  • "We have been coming to Topside since 2002 and we just love it."

    A real home from home. The flexibility of accommodation makes it ideal for one growing family or several families. The location is central in Salcombe with all the best shops (sweet shop and Crêpe shop) just below the flat. The pool speaks for itself. Just perfect any time of day. Our only sadness is we will struggle to come again as our daughter is disabled and will be unable to manage the steps to and from the property, plus lack of accessible wet room. Heart breaking as our children have grown up with Topside being a huge part of our story. If we can return we will be back for sure. We could not recommend a more perfect place to enjoy your holiday in Salcombe from.

  • "Salcombe Parking Parking for the property is not particularly convenient for holiday makers, especially for people with mobility problems."

    There was no information given on the property details.The following is given in Holiday Details: (Fore Street) - this is a No Through Road. There are a few parking spaces on this road and you should be able to pop your hazards on to unload (and load) your car. The parking is only available for one hour between 8 am and 6 pm. Cars can be parked overnight but need to be moved by 8am to avoid the traffic wardens. The Information in the house provides no specific details of parking in Salcombe. In my opinion the most suitable/convenient parking to avoid falling foul of the traffic wardens that we had to use was at Creek, Gould Road (5-10min walk from property) where we paid £8.50 for 24 hrs for each of the days we stayed at the property. The ticket machines do not take credit cards; its cash or pay by telephone. This needs to be made clear in details of the property.
