Beachside cottage, with stunning river views
Central location right on the beach as described. Thoroughly pristine modern and clean - plus Wi-Fi, that we had not even considered. Amy also included extra welcome pack in case you had forgotten anything which was very, very thoughtful. Best sleep ever - very comfortable beds and bedding. Fantastic shower room. Towels included. Hive heating, so was cosy and warm without being too hot. Totally fantastic experience. Would highly recommend. We didn’t have to contact Amy at all. She kept us updated all the way. Superb host, superb property and host. Thank you Amy. We had a fabulous holiday x

Anchors Away. Sea View, Pet Friendly Apartment
myself and my partner and our dog chez had a 3 night stay. looking for peace and quiet and that was exactly what we got. The property was immaculate. Shower was amazing and the bed was so comfortable. Many thanks to lisa for having us stay in your lovely home.

Seaside Cottage with panoramic sea views.
Really enjoyed our stay, group of 4 plus small dog and we all had a great time.Loved the beach and the beach bar near by.Great place to explore from and went to Bournemouth ( got ladies into Nici Spa which I can recommend )and Mudeford Quay first a bit of crabbing and exploring. Thank you.

Period Townhouse (sea views from garden decking)
Chris was extremely responsive and helpful. Great place to stay with everything we needed.

SUNNY DAYS - Free parking. 3 minutes from beach
Lovely house with the added bonus of a parking space. The house was beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. It was very well stocked with everything you could want and it's a very easy short walk to the beach. I absolutely would recommend this.

Seaview dog friendly ground floor flat sleeps 4
We had a lovely stay at Carey's place. The flat was clean, comfortable and warm, with plenty of space. It was well-equipped with everything we needed and the little outside space was a fabulous sun trap. We found it to be fairly quiet, despite the close proximity to a takeaway. The flat is in a great location, within easy reach of the shore / beach walks and a short drive to the new forest. Carey was a great host, providing plenty of information ahead of the visit and also providing an extensive welcome folder. We would love to return when visiting friends in the area again in the future.

Seafront coastal holiday home near New Forest
We had a lovely 3 night stay as a family of 4 plus our dog and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to explore the new forest and coast. The accommodation was lovely and clean with lots of thoughtful touches, and finished to a high standard plus the view of the sea is a real bonus! Nicky was a great host

Gorgeous Georgian Cottage in central Dawlish
Spotlessly clean hideaway. So peaceful yet minutes walk from the centre of Dawlish. Completely safe walled garden for the dogs. Train station 5min away, great coastal scenery in all directions. Nice walk to Dawlish Warren and plenty of places to eat and drink. 3 generations and suited us all. Would highly recommend.
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

Panoramic Sea Views, quiet, relaxed, Cozy, Beach
Felt right at home we just wish we lived in such a beautiful place!!

Sunset strip
We had a wonderful few days here. The view is addictive! We stayed up way too late tracking vessels coming in and out of Southampton. The chalet is spacious and beds very comfortable. It was a bonus to be able to park the camper van right behind the chalet and to bring two small dogs. Sadly weather was too poor to make use of the pool this time. Perhaps we missed the instructions but we had troubke finding no 77. Advise looking at the site plan as you enter the holiday park. All in all a very good stay.

Sea view chalet, Shaldon, Devon
A delightful stay in wonderful surroundings, views are sublime, home from home facilities, dog friendly property with lots of walks, well equipped kitchen although we didn't really cook as there are so many restaurants and bars to try! Julie ensured we had everything we needed and communicated well. look forward to a return visit when we have a bit more time to enjoy ourselves.

Luxury Lodge l Sea view | Beach | Pool
Just WOW! a beautiful lodge, with a perfect view. Lovely, friendly, well maintained site. Emily has given such thought to small details within the Lodge, from umbrellas, to a fan. could not recommend enough. I particularly loved the binoculars, as I'd forgotten mine! on a clear day we would could see through the binoculars and make out Barry island. The decor in the Lodge is stunning, main bedroom bed and bedding was a dream, the dog loved being able to be out on the deck, and grass, and we had great peace of mind with it being secure. For our first ever Air b&b stay, the bar has been set very high! Thank you, a trip we will always remember.

Devon Cliffs Exmouth 6 berth static holiday home
We had such a lovely time at Sunset View. After a little blip getting started (which was very quickly resolved), we quickly settled in and felt right at home in Emily's comfortable and well thought out caravan. Devon Cliffs is a huge site but the van is in a great position in a quiet cul de sac so you're not 'on top' of other people. Only a 5 minute walk to the leisure area and shop and we had a lovely sea view when the sun came out! We really loved it and will definitely be back.

Pool, hot tub & water access nr Dartmouth
Stayed for around 4 nights and had an absolutely wonderful winter holidays together with my young family. The house is stunning the interior design is lovely and and the views are heavenly. Log fire with plenty of fuel was a big hit! pool and hotub a once a day at least activity for the kids especially during bank holidays. The fully stocked playroom was perfect for our young children. Really captured some great memories together with our family in this peaceful location and setting and came away wanting more!

Pebble Lodge
Another amazing time spent with family and friends in such a beautiful location. It feels like home and right now with a bad back, and not much walking possible, this is such a lovely place just to sit and watch the view change.

Seaside flat, pool, parking, 2 min beach.
We had a lovely time, the flat was very well laid out with everything you need and spotless. It was in a perfect location so you could walk to the beach and geo park. There are lots of places to eat nearby but just as easy to cook in the flat.

Luxury 4 Bedroom Pet Friendly Beach House Paignton
The house was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed with plenty of parking for all 3 of our cars. Goodrington was a lovely sun trap out of the wind, we loved Cantina! The beds were so comfy and every room so light & spacious.

Unique creekside floating home with adjacent cabin
This was our second time at the houseboat and we’re already looking forward to booking again. If you’re looking for relaxation and luxury on the water, this is the place for you. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Beachside chalet 5 Cormorant, with access to beach
We had such a nice time here. It was Ideal for the three nights we stayed, with just the two of us! Brilliant location, not only is it a stunning spot but we found it really accessible to multiple other locations on the island! Would definitely recommend to others!

Relax in Beer @ E27 Beerhead Caravan Park
Great communication, caravan was clean with incredible views

Pitch 30 Creek Caravan Park Ringstead dog friendly
Absolutely fabulous little cottage about 20m from a calm, beautiful sea. Woke to the sounds of the waves lapping the shore, swam each morning despite it being November, walked West along the coast to a great pub and East on Saturday to Lulworth Cove taking in some breath taking views. The little area the caravan is in is secluded and private, there's a nice cafe about a 5 min walk away and the decking area is the highlight to have a coffee on as the sun rises or a glass of wine as it sets. Really beautiful, we will 100% be back.

Stunning waterside Victorian home w/ beach access
Another great stay here! This time, for a longer period of time, additional cleaning and replenishment was offered throughout. A very proactive and helpful host who obviously takes pride in their property and guests. Would highly recommend to others and consider using again in the future.

Sea View | Hot Tub | Beach Walk
Lovely host and wonderful place! We were exhausted and loved our stay! Great place and wonderful surrounding area too! Will visit again x Thanks Susan!!!
