The apartment is dated and not what the photos imply. The kitchen and bathrooms could use an referb, It was also very cold in the evenings and could not find how to put any heating on. Due to a family emergency we had to return home early (Tuesday) so the we managed with jumpers and spending a lot of money in Jack Wills! We would return but earlier in the year next time.

Well fitted kitchen area and easy to manage. Very comfortable lounge seating, and bedrooms allow a good nights sleep. Only problem is the poor toilet flushing with both requiring multiple discharges after slow tank refilling to clear. The designated car park space is a great asset in Salcombe.

Nice peaceful garden to just sit and watch the boats. The parking space was a bit tight but was not helped by the adjacent vehicle being parked outside the lines. It did not move all week. Second bedroom, which we did not use, has no windows. Showers in both bathrooms need the heads replacing with something better.
