We loved our stay at the Phoenix Star Bus. Welcomed with our lovely basket of goodies. Banner, balloons and cake organised for my partners 30th birthday. Kerrie and Richard were super attentive checking in throughout our stay to make sure everything was okay and asking if we needed anything. Any questions we had were answered quickly. The hot tub was luxurious and we were in it every night of our stay. Plenty of facilities included in our stay which were more than generous. Eloise was a gem also helping us too. Ellie our 2 year old Labrador loved exploring the bus and the outdoor area, curling up in her bed on the outdoor furniture. Despite the rain we had an amazing stay and appreciate everything.

Fabulous idea as we wanted to stay somewhere quirky but it just wasn't for us at this time of the year. There was a lot of condensation inside the bus at night and you needed the doors and windows open but then you either froze or got wet in the rain. Owners were lovely and very accommodating and the welcome packs were a lovely surprise, we would recommend a stay during warmer weather when you can enjoy it more as it did prevent us from using the hot tub as much as we wanted or sitting outside. Location is great to get out and about as we loved visiting Paignton, Dartmouth, Kingswear and Cockington to name a few and enjoyed a lovely sunny day at Greenway. Thank you for a good stay!
