“WONDERFUL”

You may need to be fit to walk up and down Moult Hill to get to Windy Heath but we feel it's well worth it. Spacious, clean and well appointed; excellent location, beautiful views and situated in a peaceful, quiet part of Salcombe. Pets welcome too which is an added bonus.

“We found Sykes staff very unhelpful when contacting them prior to our trip.”

The information provided by them changed depending on who you spoke to .They seemed to lack communication with the key collection office and the owners of the property. Paid a large amount for a house for 6 days, did not get our moneys worth at all.House was sub standard, cleaning issues, key collection shambolic, no wifi, no signal, dated furniture, locked cupboards throughout the house , personnel items in drawers, the list goes on in afraid !

Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your stay at Windy Heath. It is disappointing to read that the key collection and drop off was not as smooth as we would expect and apologies you were not able to access the property earlier than the designated check in time as discussed prior to your holiday. We work extremely hard with our owners, cleaners and caretakers to ensure that our properties are presented to our high expectations. We are disappointed that the cleaning issues and Wi-Fi issues were not reported upon your arrival, as we would have been able to send back the caretakers to rectify these points. We do ask that our owners have their own locked cupboards for their personal belongings and is very common in self-catering properties but we apologise if this was a surprise to you. We hope you still managed to enjoy your first visit to Salcombe and the area and hope that you enjoyed our little fishing village enough to visit again in the future. Owner relations

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.

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.
