Discovery Holiday Homes Reviews 

Our four night trip was an escape for six 40 something professional women to celebrate our long friendship. We were delighted with the standard of accommodation. All six women were complimentary of the fresh cotton linen and excellent mattresses. The discerning cooks among us were very impressed with the well equipped kitchen and those views across the bay and out to sea were to die for. The living room served as a viewing station where we lingered gazing out at the scene of natural beauty before us.

Close by is the marvellous Hope & Anchor pub with excellent seafood and wine list. Particular favourites were the Cornish lager and whitebait starter. The staff were very friendly and helpful as were the locals.

We walked over to Thurlestone for lunch at the Village Inn where we received excellent service and delicious food of a far higher standard than one would expect from a pub. Again locals and staff friendly and accommodating.

On our last day we mooched over
to Inner Hope Cove to wander around admiring the many thatched cottages and picked up some arty objects from the Gallery behind the Watch House. Again friendly staff and good for a chat.
The only downside was that we had to come home. Six well-fed well-walked and content women returned to the rat race refreshed. We left our hearts in Hope Cove soon to return.

The Watch House is a beautiful cottage on the beach, ever changing views from the windows and well equipped for all you may need for a stay away from home. We stayed as a family of five and enjoyed everything Hope Cove had to offer - the beaches, walks, shop, pub and café bar. From the moment of arriving it felt magical and that feeling didn't leave us during our entire stay.
The cottage is fantastically located for playing on the sand, boogie boarding in the sea or exploring at low tide. I'm sure there is lots to do in the area but to be honest we parked up and then didn't leave until it was time to go home.

Lovely hut with everything you need. Not the best place to stay if you are on the larger side, the bathroom is a bit tight as my other half discovered (it did make our stay very amusing!) All clean with tea, coffee, milk and biscuits on arrival, everything you need provided. Great location, beach can get busy on a weekend. Would recommend and stay again.

We stayed at River View Shaldon for a week at Easter. Angela did everything she could to make us feel extremely welcome - she really 'went the extra mile' The bungalow was really well equipped and was ideal for my mother to get around in her wheelchair (after negotiating the front steps) and the wet room was very useful. The upstairs bedroom and ensuite were great for us too. The outlook from the bungalow is lovely and the village with its pubs, shops and cafes is just a 5 minute walk away.
I would have no hesitation in recommending this property and Discovery Holiday Homes.

We loved staying at this homely maintained Tankerton Magic property. The place was located in calm and quite area, with easy access to beaches, train station and stores.Its more than 5 star rating..

- the people were fantastic; welcoming, informative and always on hand to help
- the neighbors were friendly and even invited us in to give us ideas of places to walk
- the house was homely and had everything we needed; the garden was a suntrap
- it was ideally located, right near to a lovely pub and the beach and bays just a short drive away!
- I think our stay here helped me and my girlfriend fall in love a little more; it was perfect

We had a wonderful holiday in this truely wonderful place. The house was very spacious with beautiful and modern furniture in every room, also very well equiped with anything you need and very clean! Also the owners gave us a very warm welcome and made us almost feel like home! A big thank you for that!
Summarized in two words: Just perfect!

Great spot in Hope Cove. Will be brilliant during the warmer months when doors and windows can be left open.
Log fires were good if you had the wood.
Kitchen is cold and not in it long enough to light fire.
View from upstairs living room is one of the best in Hope Cove.

We were a small walking group staying at No 5 Coastguard Cottages. The accommodation was of a very high standard and was warm and comfortable. The views from the cottage were of a beautiful seascape and we were able to walk the coastal footpath from the house. The wildlife of the area was outstanding and the local history was also very interesting. In all an excellent place to stay.

Beautiful house that is well maintain and very comfortable. Has great facilities and outstanding views. Staff very helpful and quiet caretakers. All in a brilliant place for us to have our company meeting and stay a few nights to enjoy the Brixham pubs and restaurants.

Clean, warm and welcoming. Great facilities and met every requirment. Would defentally book again and again.

We stayed in The Lighthouse. The quality of the apartment it truly 5 star as is the location and the views. There was lots for our young family to do and would not hesitate to recommend this property. The warm welcome from the managers and ongoing assistance was in keeping with the 5 star rating. Thanks again and we hope to visit you again soon.

You have to go a long way to get this level of service! We made a speculative last minute, late night enquiry for a break. Sue answered the phone immediately, called the owner, sorted a good price, spent ages helping us with best places to eat.

All processed, paid and sorted. Great holiday as well in Torquay! Even the sun shined! Traffic was heavy on way down, but that's the Govts. fault.
