  • "We had a lovely week at Sea Peeps."

    The house was spotless and very cosy. Well situated close to the town - easy walking distance into town (although it is a steep hill for anyone who has mobility issues). We appreciated the little touches like the throws in the evening when it got chilly. The nightlight on the stairs was a godsend if getting up through the night. The house is well equipped with everything we needed. The only issue we had was parking as it’s a small drive, shared with next door (also a holiday home) which wasn’t the issue as such but locals were inclined to park across the drive blocking us in/out on a few occasions. All in all though a lovely house and would recommend if you’re visiting the area.

  • "Had a great week at Sea Peeps."

    It's clean and very comfortable well equipped. Everything worked, managed to watch Sky TV on my laptop via WiFi during the evenings. Just a 20 min amble into Paignton town centre either via the sea front or Torquay Road. Sometimes I like to get away to somewhere new to discover new surroundings, and sometimes it's nice to get away for a change of scene with a familiar feel. I think this may well be the first of several visits.

    Very clean property with all facilities within an easy walk of both Paignton and Torquay. Local shops are also very handy if required. Highly recommended.

    Clean, comfortable and not far from the seafront. Hedges could do with trimming to make off road parking a little easier, but very happy with our stay.

    Within walking distance to the beach and with good public transport for travelling further afield. Also the owners very thoughtfully left lots of useful little extras such as tissues, cleaning supplies and even tea & biscuits which were much appreciated. Thanks!

  • "Excellent cosy cottage with all facilities and close to both Paignton and Torquay; walked and used local buses - good service."

    Beach 10 mins walk. Lots of good local eateries. Off road parking another benefit. Internet reception could be patchy in cottage. No visitors book with info and to leave favourable comments! Would heartily recommend.

    Easy to access off road parking & the property was warm, clean & had everything you require for a lovely holiday. I can highly recommend this property if you are visiting the Torbay area.

  • "On arrival we did not know if both parking spaces were for the property so we parked over to the left hand side, later on in the week we had guests visit us that used the right hand side space and a day after saw a car parked there as we were off out, so perhaps there needs to be a welcome sheet explaining parking, and segregating and putting out waste, etc."

    ,as parking on the road looks difficult and recycling is different to where I live. The property was lovely and clean and the milk, biscuits and other provisions was a lovely and thoughtful touch, the property had a modern kitchen and bathroom and a rustic living room and ample bed space. The stairs to the bedroom area could do with a little more night lighting as it was very dark at night, the beds were nice and clean and had fresh linen, the pillows were a little too soft for me but you can’t please everyone :) Couldn’t connect to the internet and our provider didn’t have much reception, but internet is an added bonus and not a given. With regards to location it is well positioned for nearby shops (including a very nice cafe and fish & chip shop and for accessing Preston beach, however it is a good walk into Paignton, but mostly flat with a little incline so most people wouldn’t struggle to walk, and there is a bus stop nearby for getting around. I would recommend the property and would definitely consider going again!!

  • "We found the listing photography a little confusing -- Sea Peeps is actually a ground floor property accessed behind the shown stairs."

    The property is comfortable, well equipped and very well appointed throughout, although the ceiling height in the bedroom is deceptively in places. Very convenient for Preston town, the beach 10mins walk away and on a very frequent bus route. The inclusion of a Guest information pack would be useful for such things as nearest medical services in the case of illness and a shedule as to leaving routines would clarify such things as strip the bed linen or not. Overall we had a very pleasant stay.

  • "Excellent property in great position for Paignton and also Torquay and Brixham."

    Lovely conservatory and patio, cosy lounge, large fitted kitchen, bathroom with lovely large shower and attic bedroom with double bed and two single beds under the eaves. Lots of surprises in the kitchen with some tea, coffee, biscuits and milk in the fridge. Only thing missing if you have young children is maybe the need for a stairgate at the top of the stairs.

  • "Very nice stay, good location and reasonably quiet."

    Parked my car on the drive,brought a torbay bus pass and explored the whole area by bus. Bus stops just down the road. The property was well equipped (apart from no dvd), clean and bright. Beds were good, but as the bedroom is in the roof I had to be careful not to bang my head. Overall good quality and good value

  • "A couple of things spring to mind regarding this property."

    . There were no instructions as to whether we should strip the bed (and indeed what to do with sheets etc if we did). We did strip it and put all the bedding and used towels in the laundry basket, which we left in the kitchen, but others may feel they don't need to do so? No instructions to tell us where the key box was on arrival, nor where the door was for the property (there are steps leading up as well as two doors on the ground floor) so it was a case of nosing around to find the keys. Property itself was warm and cosy, and would happily stay there again, and would now know where the keys are and where we were going to get in! :)

    The property was very enjoyable to stay in and the facilities were great, however the wifi did not work at all over our stay at the property. This issue was attempted to be fixed but unfortunately it didn’t get resolved. I would recommend coming to this property, however if you need wifi connection or signal that could be an issue for most people but for a quick getaway this places is ideal!

  • "Clean property with just about everything you need provided."

    Parking available, secure outdoor spaces too, house is quite close to seafront etc you can see over the houses to the sea from the bedroom. A little clarity as to where the access door and key safe are reached from would be good, as from the pictures I wasn't certain but was OK on the day. I didn't find a toaster but there is the cooker grill. A dvd player would be a nice touch for families. There is WiFi but reaching the signal from the main house was just about manageable on the laptop but not from our phones. Not quite strong enough signal. Be aware that you have to come downstairs from the bedroom if you need the bathroom in the night. The stairs open up into the bedroom, so may need a travel staircase if you have little ones. There was no carpet on the stairs but maybe that is in progress as stairs woodwork looked new but needed finishing. Everything else was good though and these things didn't really impact our stay. Looked mostly recently refurbished and decorated to good standard. Lovely kitchen and bathroom. Clearly a lot of effort has gone in to providing a lovely place and things needed to make for a good stay. Really enjoyed our stay.

Perched on the outskirts of the bustling seaside resort of Paignton, you will find Sea Peeps.

A pretty and traditional annex set over two floors, this humble dwelling makes a wonderful backdrop for a small family holiday to the South Devon Coast.

Enter into a peaceful conservatory, a real suntrap during those warm summer months, where you can delight in a warm cup of coffee and your favourite novel before heading out onto the patio for lunch alfresco.

Back inside, a restful living/dining room featuring a plush sofa and two inviting armchairs, provides the perfect space to enjoy a relaxing evening indoors whether it be gathered in front of the TV, or around the dining table as you begin to map put your upcoming adventures.

Continue through to the charming yet contemporary kitchen that has been kitted out with all the necessary appliances such as a large fridge/freezer and an electric oven with ceramic hob - sure to inspire many home-cooked meals throughout your stay.

Finishing off the first floor, a well-designed bathroom with rich green hues and sophisticated tiling, an ideal space for freshening up following a sandy day down by the sea.

Take the quaint staircase up to the first floor and be welcomed in to a spacious family bedroom hosting both a double and two singles, emanating light from the impressive Velux window that decorates the sloping ceiling.

Make the most of precious time with loved ones as you embark on an unforgettable adventure along the coast, whether it be a relaxing day down at the beach before a stroll along Paignton Pier, or an awe-inspiring hike along the rugged clifftops that line the magnificent South West Coastline.

Enjoy a family day out to Paignton Zoo Environmental Park or Torquay's Dinosaur World, and be sure to seek thrills at the fantastic Splashdown Quaywest Waterpark.

Avid historians will relish in tours of the Torre Abbey Museum and Old Way Mansion, as well as the medieval dwelling of Kirkham House and the National Trust owned Compton Castle, just a short drive away.

Explore the luscious landscapes of the Dartmoor National park as you set about on an exhilarating hike to Red Lake Spoil Tip or wander through the enchanting woodland of Wistman's Wood.
