    ...was a home from home, comfortable and clean with everything you could need. The location was also ideal, close enough to all amenities, no to need to use the car, but far enough away to be peaceful. So impressed already booked for next year. Submitted by Anne on 05/09/2016

    ...be disappointed. The apartment was spacious, airy, very clean and with excellent facilities.The rooms were well sized and had good attention to detail A good sized swimming pool and table tennis table were also very welcome when you have twin teenage sons. The apartment is well placed too; not too far away from Torquay centre but far enough so there's little noise or traffic to bother you. Really enjoyed our stay and we plan to return in 2017.

    ...emails throughout the booking progress, letting us know about payments made, how to pick up keys, owner information and directions to get there. Will find it hard to use any other booking agency now - Blue Chip are the best! Our apartment was beautiful, spotless and had everything we needed for a great holiday. Will certainly be looking at booking again. Submitted by Jacqueline on 25/07/2016
