What our customers say about their holidays

  Our family of 11, across 3 generations very much enjoyed our stay at the Coach House.

  Location was great and we were on one or other of the local beaches on most days, even with indifferent weather. It was a very easy walk down to the closest beach, even with all of our paraphernalia loaded onto a beach trolley. Easy access to the Lido. We were there for the end of Carnival Week, which was a nice surprise. There is a Water Festival next week, and there seemed to be lots to do around the area if the weather is less than great. Overall, it was an excellent place to stay, with easy access on arrival using the key box, 3 house keys provided so that we could all come and go as we wished and the games room was enjoyed by the children. Netflix on the television was useful for a wet and windy morning. A couple of early problems were quickly resolved by the caretaker and owner. Worth mentioning is that the kitchen is a little small for a group of 11 people, but we got used to working around each other. There is definitely noise from the road which is immediately adjacent to the Coach House. Several of us in our group use earplugs anyway to help us sleep so it wasn’t too bad, but with windows open on a warm night there is noticeable traffic noise as vehicles accelerate up Dawlish Road. However, neither the kitchen size nor the proximity to the road would stop us booking the Coach House again. The children especially enjoyed going through the Smugglers Tunnel to Ness Cove beach.

  Great holiday home.

  Location close to beaches, town centre, train station, numerous bus routes, Shaldon and the superb ness cove and many pubs and eateries. Our family group of 10, 6 adults and 4 children down to 3, had a mixed weather week but managed the beach on most days, a train ride to Dawlish Warren (didn’t know about the horrible fun fair) and a highly recommended mackerel fishing trip. The kitchen is on the small side for a large family but plenty of included equipment and utensils. The welcome hamper was extremely nice and filter coffee, tea all provided. One or two of the bedrooms need twin beds to accommodate children or poor sleeping adults. Bathrooms need bathroom accessories. The dining table took a little getting used to due to size and uneven surface. The games room and equipment is great although the table football should be moved into the lounge to enable space to play table tennis. Garden space good, barbecue very basic. A great week celebrating a special birthday.

  Flat extremely clean and perfect for two but has some slight quirks which need sorting out.

  The blinds in the bedroom and the lounge don’t fit the windows. They end about 4 inches from the bottom. In the bedroom the curtains are so flimsy that they too don’t do their work. This means that you can see into the bedroom and right onto the bed from the street outside even with the curtains closed. It’s the same in the lounge but that’s not as worrying. There is no room on the other side of the bed for a bedside table and the shelf provided was hanging off the wall. We did inform the owner/landlord/caretaker who took it away, leaving us with no shelf. The shower is quite old and could do with replacing and the shower head and holder don’t match so it’s tricky to adjust the position of the shower head. We had lovely welcome gifts which we really appreciated but I’d prefer money to be spent on the things mentioned above.

  A lovely house, conveniently near to the town, ideal for a family of 3 generations and a dog.

  Great views of Teignmouth and the sea. Tastefully furnished and decorated. Well equipped & comfortable to live in. We liked the open plan design with lots of cosy and fun spaces which encouraged socialisation downstairs. The sitting room was ideal for us to get together in the evenings. The games room was very popular, particularly the pool table. The parking space was very helpful and the lovely little garden looked good in the sunshine and was ideal, and perfectly safe, for a dog. The outside sitting area trapped the sun from mid morning onwards and was pleasant to sit in even in late October. The kitchen was well stocked and the treats in the generous hampers were enjoyed by all.

  We loved the cottage and the location was perfect BUT the cottage suffers from a serious damp issue (highlighted by a previous review in June).

  The kitchen cupboards smelt damp and musty and we had to move all the plates and dishes and wash them before use and then leave them out which cluttered the small kitchen. Also we came down every morning to find snail/slug trails all over the floor and worktops so again a clean up was required before we could start our day. Another issue we had was whilst we were out on the Tuesday the owner took it upon herself to go into the property without informing us first to put the rubbish bins out for the following day, we were going to do this as per instructions. Apart from the above issues we would have been happy to book this cottage again in the future.
