Mrs Leanne Hedden
Amazing property, very well equipped, and we had a fantastic week there, despite some dodgy weather. Would so love to have been able to make use of the patio and its furniture - must be a real suntrap in the height of summer.

Shaldon was a relatively quite coastal resort with lovely properties and plenty to do in the local vicinity. Property was a lovely house, spacious and very well placed for Ness Cove and Shaldon itself - the steep drive was not as bad as previous guests had indicated (our ages 11-70). Ferry to Teignmouth was great and Teignmouth was a really well kept resort with plenty of lovely restaurants. Highlights of our week - Dinner at Fresco, Teignmouth; afternoon tea at Ode café, Shaldon; Devon Sea Safari boat trip from Teignmouth; Coasteering with Rock Solid and beautiful walks on and around Dartmoor
