“Moor House,Totnes”

Reviewed 22 Jul 2022

A well loved, spacious family house . We were a family of 9 who enjoyed our nine nights stay there and appreciate what a lovely family home it must have been. Quite dark inside some of the rooms but guess that adds to the atmosphere! The house is in need of a little TLC, which in a house the size is understandable. Of the three toilets one only flushed easily. One only flushed using a bucket of water being poured into the pan. The third toilet had the handle coming off which had to be refitted multiple times. Some kitchen doors were in need of refixing/rehanging. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with crockery, glasses, utensils etc. Maybe overstocked! Some things I would regard as basics were either not supplied (like washing machine powder, standard tea bags) or supplied in very limited quantities (washing up sponges, toilet rolls etc). Communication with Matthew was excellent. A little disappointed no one warned us the Rayburn was faulty which meant very limited hot water and alot of time wasted peering at central heating controls! Previous reviews mentionned the steep drive, we parked on the road for most of the time which was fine.

“Very comfortable and well appointed house in a lovely area”

Reviewed 28 Jun 2019

Grand Victorian house which was extremely comfortable and with four large bedrooms and a further smaller bedroom was perfect for our family gathering. Lovely peaceful and sheltered garden was very relaxing in the sunshine. Also in a great area - very accessible to Dartmoor and to the coastal towns of Dartmouth Paignton and Brixham

Very comfortable and well equipped house which we enjoyed very much. Appreciated the food essentials which were left plus the scones, cream and jam which were delicious and a great start to our few days in Devon. Would certainly recommend this house which really is a home and hope to be able to return for a longer holiday. Thank you to Matthew.
