“A couple of minor issues which were really quickly resolved by C&C.”

1) Bedroom One blind, 2) Bathroom towel rail. Overall fantastic service by C&C.

1) Bedroom One blind, 2) Bathroom towel rail. Overall fantastic service by C&C. The one niggle was the heating system. We found the house continually cold and this dampened the week. Literally. I would like to note that we did not fiddle with the heating controls as instructed and concluded that the system was not very good. Otherwise. A lovely holiday home that was perfectly located and had great facilities. We loved renting it for the week.

“The cottage is in an excellent position for any person wanting to explore Salcombe and the surrounding countryside.”

The private parking is an absolute treat in the town centre. The outdoor shower is very good for dogs and wetsuits. The dog gate in the utility is a simple, yet effective way to retain wet animals. All kitchen appliances are present, along with plenty of cutlery and crockery. It’s not suitable for a family with toddlers due to access via steps and lack of private garden. All in all and good choice... thank you.

“House was not clean.”

Kitchen equipment all needed cleaning before use due to general layer of dirt / grease. bathrooms needed cleaning. general layers of dust everywhere. food down sides of cushions on sofas and seats. empty bottles and cans under seating inside and outside. dishwasher doesn't fit properly, hence can't open door to use. fridge doesn't fit in the space so door doesn't naturally shut. fans in bathrooms don't work, so damp. Velux windows in bathroom and utility both leak resulting in damp feeling throughout the living space. nice enough house and position, but needs a lot more care and attention. given the costs charged, I expect a great deal more.

“A lovely cottage that was clean and very welcoming on arrival made even better with a twinkling Christmas tree.”

We were slightly concerned because some reviews said the property wasn't clean or was tired in places but we didn't find this and we are particular! The cottage is warm and cosy and has everything you need for a lovely holiday and is a particularly nice property for Christmas. It is in a really excellent location and is set up well above street level. The additional bonus of a large garage that comes with the property is a rare find in Salcombe. The bed in the master bedroom is firm and perhaps not to everyone's taste, the same with the pillows. The settee is quite soft but these are very minor points and a very personal view. None of this would stop us from booking again. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning.

“Great cottage.”

Location in the centre of Salcombe might be a bit noisy in high season but excellent when I was there.

- Ms J Elliott,

Many thanks for leaving your feedback regarding Dory Cottage. We were pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay in this lovely property, being only five minutes' walk to Salcombe's waterfront, boutiques and restaurants. Although we agree that the area does get busier, with increased footfall during high season, the property does feel very away from it all due to its elevated location - well above the street . We do hope to welcome you back to Salcombe very soon!

Following on from our recent posting, the owner would like to thank you for your comments and wanted to add that Dory Cottage has the benefit of full double glazing. We do hope to welcome you back to Salcombe very soon! Owner relations
