Beautiful cottage in wonderful location!

The cute, cosy cottage was warm, welcoming, immaculately clean and very well-equipped - a real home-from-home! Shaldon is a picturesque seaside village with a smattering of fab eateries and cute, independent shops. Also well-situated with good transport links to Teignmouth, Totnes, Exeter and Dartmoor. Carol was a lovely host who sent clear check-in instructions. We really enjoyed our stay!

Not ideal for a slightly infirmed person

It was a lovely property had everything you needed, but a couple of things were that in the description it showed a photo of outside saying it was property grounds but it appears it wasn’t, there was no outside to property. But the biggest problem was the bed sofa, again in the photo it shows two settees but it has been changed to a sofa bed which we found was extremely uncomfortable being so hard Not possible to sit on for more than a couple of hours.and the other problem we had the stairs were very difficult we know it’s a character property but it would be easier with a solid banister the rope is very unstable

Fab stay in a great location

The cottage has everything you need for a lovely stay. Very well equipped kitchen, fantastic walk in shower, amazing location and no trouble parking. We parked around the green when we first got there and although we then didn't use the car saw plenty of spaces appear throughout our stay. The village has some lovely pubs particularly The London Inn opposite the cottage, cafes particularly The Clipper and shops and if you want a peaceful and laid back break. Thank you

Cracking cottage-central and quiet

Just a perfect size for us, large enough to shake out, and have space, but small enough to be together. The bedrooms are on the ground floor, but there are blinds so no need to worry about leaving the bed in a mess. The showerroom also on the ground floor is spacious and well presented with a lovely shower. The first floor is the open plan living space with views over the postage stamp village green and up the street along the waterfront. We paid a visit to both the London Inn and the Fishermans (or FBI as it is known) pubs - both were on the doorstep and the FBI beer graden overlooks the teign. There are any number of local shops not to be missed and plenty of places for a cuppa and a snack... of course, you do need to hop on britains oldest ferry whilst you are here. We visited the old Walls vineyard - honestly nothing special, but Phil the local taxi driver provided an excellent and prompt service. We had a lovely time in Shaldon the people we met and the cottage were absolutely key to a wonderful time.

Lovely cottage

Nightmare! No parking close to the cottage, double yellow lines everywhere!! Wouldn’t have booked it if we had known, my husband had a stroke recently and he is 81 so the walk up a very steep hill to park was too much for him, we had to come home after 1night and lost the whole cost of the holiday.

Great little property. All the info we needed was at hand from where to eat to how to use the gadgets. Very well organised. Locals were friendly and helpful. Parking was a minor issue but we didnt really need to use the vehicle much as we just took the ferry over to Teignmouth. Well worth a visit.

Delightful week at this cottage

The property had everything needed for a comfortable stay. Situated in front of a lovely green space which was used daily by all for craft market, morris dancers picnic area and the like. Two mins walk from Shaldon beach which is delightful. From here you can catch the ferry for the short trip over to Teignmouth where we was fortunate to see the air show. Take a walk around the narrow streets of the village, plenty of good quality cafes and pubs providing good quality food. Walk along the coastal path, visit ness beach or venture further along the coast to seaside towns. Recommend the steam train to Dartmouth and River Cruise. Great cottage - not huge but plenty of room to be comfortable, comfy beds, lovely Decor. Pay and display Car parking is a 10/15 min walk away if you cannot get a spot around the green but not a problem to park outside cottage to load or unload. Hopefully will return.

Lovely upside down cottage

Lovely bright and airy living space with nice views over the green and glimpses to Teignmouth. Very well equipped, only additions that might be welcomed, especially if/when summer heats up, would be ice cube trays and a fan for the bedroom. Parking could be a challenge but the village car park isn't too far if you are average fitness, we managed to park on the green so had no issue ourselves. All the local shops pubs etc are lovely and we didn't need to go far at all for our long weekend break Would definitely recommend and also revisit in the future.

Cosy and Comfortable

This upside down house is brilliant for a short stay in Shaldon. The upstairs is a cosy, comfortable open plan living, dining and kitchen area. Downstairs is nice cool bedroom and shower room area. Perfect during a hot summer. Well fitted out, but the stairs may not be suitable if you have poor mobility. One pet hate, probably just me but I don't like to see an eclectic mix of mugs and glasses. Always looks like they are leftovers. Otherwise a lovely place to stay and we would stay again.
