Lisa

This house is a gem. It has everything you need supplied, including a welcome pack when you get there, the place is clean, comfortable, welcoming and there is parking for 1 car at the front. There are so many extras in place to other cottages I have stopped in. The views are beautiful, a walking trail is at the bottom of the garden, which is slabbed and has seating out there if the weather is good. The owners have thought of everything, we will stay there again

Judy

A really nice cottage in a great location. Very well equipped and dog friendly. A lovely park to walk around just minutes away and the beach at Westward Ho! is amazing. Our second stay at this property and we will no doubt be back again next year.

David

Very comfortable and well appointed property, ideally situated as a base to explore the many North Devon resorts.

Linda

Property and location more suited to a family with young children with great park and facilities for children nearby. The 5ft concrete wall outside the back gate seriously didn't expect that and as an elderly couple just expecting to sit in the garden and view the river and for the husband to try his hand at fishing, the wall was a great disappointment and I would never have booked the cottage if I had been aware.

Jane

A well situated cottage with views of the river and new bridge, It is on the coastal path and is an easy walk into Bideford, All our needs were catered for , although my husband with hid PD mobility issues found the bends in the stairs difficult to negotiate, otherwise it was perfect.

Matt

Great place to stay Had a week in the cottage, great facilities

David

River View has everything we could need and we were as comfortable as living at home. It is ideally located for exploring the North Devon coast and close enough to walk into Bideford for your shopping needs. We love the view over the river.

Carol

River View is a lovely little cottage in a stunning location by the River Torridge. Perfect place to chill and relax. Supermarket, shops, pubs etc all in easy walking. Plenty of places to visit within an easy drive

Gary

We were delighted with the property. Location was perfect, views of the river are beautiful. Access to cycling paths very good and off road cycling on the Tarka Trail was excellent. Well equipped and furnished, the property is very comfortable and is decorated to a good standard. Central heating worked fine and constant hot water was great. Would highly recommend and would visit again. Morrisons very close by and others available. Enjoyed the fish and chips from Mr Chips.

Judy

A nice well equipped property in a great location. The walk into the town was a lot shorter than we imagined. One of our best holidays so far and definitely the best for dog walking. Already planning a return visit later in the year.

Mary

Lovely house with a conservatory looking out over the river Torridge. The house has everything you need , home from home. Towels are provided as is cleaning equipment, washing up liquid, a few dishwasher tablets and washing machine pods. Nice bottle of wine , some milk, tea coffee etc with biscuits is a lovely bonus. Have been staying here yearly for the past few years and love the proximity of local attractions and towns. There is a Morrisons supermarket very close. We will be returning.

Michele

Lovely, cosy cottage with everything you could wish for in a great location and with a responsive and helpful host

Neil

A pleasant riverside cottage, conveniently located a short walk to the town and harbour.

easy to find, short flat walk into Bideford itself and short walk to the bus stop to get the 21A which goes to Instow and Appledore. House is on the SW coat path and, if you are walkers, it is easy walking to Barnstaple, Instow and Appledore. House has everything that you need and is warm, comfortable and relaxed. Will absolutely return!

Denise

Absolutely lovely little cottage, a great base for seeing so many lovely places. The cottage it self is missing nothing, We have spent a month there, and can highly recommend.

Julian

The owner should be proud of what they offer at this property. Everything is clearly labelled with detailed instructions making your stay a breeze. All the little extras they included really made it feel like a home from home. I'd definitely consider returning without hesitation if we wanted to stay in that area again.

Sue

Lovely property to stay at very clean and modern appliances in kitchen, chairs and sofa and beds were really comfortable, the house is well kitted out, would definitely recommend staying at this property

Sheila

A Iovely comfortable property with everything we needed for our stay, even our dog Max was well provided for with treats, dog bowls, towel and a portable dog cleaning unit. Added bonus of a generous parking bay. Straight out the back gate and you are on the South West coastal path, from here it's an easy walk into the centre of Bideford which has retained a wonderful selection of local shops. For eating out we can recommend the Deluxe Steak House where we had a very enjoyable meal,

Fay

A really well situated cottage next to the river. Very clean and comfortable.

Karen

The accommodation had everything we needed and a lovely view too! Very well equipped; Netflix and Alexa were a bonus as well as a welcome treat pack on arrival. The place was lovely and clean, inside and out. Patio had a bench, picnic table and rotary washing line. Clear instructions on how to use appliances and Nicci replied quick to a question we had. Thoroughly recommend.

Deborah

The house was clean and in a perfect location to go for walks or visit other places. The view was also wonderful. The house had everything we needed, even a washing machine. We would definitely go back.

Carla

The cottage is in a lovely location and contained everything you need for an enjoyable stay. It's lovely to be able to walk into town, and the beautiful beach is only a short car ride away, along with many other places of interest.

Yvonne

I always take spare toilet and kitchen roll with me. Would suggest extra black bin liners, waste liners and kitchen foil be left, as these are items people would not normally take with them. I now know for future reference.

David

Cottage was very clean and well equipped. The position right on the estuary walkway is ideal with views from the lounge, garden or bedroom is wonderful when the tide is in. The doggie bowls, towels , shower and throw were a nice surprise, as were the doggies treats. Netflix subscription was an added bonus . To summarise we would highly recommended this cottage and itââ?¬â?¢s close proximity to a really dog friendly beach at Instow.

Phillip

Nice house close to town centre etc

John

great cottage, people, location. great holiday.

Lynn

Lovely river view. House very well equipped with all you could need. Quiet location.

Peter

The cottage was clean, well equipped, excellent facilities and warm and cosy. Nice location next to the river, in a quiet location, but only 5 minutes walk from the Center of Biddeford. Would definitely recommend for a relaxing break. Dogs are welcomed and have their own facilities provided for them. Will definitely return for another stay.

David

The propert is in an excellent location to explore the North Devon coast and the Bude and Boscastle area of Cornwall. Backing right on to the River Torridge, there are excellent scenic views and the coastal path for walking. It is in a quiet location despite its proximity to local shops and Bideford town centre.The property is very well equipped with a modern kitchen and TV, Alexa etc.

Carol

My second time at this lovely cottage in the perfect spot if you just want to chill and enjoy the lovely river views or as a base to explore all North Devon has to offer. Spotlessly clean, everything you needed including clear instructions for appliances, and the wonderful welcome pack of goodies to greet you after your journey including milk in fridge. Even dogs are thought of. Wouldn't hesitate to return and recommend xxx

Simon

Very thin walls and noise from neighbours including barking dogs late at night and early morning

Vicky

This cottage was in a great location right on the South West Coast Path and just a short level stroll from Bideford Town. The cottage was warm and comfortable for two adults and one young dog and the owners supplied dog bowls and treats. We had everything we needed and the coffee, tea, biscuits and milk was a nice welcome. We enjoyed the local area and walked to Appledore and Instow, getting back on the bus was thankfully easy.

Cheiron

Warm, clean, cosy accommodation. Perfect location for the area.

Jill

A very comfortable, clean & well equipped house in an excellent location. The welcome goodies were greatly appreciated.
