September 2021

“There are a number of minor maintenance issues with the property: 1.”

Doors to the terrace were extremely difficult to lock and often we were unsure if we had locked them. 2. Decking on the front terrace in serious need of power cleaning. It is quite grubby and when wet was very slippery 3. Lighting on dimmer with in the main sitting room appears faulty. When on flickered and we couldn't use it 4. Light behind mirror in downstairs bathroom did not work. Possible bulb failure

“1. Difficulty of contacting local office by telephone regarding local matters (We have used Coast and Country Cottages for many years and have not experienced this issue prior to the takeover.”

) 2. An outside tap would be very useful at the property at which we stayed (Ash Tree House, Salcombe) 3. The veranda could do with a thorough clean

“We had a brilliant week staying at Ash Tree House in Salcombe.”

The house is beautifully decorated, well maintained and wonderfully spacious. Salcombe itself is also beauitiful so we would definitely think about returning to Ash Tree House

- Miss Hinksman, October 2020

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Ash Tree Cottage. We think Salcombe is lovely too. We hope to welcome you back to the area soon. Property Owner
Mr Morton September 2020

“First time we have stayed at Ash Tree House.”

Our party was 6 adults in our family staycation. We had a fantastic week with lovely weather and this house was perfect with all the room and facilities we needed. Just a short walk to the seafront meant we could enjoy seaside walks everyday without using the car at all during our stay.

Mrs Smith August 2020

“Ash Tree House is really nicely decorated and well equipped.”

The location is good too with nice sea views from the decking at the front. We found it really handy to have a parking space too. The beautiful master bedroom could be made even more special with a super king bed! We would definitely stay there again and would recommend the property to friends.

Mrs Doublet July 2020

“It was a nice place and the layout works well for a family with teen children or two couples.”

It was a little tricky only to have one set of keys. There is a nest of seagulls on the roof which while cute, cause quite a mess on the terrace below. The gate lock to from the street also needs repair as do the sliding doors from the dining room. It would have been nice to have these open during dinner. Hence, some repairs and maintenance and the place would be perfect

The property

This imposing, three-storey property rests in an elevated position above the beauty of the resort town of Salcombe.

Ideally placed for a coastal escape with your loved ones, or for a relaxing walking holiday as a group of friends, there's so much to explore in this area of Devon, with Ash Tree House as your beautiful base.

There is off road parking for up to 3 cars.

Once you've made your way up the impressive set of thirty-seven stairs, enter past the porch to find three beautifully-presented bedrooms; made up of two double bedrooms and a twin room, all with soft, blue hues and a homely aura, it offers a lovely sleeping space to retreat to after each day of excitement.

The final bedroom can be found up on the second floor; an immaculate king-size with its own en-suite bathroom, it makes a lovely escape for the couple of the group, with glimpses of the town below being perfect to wake up to each morning.

Completing the ground floor is the gleaming, family bathroom, equipped with both a relaxing bath and a separate spacious shower enclosure, you can choose to unwind in the bubbles with a good book or soak off the sand with a refreshing shower.

Up on the first floor you can find the social spots of the kitchen/diner and the sitting room; the kitchen/diner makes a great spot to gather together as a family around the dining table, while the balcony doors let in a pleasant breeze from the coast, as well as the kitchen area of the room being a great spot to create memories while you prepare family meals with your little ones.

Underfloor heating adds a cosy touch.The sitting room is where the nautical theme of the property is most apparent, with its maritime decor accompanied by a contemporary setting, here you can enjoy unwinding in front of the gas fire with your favourite film playing on the television.

Again, there is underfloor heating for extra comfort.

As well as a beautiful first-floor balcony boasting stunning estuary views you can enjoy alfresco dining in the summer months, the property also benefits from a first-floor patio and a front terrace with seating, offering plenty of places to play and soak in your surroundings.

The local area of the property boasts plenty of family fun; enjoy a celebratory meal in one of the town's waterside eateries, or pack up a picnic with the assistance of the local deli before making your way to one of the two beaches where you can enjoy a day of watersports and sandcastle building.

Spend some time in the Salcombe Maritime Museum to learn about the enticing history of the area, or take a stroll along the scenic South West Coast Path to discover the National Trust property of Overbeck's with its rewarding views and subtropical gardens to roam.

Dartmouth is well-worth visit if you're seeking a day rich in history, with its impressive castle, its own museum in a circa 1640 merchant's house and not forgetting its picturesque harbour.

In reach of Kingsbridge and Torquay too with their own unique family-friendly attractions, Ash Tree House is a beautiful base for a holiday at any time of year.
