"Overall we enjoyed our stay at Thornbury."
The house is comfortably furnished & well equipped. ( In contrast the towels provided were rather disappointing, both in size & quality.) The location of the property is conveniently located being near enough for those fit enough to walk into Salcombe. Also the nearby bus stop meant that we made good use of the bus into Salcombe & to various nearby towns. As the picture of the property, on the information provided, is actually of the back of the property, it misled us on arrival. Also having to collect & return the key to the office in Salcombe was for us (all elderly) a major drawback, given the narrow streets, traffic & steep car park.
Thank you for staying at Thornberry. Coast and Country have now changed our listing to show the front of the house as the first photo. many thanks , we hope to welcome you back soon. Property Owner

"Lovely spacious accommodation, facilities and kitchen equipment good."
We enjoyed our week there with our 21 month old grandson, who loved the space to run around in the house and garden. Great location too. I did find the upstairs double mattress a bit hard and would have liked a mattress topper:) but other than that, a great holiday place
Thank you for staying at Thornberry. We hope to welcome you back soon. Property Owner

The southern tip of Devon provides some spectacular scenery and picturesque vistas with a number of sandy beaches, lovely villages with thatched cottages and some fantastic opportunities for walking, including the South West Coast path.
