"Cranford is a beautiful home with every comfort thought of."
We were a family of five adults and there was plenty of space inside and out for us all to relax. Luxury bedding and towels provided and all the cleaning essentials there already. A lovely selection of books and magazines too. One little handy hint - the cutlery is in the island drawer above the picnic crockery
We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Do come again- we have found it a great place for a winter break- a totally different vibe- but equally charming. Thank you for the suggestion- we will add it to the house notes! Property Owner

"We had the most wonderful week staying in Cranford!"
A beautiful home which was incredibly clean and comfortable and really felt like a home from home with all of the amenities available, something which allowed us to enjoy the holiday to the max especially with two little ones in tow. Loved every minute!
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! It's a great place to bring a family! We hope you book with us again! Thank you for your lovely review. Property Owner

"Cranford is a beautifully modernised property and the owners have given every consideration with providing a comfortable relaxing place to stay."
The luxury accommodation and beds are excellent and the off-road parking is very useful. Due to its high elevation and many steps the property could be challenging for some but its position is also convenient for Salcombe and local bus routes. Cranford is extremely well maintained and one of the cleanest places we have stayed at. A definite 5 stars from us….hope to return soon.
Thank you for your lovely review. We love our house too and are always very happy to hear when our guests enjoy our home as much as we do. Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay over the Easter break, we often come to Salcombe for our holidays but this was the first time staying at Cranford and we would definitely book again, it had everything we needed the only thing that was slightly inconvenient was the parking space being around the corner."
Thanks for a great stay.

"Beautifully designed holiday let with everything you could need."
The tumble dryer was a bit erratic - water and filter hadn’t been emptied before our arrival. We had a fabulous holiday in Cranford despite some dodgy weather.
Thank you for your lovely review and v useful to know about the tumble dryer. We will make sure it's emptied by our housekeeper each week. Property Owner

"We had a fantastic stay."
House was in a great position with the bonus of parking and walking into Salcombe. Hilly and lots of stairs but worth it. I have knee issues and a replacement and I managed. House was beautifully furnished and the best equipped that we have ever stayed in. I hope visitors look after it and they keep the standards. Would definitely go back :-)
How lovely to receive your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear that you have enjoyed your stay at Cranford- our very special holiday home. Do come back- we would be thrilled to have you. Property Owner
