“We were very pleased with the communication we received prior to the holiday very comprehensive.”

The house exceeded our expectations it was very comfortable spotlessly clean with the most wonderful views. There was everything we needed to have a brilliant holiday. We managed to work out most things in the end but a few more instructions on certain things would be helpful eg opening the patio doors. Overall though a superb place to explore the south hams we will be back

- Mr Hetherington, September 2020
“Fantastic holiday great location and accommodation would happily book again for next year if it was available”

- Mr Day, August 2020
“Very good accommodation meeting our requirements for a post lock down family get together holiday, enjoyed by all.”

Couple of points you might want to take on board; 1) Rubbish arrangements eg recycling/ general not clear and there was no collection in the week we were there resulting in a large pile of ours and previous occupants bin bags at the front (bin full) 2) One of the twin beds was found broken on arrival, bringing into question why it was not noticed in the "deep clean" ; however on the plus side this was repaired very rapidly by "Coast & Country" Otherwise we would recommend the property which is in an ideal location near attractive towns , with the great scenery of South Devon.

- Mr Murray, August 2020
“We loved the amount of downstairs space and that we could walk straight onto decking.”

It was toddler friendly. Very clean and high standard appliances. Good car parking. Near to Co Op Near to play area and fitness park Bottle bank nearby Easy access to beaches. Stunning rolling countryside view We would be very happy to stay at this accommodation again Exceptionally good value Thank you for making a family Covid compromised holiday a really happy one.

- Mrs Gaunt, August 2020
“A lovely, comfortable and well-equipped house in a convenient and lovely area.”

- Mrs Butterworth, July 2020
“We've stayed here twice now, the only complaint is we couldn't access the key from the key safe, it's so stiff and if your elderly or disabled you would never do it.”

It was hard last time but this time it was almost impossible, i think it needs looking at otherwise people might find themselves locked out Regards Karen Attwell

- Ms Attwell, October 2019
“We have used this property for a number of years for holidays in the south devon area and it continues to please.”

- Mrs Goodwin, September 2019
“The house was amazing, so plush and had everything we needed.”

A really beautiful open space for us all to enjoy and very comfortable beds. Everyone loved the showers, they were amazing! There was a daily battle to stay in them as long as possible, the kids never normally fight over who gets to go first lol. Only downside was the road, it’s so busy! Reversing onto the drive is best if you can. Also the floor was quite dirty, we had black feet after showering and really black socks. Other than that we loved our stay

- Miss Pickford, September 2019

We apologise that the floor was not as clean as it should be, this has been raised with our housekeepers to ensure the property continues to meet the high standards we expect from all of our properties. We hope to welcome you back to the area soon Owner relations
“Lovely cottage ,very good spec .”

.would definatly recommend this cottage to anyone and would definatly stay here again..a real gem

- Mr Hodges, September 2019
“Although the details did say a separate Laundry room we had a problem locating it and only when we went into Coast and Country Cottage's office that it became obvious .”

We had thought perhaps it was the shed on the terrace. Perhaps a little note somewhere would be useful. Our concerns about parking were totally unnecessary we had three cars and there was plenty of room to park and easy to get out without having to move any vehicle.

- Mrs Wallis, August 2019
“We’ve stayed here before and it always more than meets our expectations.”

It’s in a perfect position for Salcombe and Kingsbridge as well as local beaches. Highly recommend it.

- Dr Lloyd, July 2019
“Amazing comfortable home.”

It rained for most of our stay but we would have happily have stayed in the accomodation for most of the time. It was convenient for areas of interest. A lovely place, would love to return.

- Ms Smith, June 2019
“Me and 5 friends booked this beautiful house for a weekend away (from our husbands and children!”

) It was perfect in every way! From an exceptionally clean and house with an amazing view to the beautiful village. We are hoping to book again as we all had the most relaxing and amazing time. The kitchen was fully equipped and even had a games cupboard! The perfect getaway!!!

- Mrs Webb, May 2019
“Good sized common areas with all facilities required.”

Ideal for spending a week away with friends. Excellent location (WITH PARKING) from which to explore the area.

- Mr Sargent, April 2019
“It was a brilliant place and really suitable for the wheelchair, we are booking to go again.”

Thanks

“Excellent”

- COLIN,
“Veludstyret hus med en pragtfuld udsigt der varierede med vejret.”

Støjen fra vejen var intet problem, man hørte den knap nok. Husets placering var ideel for mange ture i omegnen, idet man ikke først skulle køre til en hovedvej ad en singletrack road.

- FINN Amsinck,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your positive review in respect of Starboard Light near Salcombe. We were delighted to hear how much you enjoyed the ever changing, magnificent views from this lovely holiday home together with its close proximity to many wonderful attractions. We look forward to welcoming you back to South Devon in the future.

“This property was more style over substance!”

It was bright with amazing countryside views BUT it was bang on a main road with traffic thundering past day and night. The kitchen was well stocked: the metal patio table and chairs were rusty and the coating was peeling off the legs of the table - dangerous. The floorboards in the unconverted part of the property were very creaky so downstairs you could hear every movement upstairs. Would not stay here again.

“Lovely cottage, furnished to a high standard.”

Very comfortable and extremely clean. Beautiful views from the decking over the fields. The pictures on the website looked so good, we did wonder if they had been 'enhanced' but they haven't. Well equipped kitchen. Bathrooms excellent, wifi signal great. All open plan downstairs - very sociable but enough space for our group of 7. Bit reluctant to leave a glowing review, in case we cannot get in next year!
