What our customers say about their holidays
Kevin - Verified booking
We had a lovely stay in Furneaux Hatch, itâs a very nice cosy little cottage.
Itâs a listed building and very well maintained throughout and very very clean. We were totally relaxed, as was our small dog. Everything you need is to hand and the owners (who are next door) had kindly left a small food basket and made us aware that if we needed anything at all we only needed to say⦠The cottage is right next to a lovely peaceful church and opposite a quiet cosy country pub, that serve great food, the staff in the pub are brilliant and gave a warm welcome and the dog got a treat and a blanket to sit on bye a log fire⦠Inside Furneaux Hatch, the ground floor shower room has been beautifully decorated, and along with the well fitted kitchen has under some floor heating.. The open plan living room is cosy with choice of lighting and two fires.. Just before our arrival new custom fitted shutter blinds had just been very well fitted, they look really nice and work so well complimenting the cottage.. Being a listed building I guess they are limited to what they can do but we thought that a very old lovely old cosy cottage has tastefully been merged with up to date facilities including good Wi-Fi.. Outside, with the cottage being quite high up it gives the opportunity to see some fantastic views all around, this gave an added pleasure to walking the dog down the lanes.. Although the cottage itself doesnât have its own car parking space it was easy to find a space close byeâ¦. 20 yards up the road is a post office/small store.. Right outside the cottage is a bus stop where No 3 bus stops on the hour linking Dartmouth to Plymouth and the towns between, so we left the car parked and went out on the bus taking in the fantastic views⦠Our weather was mixed but didnât spoil anything. Thank you M for a fantastic week⦠We will be backâ¦â¦

This is our third visit to Crosscombe barn.
We like the house and its position which is good for exploring the South Hams area. Whilst the upstairs is lovely, the place is seriously let down by the downstairs accommodation which comprises the bedrooms and bathrooms. When we stayed in September 2022, the bath and shower had significant deposits of black mould, requiring us to clean it before being prepared to use it. In addition, it was necessary to unblock the bathroom sink which was blocked with black slime and hair. We left feedback for the cleaner and in the visitors book hoping that the issues would be resolved. When we returned this September we were greeted by a fusty smell as we entered the house, and again the bath and shower had significant deposits of black mould, which required us to clean it once again. This is not a new problem, to which my previous comments in 2022, and a negative review by a guest in May 2023 (which has subsequently disappeared from the website) testify. There are now liberal supplies of anti mould sprays in the property, which, apart from being environmentally unsound, are not a sustainable or long term solution. This is a ventilation problem, and until it is fixed, mould will continue to develop, and at a faster rate as the winter months approach. Not a good atmosphere to be sleeping in. Whilst this problem persists, we are unlikely to make further bookings at this property. On a separate issue, a sudden surge in water pressure as the shower temperature was being adjusted caused one of the guests to slip backwards in the bath, fortunately not causing any long term issues. It is worth pointing out however that there are no grab rails on the bath and no non slip mats in either bathroom.

Merlin was nice, clean, cheery accommodation which met our needs.
It was better equipped than most holiday lets which felt thoughtful. Some places you canât visit the loo on arrival without unpacking soap but in Merlin there were supplies of kitchen cleaning materials, dishwasher tablets, laundry capsules, toilet paper etc. There was also good WiFi & excellent tv provision, not just freeview. And a tv in the master bedroom. Which was nice. If you are happy to drive everywhere & do not mind your immediate surroundings I would recommend Merlin. If you donât mind long walks you can access at least 3 beaches on foot. However, Malborough is not nice at all. The village centre is moderately pretty (nice, historic church), but tiny with no pavement & a constant stream of traffic making it hairy to walk through, especially with dog & kids. The location of Merlin is a massive built up council estate with so many parked cars it can be hard to get off the driveway. There are countryside views. The walk from Merlin to the village is an exercise in dodging dog poo. We love dogs but it felt like going back to a time when no one bothered picking up after their animals. Having said that, we had a wonderful time walking to Hope Cove (scenic countryside & coastal views), Salcombe (cycle path but next to a road so not such a nice walk but amazing destination) & Soar Mill Cove (pretty countryside walk with coastal views), all from Malborough. Only attempt these walks if you are keen, fit walkers & your kids are not too small or moany. Youâre talking at least an hour each way for all of them. The South Hams is a stunning area we loved exploring.

To start with, directions were sketchy and the place was badly signed from the road, and could only be seen coming from the opposite direction.
It was trying after a long drive. The cottage was comfortable but space was very limited. There was no room for a dog bed, and nowhere to stow our suitcases except on the spare beds. The facilities were pretty OK. Not so keen on the bathroom being just a sliding door away from the kitchen, not sure if that is legal, but shower was good. There was no room to do things like drawing, jigsaw puzzles etc for when it was raining, which happened a lot during the week we were away, NOT your fault! Furniture and beds were comfortable and the electric heating worked well, but some of the decor was 'tired'. The walls to the neighbouring cottages were thin so a bit noisy at times. Outside space for the dog was excellent. In the end we came home a day early because the cottage was so cramped and there was no room for pastimes to occupy us when it was raining, also no phone signal was a big disadvantage when my husband needed to be contacted by his Clinical Nurse Specialist during treatment for cancer and the builder working on our house while we were away could not contact us. Neither could we contact them unless we drove out of the village and the whole point of this particular holiday was to relax and not have to go anywhere much while we were there. All in all, the holiday did not meet our expectations of a relaxing week by the sea, exacerabated of course by Covid restrictions so we couldn't go out for a meal, but that also is NOT your fault.

Crosscombe Barn is ideally situated for exploring South Hams with all its beautiful river estuaries and lovely beaches.
There are several National Trust houses and woods nearby to explore and historic Plymouth is within easy reach. We particularly enjoyed a cruise on the Dart and discovering scenic Salcombe and quaint Totnes. The barn itself is spacious and very comfortably equipped with quality furniture and fittings, including a desk with lots of little extras. There is extensive kitchen and dining equipment and everything we could possibly want and more for a self catering holiday was provided. Overall, it is a warm and welcoming individual character home with plenty of room for 6 guests. The garden is a delightful sun trap and was full of late summer flowers during our visit. The provision of a small kitchen in the utility room was an added bonus - it is an upside down house so it saved the legs when making drinks and snacks. The village shop is well stocked but Kingsbridge is only 10 minutes away. We would recommend the local garden centre and farm shop for excellent lunches and a bit of browsing. The Avon valley is an excellent walking area with lots of wildlife. The barn is in a quiet corner of Loddiswell and so we had a very peaceful and restful stay. The views across the hills were a joy to view from the lounge window seat. We thoroughly recommend this property and thank the owners for their thoughtfulness.
