We both had a lovely time in this excellently located and warm bungalow. The only improvements that I would suggest is to check for light bulbs that need replacing. When we were there the light outside the front door wasn’t working nor the light in the 3rd (twin) bedroom. Also the toilet seat in the shower room needed securing. But otherwise it was lovely and close to all the facilities. Only a short stroll to Bowling Green nature reserve and a short walk to the famous Dart’s farm. We would definitely stay here again.

The bungalow was in an excellent spot, close to the train station and Topsham centre. Main issue we had was cleanliness of bungalow. There was bits on the floors when we arrived and alot of spiders, one of the single beds had a dirty bottom sheet and pillow cases, luckily enough we found a clean sheet in the airing cupboard and changed the bed ourselves. The TV was constantly loosing signal which made it very hard to watch. At other places we have stayed, we have had at least a pint of milk left in the fridge, but not here Other than these issues the bungalow was perfect for our requirements.
