"Me, my wife and 2 young children stayed here. Great little place and a wonderful location. Perfect to explore the coastline around Devon. Apartment is very clean and very well stocked. Facilities on site are a bonus. Deborah had excellent communication and clear instructions. Couldn't have asked for more. Brilliant."

"Everything was just amazing... spent a little more than normal for this room and it was so worth it. The restaurant was amazing as well... and the location was unbeatable."

"Little, clean place. It was perfect for few days away with family. When we had a little issue, owner responded quickly with the solution. Thank you"

"We stayed at Southdown B&B for 4 days in August 2021 as part of a touring holiday of Devon and Cornwall. From the moment we booked, communication from Helen and Brian was superb. From asking about any special dietary requirements, to sending us information about the local area, and recommending places to visit and to eat, they helped us get the best from our stay in the area. On arrival, they met us and welcomed us in to at their very pretty home. They had taken every Covid precaution, but still ensured our stay was welcoming and comfortable - even providing a small fridge outside our room. The breakfast choice was extensive and the food was fresh and delicious. The area is very pretty and we particularly enjoyed our day at the famous Clovelly village. Helen and Brian are consummate hosts, and we would not hesitate to recommend them to our friends, or stay there again when we next visit the area."

"Bailey Cottage has the most beautiful surroundings. The cottage itself was very clean. The garden was fully enclosed with chicken wire to prevent your dogs going under the fence. -perfect. There was an abundance of pretty flowered pots with a very well maintained gardens and grounds. The different birds spotted on the feeders was lovely to watch. We loved the remote area but with easy access to the SW Coastal path and the dog friendly pubs. The cottage is nice and quiet (except for when our dog barks). It is also pitch dark at night which was really good. There are sensor lights outside. Even though is was a contactless tour around the cottage etc you are given a very detailed email of the cottages facilities. Martin was always easily contactable if needed. We visited Clovelly, Docton Mill Gardens with a walk to Spekes Mill mouth waterfall, Brownsham to Blackchurch rock, Harland Point Lighthouse to Abbey River, Saunton Beach, Ilfracombe and from Clovelly to Angel Wings. Also dinner at The Hart Inn, The Kings Arms and The Hoops Inn. We throughly enjoyed our week away."

"Shipload Cottage was absolutely perfect in every way. It is exactly as described on here. It was spotlessly clean and welcoming, even though certain items, I am told, had been removed due to Covid19. It’s a very quirky little cottage, with the kitchen and en-suite bedroom downstairs and the main bedroom and bathroom upstairs. Everything you need in the kitchen is there and the addition of a table top freezer is very handy. The hot water is plentiful and a nice soak in the bath, after an extremely long journey down from the Midlands, was most welcome. We sat out most evenings on the little patio area, taking in the beautiful views over the fields. Their woodlands, unfortunately, were not open to walk through which was a shame, but even though the cottage is very remote, you can easily get anywhere in Devon from it. The village of Hartland is a couple of miles down the road and a pleasant walk if you’re up to it. The beach at Hartland Quay was stunning. It’s very rocky, but can be walked over in strong shoes. We were blessed to have had good weather which just made the whole view there quite spectacular - especially the way the rocks had worn away over the years! Very rugged, but breathtaking. Clovelly is about 3.5 miles away - we went with the intention of staying a couple of hours and then going on somewhere else, but there was so much to see we stayed all day, enjoying a jug of sangria on the quay. Clovelly village is a Heritage site and owned privately by a family. It is totally cobbled everywhere and the little streets down to the quay are very steep - although there is a landrover service to and from the village. We had a fantastic time in Devon, and going back each evening to Shipload Cottage was the icing on the cake! Martin, the manager was very helpful and if we needed anything, we only had to ask. We were so impressed with Shipload Cottage, we booked a two week stay there next Summer, too!!"
