 4 children you need a washing machine and a dryer.I will certainly be more careful next time. It did not help that the drying area outside was abysmal covered in leaves did not get any air flow of sunshine the line was filthy and the drain from the over flow toilet was blocked which did not help the area. It also made the corner of the lounge smell damp. It also did not help that there was no airer to hang clothes on despite showing on the description. The toilet seat in the back yellow bedroom was loose, there seemed to be a lot of spiders around which seemed to amuse the children. The cold tap in the shower bathroom of the double bedroom was not working properly. Your letter also said that there was no hair dryer. There was. ! There is a mat outside the front door but no mat inside which makes for a area which can be wet. we always take our shoes of inside any house. I think a note about reaching the property by stairs would be advisable it did not matter to us but may do to some people. The kitchen was well equipped other than the washer/dryer. We enjoyed our holiday, the weather was kind to us.

Lovely well equipped cottage

Great cottage for a large group Well equipped ,warm and lots of hot water Only niggle was lack of mirrors in top floor bedrooms and The guest information folder probably could do with updating and more comprehensive information ...it took awhile to work out how the Range ovens worked Not helped by markings on the gauges bring almost worn away.
