“An oasis of relaxation!”

Reviewed 25 Aug 2018

Had a fabulous time, the location is excellent ....very quiet yet close to beautiful nearby beaches and attractions. Torquay, Brixham and Dartmouth are all nearby. Accommodation was immaculate and well equipped overlooking an outdoor pool which was clean and refreshing. The hosts Piers and Helen were very accommodating and helpful yet respectful of our privacy. We hope to return for a holiday in the future.
