We had a fantastic time staying here!! The host Stephen was incredibly helpful with any questions we had and was generous enough to let us stay past our check out time when our car broke down!! The area had plenty to do, would highly recommend going to Clovelly as well as watching the sunset from the cliffs backing onto the house. Thank you for such a wonderful stay, we hope to return in the future

Amazing home with loads of character. The living room was the perfect place to spend new year!
This is just a lovely house with lots of space and charm. It’s perfect for a group getaway. Aga Stove In the kitchen, big open fires in the living spaces, great conservatory dining room, and a pool table to top it off :) Stephen is a great host and made sure everything was in order. The location is fabulous with great beaches nearby and lots of nice walks. We live in London so to escape to Stephens house was just a treat for the senses. The house is equipped with everything you need, loads of fridge space, logs for the fire etc. Because it is their family home it is lived in and maybe not as pristine as other purely rental homes, but this is part of the charm. Highly recommend it. We loved it for new year as it so cosy but it must also be fabulous in the summer with the beautiful beaches. Thanks Stephen for making this house our home for new year.
