Gara Rock

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly and attentive staff. Room was very clean and tidy. Food was delicious, indoor and outdoor pool were very nice and relaxing. Will hopefully be returning in the near future!"

4 Blue View

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment is amazing with fantastic views across the estuary. Warning though, the parking space is very dificult to maneuver into, my Toyota Corolla barely made it, by backing in through the entrance, anything bigger you will struggle. Double warning, the apartment is up a very steep and long road, even 30 plus's were struggling, and there are no taxis. After our first trek up the hill we always took the car into the centre car parks, but there isn't always a space (hence my £70 parking fine). If you are arriving on a Saturday, I recommend booking your evening meal before you arrive, as it is very very busy. The town is great and there are no yobby types, just a pleasant and up market town."

22 Bolt Head

8/10 Good

"The property was fine, being met with a pair of underpants on the outside banister didn’t bode well, but once inside it was fine. We are in our seventies so going downstairs in the morning with two cups of tea wasn’t ideal but we worked around it. The place was clean and very well equipped although we ate out every day. Salcombe is very niche and expensive although very beautiful and the natives were friendly enough. There are some lovely views a hilly walk away. There are National Trust gardens almost next door. We cut our holiday short as the weather was bad. I am a nervous passenger and driving round those Devonshire country lanes is not for the faint hearted so trips out were not a thing we did. Where 22 Bolt head is is a long walk, a ferry trip or a 10 minute drive away from Salcombe. The owners should be proud of 22, it is decorated tastefully. I would suggest getting some new jigsaws as the ones I did all had pieces missing!"
