“Coast and country were better.”

Don't feel comfortable with sykes

- Mrs Shaw, September 2021
Mr Wiser September 2021

“From the outside this apartment doesn't look like much but as soon as you walk in you realise that the people responsible have taste and take 'attention to detail' to the absolute limit.”

Everything is beautifully laid out, there is even a welcome bottle of wine, but the real winner is the view from the balcony. My wife and I have been all over the world but that view is up there with the best we have ever encountered. There is a beautiful set of wooden steps down to the sandy beach and they are flanked by buddleia, which are covered in butterflies! I do, however, have one really strong complaint, and that is the price. We paid around £600 for a week in September and when we looked at re-booking it for the following year the price had tripled to nearly £1,900, we can go away to the Canary Islands, in a beautiful apartment, for a month for that amount of money! So we will sadly not be returning to 2 Avon Quillet.

- Mr Wiser, September 2021
Mrs Walton July 2021

“We have stayed at this apartment before but only for one week.”

This time we stayed for two weeks and never tired of the wonderful view. Hoping to be back next year for a two weeks stay.

The photos don’t really do it justice, stunning views that change with the tide, apartment well equipped with all you need

- Mr Barnes, June 2021
Mrs Sheppard May 2021

“Beautiful location, the views from the balcony were second to none and the apartment was fab.”

- Mrs Sheppard, May 2021
Mrs Springett May 2021

“Whilst appreciating that extra cleaning is necessary due to Covid, it’s disappointing that we had to leave the apartment at 9.”

00am ( not 10.00am as when booked). In addition to this stripping beds, placing towels etc in bags, emptying bins etc takes time. The apartment was excellent, wonderful views, well equipped etc but all knives very blunt!

- Mrs Springett, May 2021
Mr Bowden April 2021

“This is the second time we have booked this lovely apartment, and it doesn't disappoint.”

It's well equipped its comfortable and the stunning view you get from the master bedroom first thing is fab. If the weather permits, have breakfast on the balcony where you really do appreciate the lovely scenery.

- Mr Bowden, April 2021
Mrs Weller October 2020

“Everything from start to finish was amazing.”

The apartment has everything that you need plus a view to die for!!! If there is a niggle I would say that the main bed mattress is possibly getting to its sell by date, we both have back problems and found the mattress did not help apart from that we really have had a wonderful stay in 2 Avon Quillet thank you to the owners and to Coast & Country!!! We will be using you again!!!

- Mrs Weller, October 2020

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are thrilled that you loved the apartment. Thank you for your comments about the bed, we have spoken with the owner and they are going to replace this bed. We do hope we can welcome you back to the area soon. Property Owner
Mr Bowden October 2020

“We were very pleased with the property and the stunning view of the bay and estuary.”

This is one that we shall be definately be coming back to. We have stayed in a lot of holiday lets over the years and Sykes is always our first choice.

- Mr Bowden, October 2020

“Just absolutely stunning in every aspect.”

From the property, to the view and a fortunate week of scorching weather... We will return

- Mrs Lingwood, August 2019
Mrs Castle-payne July 2019

“A well equipped apartment with an amazing view.”

Everything we could possibly want from a holiday let. The binoculars were a nice extra touch - very relaxing watching the surfers from our balcony.

- Mrs Castle-payne, July 2019

What lovely comments,- thank you! We agree that the view from 2 Avon Quillet is the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing getaway. Property Owner
Mrs Meats July 2019

“This was our third visit to 2 Avon Quillet and it was as fabulous as ever.”

The apartment is stunning as is the view! We love it here and will definitely be back. The only suggestion I would make is the lack of large enough pans for cooking for a family made meal times tricky so a couple of extra pans or even a wok would really help, as would some wooden spoons!

- Mrs Meats, July 2019
Mrs Walton July 2019

“The owners endeavoured to cover every small detail to make our holiday a wonderful, comfortable and pleasant experience.”

We loved the apartment, loved the view, didn’t want to leave and are hoping to book for a longer stay next year.

- Mrs Walton, July 2019
Mrs Jones June 2019

“A beautiful apartment with amazing sea views.”

180 steps down on to the beach or a nice ten minute walk along the headland.

- Mrs Jones, June 2019
Mrs B Shaw Oct 2018

“Fantastic view and well laid out”

- Mrs B Shaw, Oct 2018

L A Bourne Jun 2016

“A wonderful comfortable apartment with amazing sea views.”

In fact, it was so comfortable that if we didn't want to explore the area I would be happy to stay and enjoy the scenery. Even sitting on the sofa you could look down on the sea and watch all the enthusiastic surf boarders! 64 of them one evening! Wonderful sunsets and ever changing skies. Everything that we needed was there for our use. Even the kitchen! Allowed me to look out on the wonderful scenery! Superb.

About the location

BIGBURY-ON-SEA

Modbury 6 miles; Plymouth 12 miles.

Bigbury-on-Sea is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is ideal for family holidays. Dusted with sand and lapped by shallow waters, the beach offers safe fun for groups particularly if you’ve got children in tow. In addition, Bigbury-on-Sea beach is dotted with rock pools, so there’s plenty of entertainment for budding marine biologists. There’s also a wide and varied selection of watersports available to visitors who prefer their holidays to feature a little adrenaline rush. Windsurfing and kite-surfing are popular here, with hire facilities located right on the beach. To give you some peace of mind, there are lifeguards present at Bigbury-on-Sea beach during May to September and the beach also has a first-aid room. You can even take the dog onto the beach, although they are restricted to certain areas during the summer. Bigbury’s most famous landmark is Burgh Island, which overlooks the beach itself. The island is accessible at low tide, when the waters reveal a causeway that links it to the beach. However, when the tide is in you can still reach the island by hitching a ride on the popular and unique ‘sea tractor’. Burgh Island boasts an award-winning hotel, elegant and rather genteel, it’s an ideal romantic retreat for couples. Explore the South Devon coast with its fabulous sandy beaches and its breathtakingly beautiful coastal path or simply take time to visit some of the charming estuary towns and villages dotted throughout the area, such as Salcombe, Kingsbridge and Dartmouth. The city of Plymouth and the wild open spaces of Dartmoor are also both close at hand.

No pets permitted

All bed linen and bath/hand towels are supplied. You will need to bring your own tea towels and beach towels.

Bunk beds suitable for children only.

There is a telephone at the property for incoming and local calls.

Please note there will be works happening at other properties in the apartment block over winter 2019 and are due to be completed by the end of March 2020, please call the office for more information.
