Fabulous location & views

As a family we have stayed in various Salcombe properties and this one was the most spacious by far. Spectacular views and the location (10 minutes walk into town) was perfect.

Beautifull Property

My self and my sistor had a fabulous time at this property. We had a few teething problems to begin with, which the owner sorted. Steep hill into town kept us fit.

Excellent position, well equipped

Lovely big house, + parking -- a HUGE bonus in Salcombe. Lots of space. Roof terrace - although many steep stairs up to it, (& carrying sunbeds was a challenge !!) - a total sun trap. Kitchen a little dated but everything you could need. Except a sieve , colanders don't really work for rice.

Upon entering, smelt musty. In kitchen - dirty dishes from previous renters including mould in coffee cup. No key for back door which would be a fire escapeToilet - didn’t work and smeltLighting/Electrical problemsLounge - food on floor and rubbish & papers/magazines from previous people. Some lights not working. Main Bedroom - toilet not cleaned. Rubbish in bin. Cobwebs and spiders throughout. Window sills dirty and dusty. Requested bed linen. Nothing when we arrived, had to chase several times. Eventually arrived at around 8pm. Lack of general health and safety eg smoke alarms. The overall property was not cleaned properly. Didn’t feel welcome by owners, felt like we were being a nuisance.

First Impressions

Nothing says “Welcome to my home” better than a bag of trash by the front door! We took photos and sent them to the caretaker and heard nothing. I had to contact VRBO two days prior to our arrival because we had not received any information about check-in. When the owner did contact me he informed me that linens were not included! We were a family of 6 so one can imagine the amount of towels, dish towels sheets, duvet covers…added to the rest of our baggage. This property had not been cleaned professionally and so having to clean and make up beds etc is not a holiday. Brochures and info is 10 years old. It took us 2 days to find the key for the back door! The 10 minute walk to town is down a long steep hill. This is not suitable for anyone with compromised mobility or even someone pushing a stroller/pushchair. There is no garden or barbecue. We did not sit out front at all as no one wants to sit near a bag of trash! Salcombe is a lovely town, but this property was not what we expected.

Un bon séjour à Salcombe

La maison est confortable, conforme à la description sauf la terrasse sur le toit difficile d’accès et peu accueillante. Chambres agréables, confort de deux salles de bain, le tout très propre. Points qu’il faudrait améliorer : certaines casseroles et poêles doivent être changées dans l’équipement de la cuisine, et quelques torchons de vaisselle seraient bienvenus ! Salcombe et les environs sont très agréables, la côte et la nature magnifiques !

A week in April 2022

We enjoyed the view from the house and the spacious accommodation. We had a lovely time exploring the town and the surrounding areas. One thing to consider a walk back from the coop is a bit steep so I would advise to rent an electric bike. Overall we had a lovely time and would like to go back to Salcombe area next year

A good base from which to enjoy Salcombe

A spacious, comfortable, well equipped property. Well located between North Sands, and the town. Bit of an uphill walk back from the beach, but 5 mins from a Spar which is useful for food top ups.

Very large house with amazing views

I and my daughter and her family stayed as we were attending my son's wedding . A fully equipped kitchen , every single item you can imagine! Lounge with lovely views over te Estuary. The sun room also very pleasant to sit in. Comfortable beds and good sized rooms. The Master bedroom was huge with ensuite bath and shower . My only concern was the steep steps that run up the side of the house to a sun terrace and a small garden. Young children would be very tempted and a fall would be very painful. Not ideal for elderly people. Overall very good base for a good holiday.

Perfect location, beautiful views.

We had a great stay at OverRia. We stayed with our 1 year old and for us the location was perfect. Town was a short walk away in the morning for a coffee and a stroll. Ferry over to East Portlemouth is close by. In the other direction are North and South Sands beaches which we cycled to but the ride is not for the faint hearted, very hilly! All the beaches in the area are stunning and this house is bang in the middle of all of them. You can eat on the front terrace and watch the boats coming in and out of the estuary. The road outside the house is very quiet so does not interrupt the view. Communication from the host was excellent and check in very smooth. The house is very well equipped, has all cleaning equipment and also outside chairs, iron, clothes airers etc. Kitchen has everything you need. My only criticism is the same as a previous review; the house is clean enough but needs a more thorough once-over every now and then. There are cobwebs round the windows, light fittings etc. There are dead woodlice around the corners of the rooms. The windows are dirty and there are piles and piles of leaves up the stairs in the garden. None of this happens overnight and would make a massive difference to first impressions if addressed. All very quick fixes. The house is dated and with a makeover would look fantastic. However, despite these small criticisms I would definitely stay here again. As long as you have reasonable expectations as to what you are getting and don’t expect a palace, it is very good value for money. The house is spacious, big bedrooms (main one is massive) amazing views and perfect location, very happy!

Great Location in sunny Salcombe

We had a great 3 days staying at the property enjoying some late summer sun. The view from the property overlooked the beautiful Salcombe estuary, Inside the property was well furnished and off road parking is a real bonus in this busy town.

Family Holiday

All aspects regarding the renting of the property were excellent, including a lovely bottle or prosecco upon our arrival. Communication was good and information about the area easily at hand. We would have liked the property to have had a better clean: toe nail clippings were trodden on in one of the bedrooms by one of our girls, dead wood lice on the edges of the carpet and spider webs around the wiindows all could have been addressed...maybe even the windows cleaned. This did not detract from the fact we had a lovely time staying here. We all enjoyed South Devon. Thanks The Fords

Stunning Location

A well equipped spacious property. Two good sized bathrooms and a decent sized lounge/dinning space along with the 3 bedrooms and Kitchen. Fantastic location overlooking the Ria. A pleasant walk into the attractive small town of Salcombe and an ideal base for walking along the South Devon Coastal Path.

Well maintained, comfortable, practical holiday working space, owner very helpful and good location with nice but limited views. Quiet end of the village, not too many sea guls.
