Guests have enjoyed multiple stays, appreciating the well-equipped space and the bonus of having parking in a town where it's a rarity. While some maintenance issues were noted, the charm and advantages of the property seem to leave a lasting positive impression.
The property generally maintains good cleanliness, though there were comments about it feeling a bit tired towards the end of the season and a specific mention of a dirty travel cot. The cleaning team may need to pay closer attention to details.
The location is highly praised for its proximity to the centre of Salcombe and the amazing views it offers. It is considered a great advantage by the guests.
The property is described as comfortable and lovely, with special mentions of black out blinds and a well-equipped space. However, there were complaints about lumpy pillows, suggesting room for improvement in this area.
Facilities are generally well-received, with the property being well-equipped. However, there are maintenance issues such as a leak in the bathroom and a tight parking archway for larger vehicles, which slightly detract from the overall experience.

Wonderful house in a great location. If there is a huge puddle in front of the house - which you cant get around - the drain is in the middle of the driveway and debris / leaves will need to be removed with a screwdriver. Once cleared the large water collection soon drains. Great house!

This was our third stay at Upper Sheldon House. It ticks lots of boxes for us and we love the location and outlook.Unfortunately there had obviously been some sort of leak in the bathroom and the bath side had been taped up which wasn’t ideal with young children. It generally felt a bit tired and not as clean which I suppose is understandable towards the end of the season. The travel cot was really dirty along the top but that’s probably because someone had put it away like that, but it would be good if the cleaning team could check it in future.It’s desperate for some new pillows - they felt really lumpy and uncomfortable. Once the bathroom is fixed and everything’s freshened up, I’m sure it will be really nice again.

This a lovely apartment, very comfortable with the most amazing views. Its location close to the centre of Salcombe was also great. The archway through to the parking space is very tight particularly if you have a larger car but having parking was a real bonus for us.
