“I suspect someone came in and fixed a lighting issue on Saturday morning whilst we were out - which we were grateful for as the sitting area light were either out or flickering on Friday night when we arrived.”

Might have been nice to have been informed that someone was going into the property though! A rug in the sitting area would have been appreciated - cold floor! Otherwise - lovely cottage - great location and parking. Managed to use the patio furniture too!

Great service from C&C over the Christmas Holiday - nice house and 'as advertised' in the centre of town but still private - very pleased and would recommend - thank you

“No perfect for a week away and ideally situated just 2 mins walk into the centre-real benefit especially in the summer is the parking.”

It was ok, looked tired, chipped glasses, bed linen needs replacing, booking in November shouldn't make a difference to the standard of the property

“Nice accommodation but unfortunately the bathroom had not been cleaned so I had to do it when we arrived and the bed appeared not to have been changed.”

Not the usual standard as we have stayed many times in coast and country cottages and always been delighted.

“Great until the hot water died on our last morning.”

Many thanks for your positive review in respect of your recent stay at Lower Fernlea in Salcombe. We were pleased to hear that you had a great time at the property but so sorry that you did not have hot water for your last morning. A plumber has now attended and the 'over heat stat' was found to be faulty. This has now been replaced. We look forward to welcoming you back to the Salcombe area again soon.

“The apartment was lovely.”

Very comfortable and everything you needed was provided.
“The place was ideal for a weeks stay, not too fussy but it was up for sale and felt a little tired around the edges.”

One or two areas could have been a bit cleaner, we mopped the whole downstairs area on arrival

“Lovely apartment, thoroughly enjoyed our stay.”

2 points to note: the bin lid did not work and my brand new car had 3 big White patches on the roof and windscreen of milky white paint presumably caused by the driving rain into the open carport. It has been quite tricky to get off. Staff at C and C clearly were aware of the issue, might be worth warning future residents.

Thank you for your review in respect of Lower Fernlea in Salcombe. We were delighted to hear that you thoroughly enjoyed your stay in this lovely apartment. We are grateful for your feedback regarding the bin lid and a replacement is now being organised. The issue with lime residue dripping into the car port is also being investigated. Our Property Services Team is hoping to establish if there is anything that can be done to prevent this from happening again. Thanks, once again, for your valuable feedback. We do hope you choose to stay with us in the future. Owner relations

Nice apartment. Sleeps 4 but not equipped properly for 4. Needs a few diy jobs but nothing that would spoil your stay. Lovely sun terrace.
“Spacious & nicely decorated.”

A great property for a family break with a dog. Great location & area.

“Great property & location in Salcombe, opposite the park & close to Main Street.”

Modern, spacious & clean decor. Worked very well for our family & dog. Great outdoor space & parking space a bonus. Only slight downside was noise from surrounding property above. However, will look to book again next year. Great service from property company.

“Great location, as only a few minutes walk to the main street and estuary.”

Balcony out front was very spacious and a sun trap for most of the day, having parking spaces was great (officially 2 but we only had 1 car, would have been a squeeze to get 2 in). The house itself was well laid out, and had all amenities for a week's holiday. Spotlessly clean. Double bedded room had a relatively small bed in it, and the mattress was a bit too soft for our liking, which was our only negative

Lower Fernlea is a delightful property within the heart of Salcombe so we’re pleased to hear you enjoyed it. Once again, thank you for your feedback and we hope you book again with us soon. Owner relations
“Enjoyed our stay.”

Main window in the sitting room did not close properly - informed agent.

About the location

SALCOMBE

Kingsbridge 7 miles; Dartmouth 21 miles; Plymouth 24 miles; Paignton 26 miles.

Salcombe is a popular destination for walkers and families looking for a holiday by the sea and was once a major port. There are two pretty beaches within a short distance, North Sands and South Sands and further on is the National Trust property Overbeck’s where you can wander through the subtropical gardens. Why not have a more adventurous day and try out the watersports available on the estuary including surfing, kayaking or a more leisurely boat trip? Whilst staying in Salcombe you must take advantage of the locally sourced seafood which is served in many of the restaurants, pubs, cafés and delicatessens. The southern tip of Devon provides some spectacular scenery and picturesque vistas with a number of sandy beaches, lovely villages with thatched cottages and some fantastic opportunities for walking, including the South West Coast path.

Up to two well behaved dogs permitted - restricted to tiled living areas.

Steep steps from parking area to front door.

N/A Please note that there is a £25 charge per pet
