“Where it states where the recycling bin bags were kept, it just stated back of cupboard.”

It would have been useful if they specified which cupboard.

“Beds were really comfortable and we would have had a good nights sleep except for 3 farm dogs that constantly bark and howl all night , I know it’s a working farm and you expect some noises but this was all night , every night.”

There is no enclosed yard to let our dog out I think this needs to be mentioned in the description. A soiled nappy was found under a chest of draws in the twin room , god knows how long that had been there for . Considering the owners share the same house it would have been nice if they had took the time to interact and ask if we had any concerns or just to introduce themselves would have been nice . It’s a shame about our experience as the let is in a fantastic part of the country and is a great location for exploring what is to offer .

Many thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback, however we are disappointed to hear the points you have raised. We passed your feedback onto the owner who informed us that he met with you on several occasions so was surprised to receive your comments. He also advised that if the dogs had been persistently barking he would have addressed this. We have also passed your feedback onto the cleaner. We can only apologise for the matters which occurred during your stay. We can only hope you had an enjoyable stay despite theses and hope to welcome you back to the area soon. Owner relations

“The cottage was charming, spotlessly clean and very comfortable.”

The location is ideal for exploring Kingsbridge, Salcombe, Dartmouth and the wonderful beaches and coastline in the area (although you do really need a car).

- Mrs Firmstone, October 2020

We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at South wing and were able to visit the surrounding areas. That you for taking the time you leave your feedback. We do hope that you choose to visit the South Hams again. Owner relations

“We enjoy self catering and have dogs.”

This place fits the bill and is a wonderful base for a visit to South Hams. The accommodation is excellent and whilst the kitchen is somewhat basic it had all the facilities to live and eat well. It is very private despite being located in a working farm. This was our second visit and we plan (hopefully) many more in the future.

“Accommodation was spacious and very well kept.”

Lovely bedrooms and bathrooms. Only slight negative would be cooking facilities and kitchen cupboards. Did have a large oil fired Aga, but you need to have experience with Aga's. There was also a an induction hob and cooker which was also difficult to operate. Although kitchen was spacious, there is a lack of cupboard and preparation space for food, especially if you have young children and are eating in most of the time. The only other small negative would be that there is no rear garden to access and the garden and patio photos as shown in the property details, face east/south east and if you do stay in, in the evenings you don't get any late afternoon evening sun.

- Mr Steer, September 2020

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us, regarding your stay at South Wing. We have looked to get further instructions on using the Aga and Induction hob. We do hope you choose to book with us again. Owner relations
Mr Clinton September 2020

“This is a really lovely house, reasonably well equipped, with Denbyware crockery of plenty.”

We would suggest a larger hob as 2 rings for five people was a nuisance, we love cooking on holiday maybe we are the exception, and another large saucepan would complete the set, but all the equipment was good. As usual when the furniture was to accommodate six people two sofas mean two rows of three, another armchair would stop that happening, but beautiful sofas. Dining furniture was great albeit chairs a bit heavy, but plenty of room. Bathrooms great and bedrooms comfortable especially the beds. The house was lovely and warm at all times with plenty of room to give five adults plenty of space. Although it is a working farm there wasn’t much noise to show that, although the cockerel did make one of our party jump! We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet place to stay, but easy to get to both Dartmouth and Salcombe.

“The South Wing is absolutely beautiful, its located in an excellent position to visit the local towns, villages and beaches.”

The accommodation is gorgeous and was more than sufficient for a family of 6. Would definitely rebook.

- Mrs Yvonne Bailey, Sep 2018

Visitors can take a walk along the Kingsbridge Quay, wander through the narrow alleys off Fore Street or visit the Shambles, an Elizabethan market arcade. Around the South Hams area there are picturesque ports, such as Dartmouth and Salcombe, together with sandy beaches at Blackpool Sands near Stoke Fleming and the two sandy beaches at Thurlestone. There are a host of small attractive villages in South Hams offering interesting pubs, local farm produce shops and pretty rows of cottages, plus further afield the waterfront city of Plymouth is a vibrant centre housing the National Marine Aquarium, historic Barbican Quay and plenty of nightlife, including theatres, restaurants and bars.
