Its modern clean airy and situated few mins walk to beach. The bbq is great on terrace and there is a nice walk to Bigbury beach. Its quiet and safe. However the holiday park dominates the house and we felt it was overpriced given this and there was just one living space so No privacy.

Our family stay of 3 generations was wonderful! The house is modern, clean and spaciois and enough room for us all. The open plan living works really well with the children and gives them lots of space to run around and watch them. We liked walking to the beach and cliffs, down the lane, which took us 5 to 10 minutes with a 3 year old. The beach atRead more Bigbury and Burgh Island is spectacular. The only negative was the view of the mobile home park from upstairs. Hide

This is a beautiful house- very clean and bright and light. It is a lovely walk from the beach and very near Burgh island which is stunning. Although it is opposite a caravan park it is very quiet and peaceful and the views over the hills are lovely. The recycling bay is to the left of the main entrance to the complex and there is a food caddy, greRead moreen box for glass and paper, and a heavy duty white bag for plastics recycling. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is well-supplied. Hide

Interior was clean. Exterior area was very dirty when we arrived but cleaned on request. BBQ dirty so not used. Outside table needed wiping over. Disappointed that cottage was so close and overlooking the holiday park.
