Parking
The property was really good. However the description gives the impression that the property has parking. It does not have parking, we had to park in a car park 10 mins walk away and wake up at 8 every morning to book parking for the day. If the property owner wants to claim the property has parking then he he should provide a parking permit.

Excellent Totnes Location
A lovely two-story cottage, very close to all the amenities of Totnes. We were very comfortable. Well-equipped kitchen, which was important to us. The outdoor grill, mentioned in the property description, wasn’t available, unfortunately. Too bad, as it was great grilling weather for much of our stay.

Great location
This was a characterful cottage in an ideal location in the centre of town. Mostly the fittings etc were fine but some annoying missing items incl mop for kitchen floor, extracor in bathroom and details for recycling rubbish. The biggest drawback was parking - limited parking outside property and all 24 hour parking a walkaway at a daily charge.

The property was very well appointed. We thought a lot of thought had gone into the furnishings and equipment. It was very close to the town centre which was a very big advantage and overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Enjoyable
Like Totnes, the feel of this cottage was a bit quirky owing to its French owner perhaps. Blissfully cool inside, top 20’s out, it had everything a holidaymaker required for a comfortable stay. It’s position to the town and river is great with the only downside being the lack of a parking space/ permit.

Nice spot but It could be cleaner.
The house was where and what we needed for a place to stay for a family wedding, if a bit dated. The standard of cleaning could be better; Indoors was ok, the outside needs jetwashing and tidying up. There was a plastic bag on the doorstep that had clearly been there for some time & the steps were slippery and potentially dangerous. Overall the place needed to be cleaned with more attention to detail. The radio needs a decent aerial so that it doesn't 'hiss' all the time regardless of retuning.

We had intended to go as a group but that fell apart due to illness, so only I can report. The property is very well appointed, and in an excellent location for exploring Totnes and surrounds. Highly recommended.

Cosy cottage
We found the cottage to be perfect for our needs and very clean and comfortable with everything we required being available the only slight downside is the parking but we were aware of this before we booked and it was found to be not a huge inconvenience the car park being very close by .It is hard to believe the cottage is so very near to the town centre as it is such a quiet and peaceful location. We would highly recommend this cottage and would book it again if we ever need to be in the area again

Very clean and well equipped cottage. Well located for town. No parking but can use Victoria car park round the corner-no charge between 18.30 and 08:00. Cooker thermostat might need looking at - I burnt a cake! (Which I don’t normally do)

The property was clean and a good location
It was in a good location the parking was a nightmare and the car parks were expensive. The property was clean but the stairs were very steep they were no good for people with mobilty problems. The garden was not clean and it did not advertise how unsafe the adjoining garden was. I thought the garden was not dog friendly or child friendly due to how next doors garden was. Good location for shopping in Devon.

A super South Hams bolthole
A super perfectly formed little cottage. We'd definitely book again. Very comfortable furniture with straighter back chairs and soft sofa to suit e everyone. It was really nice to see the Welcome Pack with milk etc for a cuppa after a long journey. Quite a few bits left by previous holidaymakers, such as oil, vinegar, etc, which helped. The back yard has a shared set of steps but 13A has its own table and chairs. We spent many uninterrupted hours out there. Its about 30 seconds from the short stay car park (Victoria), and about 5 mins up the hill to the long stay ones (Heath, Nursery, Heath Nursery). The RingGo parking system is fantastic.
