We've just returned from a very special week in Windward. Extremely impressed both by the apartment and the quality of service from Finest Stays. Thanks for making everything so easy. We've been visiting Salcombe for over thirty years and, in Windward, feel that we've found one of our very best places. Will definitely be making a repeat booking. It’s Five Stars from us.
