Villa holiday rentals in Devon

Loved the house, we stayed for Christmas it was perfect for our needs. The host had put up a beautiful Christmas tree for us. It was super Christmassy and a short walk into town for the lights and a few drinks in the pub. The house was warm, clean and the host was welcoming - we were so happy with everything! We had a perfect family Christmas all together with lots of space. The house is decorated querky and interesting - we loved it.

The comms and welcome were perfect. Great position with amazing views across the bay. Walking distance to everything you need. Very clean and tidy. Beds were good enough. Seems a little bit expensive for a fairly old style caravan but we had a great time and knew what we were getting so overall very happy with this booking. Thank you for being so friendly.

Had a lovely stay at Tracy’s place. Tracy was a wonderful host and we felt welcomed as soon as we arrived. The accommodation is spacious, quiet and clean. There is a pub and local parade of shops less than a 10 mins walk away and Torquay town centre is 20 mins down the road (the walk back is all uphill though). I would highly recommend this accommodation.

House was lovely, well equipped, great location. Very well located for our days out. We were 4 adults, and the house was very comfortable. Would definitely like to go back again.

Clean & tidy Friendly & accommodating hosts Beautiful surrounding gardens with beautiful views of the sea & hills. Very peaceful with the occasional sound of the sheep in the distance, I would recommend for either couples or Families. Thank you Gigi & Roland for another wonderful time @ Huntingball-Lodge. Fantastic sunsets.

We stayed with our two kids (7 and 4 years) and had a great week. The apartment was a good size with a really nice view of the tree’s from the main bedroom, there's a great view of the sea from the apartment and balcony area as well. The balcony is big and really makes the most of the lovely surroundings. The showers good and the kitchens well stocked with utensils, crockery etc. The beach is great and is only an easy short stroll away, the waves can be heard from the apartment. The beach bar / cafe was open 09:00-22:00 every day and was decent aswell. Nice easy communication with the host who was responsive with any messages. Cheers for a nice stay!

Richard's place is beautiful and the photos don't do it justice. The house is tastefully decorated, very roomy and has everything you need. It's in a picturesque location; sundowners in the garden watching the sunset over the Exe was particularly memorable and Topsham has loads of great places to eat and cool shops. Richard was a great host who communicated in a clear, friendly and timely manner.

Rose Cottage is a lovely, old fashioned, quirky cottage - with lots of interesting objet d’art to discover throughout your time there. I loved how it is tucked away from the street, making it a really private space. Danielle was really informative about the surrounding areas and was on hand for queries. The living space downstairs is really relaxing (two of us learnt how to play chess in the lounge!) The outdoor space is really valuable as, I should imagine, in Appledore having a big garden is a real treat. The location is amazing - a minute’s stroll down to the quay - with the wonderful local shop, John’s, a stone’s throw away. We had fantastic weather, having lots of hot beach days in Croyde and Saunton Sands, but also loved catching the 5 minute ferry across to Instow village and beach. The attics bedrooms were a little warm (it was a very hot week), but Danielle kindly provided us with a fan which certainly helped on the top floor. Appledore is a magical place with beautiful cottages, great restaurants and Sylvester’s fish and chips are scrumptious - the first time I think I have ever managed to eat a whole battered cod! Thanks Danielle for a truly wonderful week’s holiday with the family.

A madcap feast for the eyes! If you want a standard Airbnb filled full of IKEA then this place isn’t for you. If you want an authentic (and original) experience in a great location - then book it. Open fires, art, antiques, the sea all make up the DNA of Appledore and typify Myrtle Cottage as a microcosm of North Devon’s prettiest fishing village (that you don’t have to pay to visit!)

The property was amazing and so perfect for us. A really gorgeous and well set up property would definitely come back. Would like to point out that more toilet roll needs to be left for the stay though as we ran out very quickly

The hosts were great straight from the off, quick responses and really helpful. Information received beforehand was really helpful in our planning and made for a great stay. The property is great, very big without losing any style or cosiness. Large rooms and the hosts had prepped the rooms and the dining area specific to our groups’ size and needs, which was very helpful. The group spaces provide for flexibility especially useful with a large group with a significant number of children and the kitchen is excellent. Probably the best equipped and easy to use kitchen we’ve had in almost 10 years of spending New Years together as a group.

The house was everything expected and more. The amenities were over and above and made it so easy to feel at home and enjoy our holiday. We were a group of friends including multiple couples and there was lots of social space to be together as a group but still be independent with big spacious well thought out rooms. The house would suits friends or family looking to stay together,is suitable for kids and the fact it was dog friendly was a bonus for our 4 legged friend. The location was perfect, a short walk to the harbour and the sea view was beautiful. I had the master bedroom on the first floor and waking up to those views was amazing. Oliver was a fantastic host, quick to respond or confirm anything I needed. I would 100% recommend this home and everyone that joined us said the same. The home made our 40th birthday celebrations even more special. Thank you Oliver
