“Superb”

Reviewed 19 Jun 2021

This accommodation ticked all the boxes for us. From the informative welcoming instructions on how to get there (the last mile is single track road), the front room seats to the wonderful uninterrupted views, a big bed comfortable enough for two 6ft occupants, a full quality equipped kitchen and excellent water pressure for the shower. We had everything we needed for a perfect holiday....including the weather. There's a small shop and cafe on site, amazing scenic coastal walks in both directions, one of which will take you to a pub that serves excellent meals. Day trips to Looe (via the car ferry) and Dartmouth (on the coastal road) are also recommended.

“Bovisand chalet”

Reviewed 26 Jul 2020

The chalet had a great view of the sea, with lovely beaches within just a few minutes. However, we found the bedroom a bit too small. The duvet and pillows were also very synthetic feeling.

Response from the owner Thank you for finding time to review Driftwood No.7, we are really glad you enjoyed the views which along with access to the beaches are the best features of the chalet. The bedroom is on the slightly smaller side as we chose to have a King size bed which we think guests prefer. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and would love to welcome you back at some point! Kind regards Heather

Response from the owner Thank you so much for the great review. I know you found the country lanes a little tricky with the passing places and single lanes which are unfortunately part and parcel of its remote location next to the coast but we are glad the views and coastal walks make up for it! We would love you to stay with us again. Kind Regards Heather
