    Nice cottage, great facilities to host a baby (cot, highchair, toys, stair gate). very peaceful setting. not too far away from the beaches and the outdoor pool was a great hit.

    Nothing not to like

    Spacious and well equipped. The beds were all very comfortable and the bathroom was clean and functional. Large lounge with a decent table and chairs too. Quiet complex within reach of several towns and beaches A really nice little cottage we will enjoy returning to in the future

    We really enjoyed our few days at Sandpiper Cottage and would be happy to stay there again.

    We were surprised to find out that the En Suite was only a basin and shower with no toilet. This could perhaps be mentioned in the details, although the upstairs shared bathroom is very accessible. We had planned to use the Food van on site one evening but found it was shut, although we had no notification of this. Hopefully this is a rare occurrence.

    The cottage was nicely decorated and fitted out with all we needed. Beds and sofa were very comfortable. The cream tea awaiting us on arrival was a nice surprise. The site is in a fantastic location for visiting the North Devon coast and the pool was lovely and warm.

    A great find! Just perfect family home for the kids with so much space for them to play outside and make friends, and of course the heated pool is such a bonus. Beautiful beaches close by and a friendly safe feel to the site when staying in, which is very well maintained. Very impressed overall. Comfortable beds and great items in the house such as the Wii and Disney channels, all appreciated! Excellent communication with our hosts and a lovely thoughtful welcome having some tea items left for us. We’d happily return.

    The only gripe we had was the first day, there wasn't much hot water but after boosting the hot water setting it was fine the second day. There was also an issue with the central heating as it kept switching itself on even though it was set to a low temperature manually.

    The holiday cottage was perfect for what we needed. It had all the facilities we needed and more. Comfortable beds and cosy living room. In the evenings it was nice to be able to watch Netflix and other platforms that were available on the tv which was a pleasant bonus. We were very thankful there was a travel cot provided and a high chair. The cottage grounds were peaceful and well kept and there was a nice little park for our toddler to play in. We Will definitely return in the future. Thank you 😊

    There wasn’t really anything I didn’t like. Walking down the path in the rain was quite muddy and slippery but that’s to do with the weather. We loved the property.

    It was really cosy and had everything we needed for our stay. The showers were great and the sofa was comfy. We all slept well.

    it looked like the soap in the bathrooms had been really watered down. It was fine in the kitchen though. It’s only a small thing and we’d definitely visit again 😁

    Great location, nicely furnished, nice touch leaving milk and the scones. Can see it’s been thoughtfully set out for people to use.
