What our customers say about their holidays

  The cottage was lovely.

  Lots of character and very clean. It was very well equipped, including items for a baby or toddler (highchair/ travel cot available/ roll out stairgates already set up upstairs and downstairs). The owners have also clearly thought about how they are managing safety with Covid-19. There is a garden (be aware this is not directly attached to the property), and a very small outside patio space between the living room and kitchen which is quite nice to sit at. The house is situated in a small, quiet village ten minutes drive from Dawlish/Dawlish Warren etc, and a good base for days out. Although no front drive parking, we never had any issue getting a space on the road next to the house, and there is a free village car park right next to the place anyway. Wi-Fi could be a bit patchy at one end of the house, but not really a problem for us. Those with mobility issues may wish to consider that there are a couple of steepish steps between the living area and kitchen. We stayed here with our toddler, and it worked really well for us. We would happily return.

  Primrose Cottage provided the perfect holiday retreat whilst retaining that warm homely feeling.

  It was equipped to a high standard by owners who obviously take pride in the quality of fixtures and fittings for their guests. It is located in a quiet village within easy range of Exeter City or the Devon and Dorset coastal areas. The private secluded garden was a particularly welcome feature. Although the village shop has closed, the Farm Shop of Powderham Castle is a five minute walk from the cottage (slight gradient but none too taxing) and provided a wide range of quality provisions. There are walking and cycling paths criss-crossing the area for those who have a mind to explore. A range of eating places are within easy reach (two Restaurants in the village) and the Fish and Chip Van which visits the car park for a couple of hours on Wednesday evening is a must! Our ten day stay was peaceful and relaxing and the cottage played a large part in making that happen.

  Turtle Chalet is a two storey, purpose built holiday home on a large, mixed accommodation type holiday park.

  The park is the best we have ever stayed on, well managed, very clean with a good range of facilities (some of which do cost extra to use), plenty of adjacent parking and within a 10-15 minute walk to the beach. The chalet itself has recently been completely refurbished with new kitchen and shower room with good sized shower and new floor covering throughout. There is a modern overhead electric heating system which is very effective as long as previous guests have not tried to impose their own settings! With comfortable furniture and all the equipment you are likely to need (except a teapot, but that has probably been sorted by now), and a nice welcome pack. Comes highly recommended for anyone looking for a self catering south Devon resort holiday, especially if you like trains.

  What a beautiful place to stay!

  The attention to detail was very impressive, it is clearly managed with great care by the owners, was spotlessly clean, and wanted for nothing in terms of equipment. We are Sykes cottage owners ourselves, so we recognise the effort that goes into welcoming holidaymakers. Kenton is a delightful village, with locals stopping to chat. Stunning Church opposite too! How refreshing to have a car park so close, which made the loading/unloading very easy. No visitors could fail to be impressed with this delightful house. Our Sons Birthday fell during this stay, so couldn’t have wished for a better setting to celebrate!

  We had a wonderful time at the beautiful Primrose Cottage.

  But were a bit disappointed the only local pub has been closed since March after being sold under auction, therefore our dining options were limited (the listing states a pub next door so this needs removed!). We had to buy groceries to eat more meals at the cottage but the fridge is on the small side for this so we had to rely on the cool bag we brought with us. Everything else was perfect. Some gorgeous cycle routes nearby & fabulous walks in Dartmoor. We also watched the transformation of the cottage on Homes Under the Hammer - amazing! So beautiful & tastefully done. Thank you to our hosts for a great week.
