  Overall we were very happy with our stay at the property.

  Just a few issues the owner may want to consider addressing. 1. Issue regards parking on driveway needs to be addressed more. Had a neighbour come round after a day or so to tell me to move our car onto the driveway. His manner was not good . The driveway entrance needs to be looked at. Firstly the kerb needs lowering. My car with 5 passenger's in was bottoming out when either drove in or out. In other words the the sills of the car were scraping on the kerb which has caused damage to my car. Driveway needs widening.... Not a lot of room width wise. Also bathroom shower curtain needs replacing. If you are not careful water can easily get on bathroom floor causing a leak in to kitchen below. Finally better instruction's need to be provided for kitchen appliances. Eg . Cooker, washing machine and drier. Also TV in living room as well. TV doesn't seem to have Freeview installed? Sorry to be picky....But have been asked to give feedback.

  Salcombe Parking Parking for the property is not particularly convenient for holiday makers, especially for people with mobility problems.

  There was no information given on the property details.The following is given in Holiday Details: (Fore Street) - this is a No Through Road. There are a few parking spaces on this road and you should be able to pop your hazards on to unload (and load) your car. The parking is only available for one hour between 8 am and 6 pm. Cars can be parked overnight but need to be moved by 8am to avoid the traffic wardens. The Information in the house provides no specific details of parking in Salcombe. In my opinion the most suitable/convenient parking to avoid falling foul of the traffic wardens that we had to use was at Creek, Gould Road (5-10min walk from property) where we paid £8.50 for 24 hrs for each of the days we stayed at the property. The ticket machines do not take credit cards; its cash or pay by telephone. This needs to be made clear in details of the property.

  I have reported a few issues with the property.

  The heating in the large lounge/dining area was permanently cold. We were having to use a tiny electric fan heater within the decorative electric stove. The night storage heaters remained cold even when the owner remotely switched them on. The shower leaked and come through the kitchen ceiling. Very surprised at the amount of water if it was just a sealant problem. Also the bath did not hold the water as it seeped through the plug. So it was quite a trial with 4 adults trying to shower/bath. We also discovered the fridge was freezing our food. This ruined fresh food and our herbs and Celery perished with being frozen. I left a jug of water in the fridge to show it was frozen. The settings were tried on Eco and middle temperature but nothing changed. I was quite disappointed with this property.

  Hello! Our stay at the boathouse was absolutely perfect. Being from Devon originally and residing to London for the past 10 years, you can never beat the feeling of being back by the water and our stay was exactly what we needed and hoped for. The boathouse location is picturesque and watching the sunrise from the bedroom window (in what is one of the most comfortable beds we’ve slept in) each morning was well, beautiful. We were gifted with beautiful weather over the bank holiday weekend (even returning with a little sun-tan!) and managed to get out for long walks around the cliff edges up to Gara Rock and bike rides over East Portlemouth & Salcombe. Thank you for letting us stay in your home - it’ll be a trip we won’t forget.

  We enjoyed a blissful few days at Horsepool Boathouse, thank you. The stunning watery views combined with tasteful and comfortable furnishings made it a perfect place to stay for rest and relaxation. It was easy to sit for hours, watching the boats bobbing and the swans swimming from the beautiful big windows, upstairs and down. It was a such a peaceful and tranquil spot. When the sunshine changed to showers, we felt snug and cosy, sitting by the log burner. The foot ferry to Salcombe was only a few minutes walk down the lane, making it easy for us to pop there for a delicious lunch. Stocking up on provisions at the local farm shop before arriving was a great plan as we then felt self-sufficient for our special stay.
