Sea Peep

This was our 3rd stay at Sea Peeps and as always we loved it and the weather for Whit Week was absolutely perfect .

I did meet the owner by chance when he collected children’s beach equipment from the garage and I took the opportunity to tell him how much we like Sea Peeps . The house and garden are extremely well maintained and the standard has been excellent on each stay over the years .

As a group of adults it was an ideal base.

The house had all the facilities we needed and was very comfortable. The neighborhood was lovely and quiet and with a village pub only a 10 minute walk.

Sea Peep is a fantastic place to stay, situated on an exclusive private estate.

The property is spacious, comfortable, well appointed and located in the charming village of Thurlestone. We thoroughly enjoyed our week’s holiday, spending time on the lovely local beaches and walking the coastal path. I cannot recommend Sea Peep highly enough.

Excellent property in amazing location.

Very comfortable and relaxing week. Could do with a couple of fans for the bedrooms as windows very small. Welcome pack with information on bins etc needs updating so clearer and easier to read.

What an excellent property, perfect for our stay, great location.

Also a bonus having Sky tv, watched the Lions and F1 !

Just 2 minor things The carpets on the stairway require a deep clean as they smell of dogs The sofa’s as comfortable as they are the cushions are far to big However this is our second year staying in this cottage and we had a great New Year break

A welcome pack, perhaps some milk and biscuits for a cup of tea, would be welcome.

A few more pint glasses would be useful. Not vital but the grass needs cutting. Otherwise excellent, ground source heating very effective, plenty of hot water.

Sea Peep is the most fabulous property and is in the most glorious setting.

It was immaculately clean, wonderfully equipped and extremely comfortable. We were so happy that we really didn't want to leave. The only thing that we struggled with was that the children were upstairs on their own. It would have been easier if the single beds were in the back, downstairs room near their parents. However, everything else was wonderful and it is a holiday that we will always remember. Thankyou for everything.

A lovely house in a lovely quiet location.

Great property.

So much so that we have booked for next year. thank you! Really well equipped including kitchen utensils. Good situation within walking distance of beaches, The weather was rather hot during our stay and so upstairs was very warm indeed at night. Provision of a fan there is our only thought in terms of a very small improvement..

The Wi-Fi code in the house information book is incorrect and caused problems until we found the correct codes hiding under the comments book by the phone.

The house was lovely, very comfortable with nice views inside and out. I think new guests should be warned about the difficulty of driving on the very narrow roads. The trip to Hope Cove was particularly challenging.

Lovely house in good location.

What an amazing property!

There is so much space and it is beautifully kept. The layout is perfect allowing for guests to mingle in the kitchen and the living room due to the open plan set up. The views are lovely and it is just a short walk to the many beaches in Thurlestone. The sofas are lovely and comfy and the open fire is perfect. Bedrooms all have great space, especially the master bedroom, and it is very handy that they all have en-suites. The utility room extra entrance is also very handy so that there is somewhere to take off any muddy boots rather than traipsing through the house. Only thing we would have liked would have been a tumble dryer to dry any swimwear, but this did not detract from the stay. We loved it!

Amazing property, tranquil setting.

Pub a short stroll away that serves excellent food. Bantham Beach approximately 5 miles away worth a visit. I would 100 % recommend Sea Peeps for a relaxing holiday .

One of the best holiday rentals we’ve stayed in I celebrated my 70 th birthday with my family age range 2 years and upwards Thank you Sea Peep

Light, airy, modern, comfortable, warm house with plenty of space and a very good layout.

Improvements? perhaps some coat hooks inside the front door and a boot tray there too to make it unnecessary to take coats through the sitting room. Pillows in main bedroom very worn out and would like to have found a carving knife !

We were a party of 8 (4 couples) who have known each other a very long time so, even though the weather was iffy, we had a great time and the cottage was spacious and comfortable.

The footy table was a bonus! We ate in twice but ate out at the Village Inn which was excellent.

Perfect!

Sea Peep is a fantastic house, it is spacious, comfortable and very well furnished.

It’s location in Thurlestone is ideal for a family with young children who enjoy a beach holiday, as you can walk to four beaches easily, all with soft golden sands. The local pub is very welcoming and serves good food and the village shop is well stocked. Which all adds up to very special holiday.

Sea Peep is a beautiful property in excellent condition.

The house is very modern but also very homely and the open plan style in the main living area makes it a fantastic place to share family time. The kitchen is the best equipped I have experienced in a holiday home, I was very impressed. Also very close walking distance to the local pub, the beach and coastal path (approximately 7-10 minutes to each). I would thoroughly recommend this property.

We have stayed at Sea Peep several times and always found it to be comfortable and clean.

Upon arrival this time we found the house and facilities very clean, which in the light of Covid 19 was reassuring. We would recommend the house to others.

The house was extremely well equipped and had everything we could possibly want.

The only thing missing was a ball for the table football! It is in a great location and was very comfortable. We had a great holiday and would certainly book it again if we decide to go back to Thurlestone.

Sea Peep is a beautiful, spacious, comfortable and well appointed home.

Staying in Sea Peeps just added to what was a fantastic holiday. The village of Thurlestone is idyllic and the various local beaches are as good as anywhere in the world. I cannot praise the house and location highly enough.

sea pep is an amazing house.

It has everything you need for a fantastic holiday. The house itself is beautiful with a fantastic open plan kitchen, diner, Living room. The bedrooms are all spacious, all with their own en-suite which is great for couples or like us, lots of teenagers!The view across to Thurlestone is beautiful. If, like us, you like to walk, then this house is spot on. Our car never moved all week. Thurlestone beach is only 10 minutes away, Bantham, 35 mins and South Milton which is a stunning beach is only 20 mins. The coastal walks are also very impressive. A perfect place to holiday. We will certainly be returning.

Great house and space.

Lovely view.

Stunning well equipped holiday home in a perfect peaceful village location.

Sea Peep was perfect for me & my husband, 2 children and 80 year old Father in law to all have a lovely holiday. We loved the fact you could walk to the beach and village pub in just over 10 minutes. The children loved the rabbit that visited the garden each day and the bulls in the field opposite! It was lovely to relax on the sun loungers with a glass of wine whilst watching the farmer work the fields. I think Thurlestone is a great base to visit Devon as it is peaceful but near enough to drive to Salcombe and all the surrounding places. We drove to The Model railway in Babbacombe near Torquay and took a steam train from Dartmouth to Paignton. It was only around an hour away. I would love this house to be our permanent home! We look forward to visiting again sometime.

First impressions of the house were excellent, it was everything we hoped that it would be.

Thurlestone is a beautiful place with the golden sands of the local beaches only a short walk away. The area around Thurlestone is very picturesque with an abundance of lovely places to visit. I would highly recommend Sea Peep for a wonderful family holiday.

This was our 6th or 7th visit to Sea Peep and sadly our last as it will not be big enough next year.

It has always been a lovely place to stay, the only drawback being the inability to recycle rubbish which, in this day and age, is a priority.

This was our second stay at Sea Peep and we therefore knew what to expect.

The house is comfortable and very clean, and a great place to enjoy the holiday. We would book it again. We felt the towels were approaching renewal time but everything else was fine.

Sea Peep continues to “deliver” a fantastic experience.

Our only frustration is that all sound/conversation from downstairs is magnified if you are sitting/sleeping upstairs. Inherent in the design unfortunately.

We love this property!

We have had three wonderful holidays at Sea Peep and hope to return again next year.

Excellent

Excellent design and decoration. Plenty of space for families. Issues concerning lack of clarity re refuse bin usage (1 green and 1 grey/black ) both apparently for rubbish and different collection days, no details in house infomation file. Disappointing not to have recycling bin but appreciate South Hams maybe to blame ? Also a tumble dryer would be helpful.

Lovely house. Furniture a little dated but clean. Would rent again.

This was our 6th visit to Sea Peep and as always we loved it. Just wish there was a tumble dryer

Perfect house for three couples. We had a wonderful time with our family.

Pouring with rain on arrival it was a case of hunt the door key. Not enough sun loungers or sun shades.

Very high standard of property.

See above this is a poor response form!

2016 was our 5th holiday in Thurlestone and we intend to return in 2017. It is perfect for our needs, us as grandparents with our children and grandchildren. You can walk to the beach, pub and village shop.. also the tennis and golf course.

Sea Peep Is a high quality and very desirable property and is designed to take full advantage of drawing light inside. A nice dilemma to have was where shall we chill out? Upstairs on the L shaped large sofa on the mezzanine, or out on the balcony to take advantage of enjoying the "Peep" to the sea. Downstairs is equally as comfortable and having a large private patio and garden overlooking the gently rising and green landscape is also rather nice. If you want to cook you have everything you could possible need or want from a kitchen. Getting about is easy and a short walk takes you to The Village Inn and this saves having to use the car or call a cab. If you have small children or aged parents as we have, the short drive around to the Village isn't a problem or the journey into the coffee bars and restaurants of Salcombe and further afield to Dartmouth is worthwhile. Sea Peeps close proximity to the coast path, golf and tennis club if that's your desire, and miles of fantastic walks on your doorstep ticks my box. If you run as we do, a vista of magnificent and stunning scenery adds to the ups and downs all the way to Hope Cove and beyond. On this occasion and our first visit to this property, it was just my wife and I and we enjoyed what Sea Peep had to offer. Even with a full house you wouldn't feel crowded, or overcrowded. I wouldn't hesitate to take a winter holiday here and can imagine enjoying the warm glow from a roaring log fire in the enormous fireplace to greet you after a good run, or a bracing walk. What more do you want? A full cooked breakfast of course!

Deserving of positive reviews.

Fantastic house and exactly what we were expecting in terms of comfort, roominess and location. Only one negative and it almost seems churlish to mention it but there were no logs for the open fire (the property spec says that logs are included). It wouldn't put us off booking this house again though. We had a lovely family time. Top marks to Coast & Country and Sea Peep.

Very comfortable property and well equiped.

Beautiful house a real home from home. Plenty of space and really good quality beds and linen. Lovely location and walking distance to the beach and village. Would be nice to have a 6' bed in the master bed as there's more than enough room also better for the taller person! A TV in the bedroom would also be a bonus. We couldn't get the channels on the 2 TVs so show different programmes so could only watch the same programme on both which was a pain when you had an age range of 9-90! The kitchen is very well equipped, all that's missing are some dessert bowls. The house was very cosy and warm at Christmas and a great place for entertaining with the large table and upstairs lounge area. Would recommend this house to anyone and have done already. Would love to return in the warmer months to take advantage of the outdoor space and views.

Fabulous house and well appointed. In an excellent location. Couple of nit picky points. I thought they would supply a stock of items like bin liners & loo paper. Also loo paper - poor quality! There was also a shortage of deep cereal/desert bowls.

Excellent accommodation, well maintained and equipped

Outstanding property, beautiful location.
