  • "Location is brilliant."

    Apartment was not as clean as it could be, but that is nit picking….., we had to wash the cups and glasses before using them. Windows and frames etc need a clean. Need to advise guests to bring their own chairs/lounges for the garden/pool.

  • "Apartment 24 is a fabulous apartment, with great views over the estuary one minute away from the main quay."

    Well equipped and the leather sofas bespoke for a perfect fit. Nautical theme throughout, loved the sailing yacht above the bed. Lugging of our baggage was a bind from the lower car park was made easier using the street entrance.( no lift to second floor) However, the 12ins step between levels in the appt. Made things awkward for my wife, recovering from a hip operation. I just can't understand why the owner hasn't installed a secondary step or a grab handle on the wall. Beware of the loud noises from the appts. above when they move and drag their terrace furniture on the balconies above.Very annoying.

  • "The step in each room they highlighted in the apartment are much higher than normal stair steps and require a hand rail on each wall to assist guests of a certain age There are two flights of stairs to the apartment and it is a long way from the car park with long corridors to the apartment which we found difficult carrying all our luggage so far There is a lift in the building but this does not go to Flat 24 As in a previous review the quilt was badly stained so perhaps now is the time to replace it!"

  • "The property is lovely, great views, great position in the heart of Salcombe, everything you need in the apartment to make your stay comfortable."

    On the last day we were asked to strip the bed which was no problem to us but we were not happy with the duvet, it was quite badly stained and a bit grubby. We were also a little upset by the parking. We adhered to the park in your numbered bay but there were lots of workmen in vans and pickup trucks on the car park so we were a little concerned about our car being damaged whilst it was parked. All in all a great place we just had a few issues that we thought needed to be mentioned.

  • "The steps up to the French windows are quite steep ,making it difficult to reach the bathroom."

    As I need a walking stick,so should say in the advert,also need some instruction about whether to strip the bed or not and where to put used towels etc. Otherwise the apartment is amazing and we loved our stay with the lovely views from the windows. .

    Just right for a couple. Perfectly situated and having the garden a pool to relax in was special, given the village centre location.

  • "The apartment was lovely and the views fantastic."

    a very well equipped kitchen. In the information when booking we were not told there was no lift up to the second floor. My husband has mobility issues so our arrival was a nightmare given that there was no drop off, blue badge parking or unloading at the front of the building and I had to carry our luggage from the bottom car park up two flights of stairs. When we worked out the access out on to the street it made it workable but there is no parking there. When departing I loaded the car from the street level at 6 00 am when the road is quiet. I do think the no lift ought to be made quite clear on the information about the property. It wouldn't stop us returning as the location is superb but it would have been helpful to know the logistics before we arrived.

  • "There is no signage to the flat from either entrance."

    The main entrance simply omits any directions and the lift weirdly doesnt ho to one end of 2nd floor. the other entrance is only shown as entrance to the restaurant. Not great when lugging heavy bags around. Needs signage.

The property

Resting on the coastline of Salcombe in Devon overlooking the harbour is Apartment 24.

This fabulous first-floor apartment offers spectacular views across Salcombe Harbour, with a sleek, open-plan interior inspired by the design of a luxury yacht to make the best use of available space.

Apartment 24’s fabulous facilities include a shared outdoor swimming pool and allocated parking – a rarity in this bustling town – together with its own pontoon mooring, bistro restaurant and fully equipped laundry room.

Communal facilities include an elegant reception, ladies and gents’ washrooms and a further shower room off the entrance to the garden/swimming pool area – all making the perfect setting for an exclusive waterside retreat.

Entering the apartment, you will not only be impressed with the fabulous design of the stylish interior, including the fully equipped kitchen, but the harbour views visible from every window are truly spectacular.

Dining in Apartment 24 is another wonderful experience, as you can open the French doors to breathe in the sea air before heading downstairs to enjoy a stroll in the luscious subtropical gardens as the sun sets over the harbour.

When the sky darkens, get some much-needed rest and relaxation in the king-size bedroom furnished with a TV, perfect for lazy mornings, and serviced by a handy en-suite bathroom.

The spacious, fully fitted bedroom also affords glorious views over the water.

Apartment 24 lies in the heart of Salcombe in the South Devon AONB just paces away from shops to help ease your self-catered stay and pubs and bars including Dick and Willis, The Ferry Inn, and The Victoria Inn where you can enjoy delicious food and a variety of drinks on date night.

During the day head to Salcombe Maritime Museum or soak up the sun by spending the day at Salcombe’s North or South Sands, no trip to the coast would be complete without ice cream or experiencing local produce at the Crab Shed.

Take the ferry – which can be accessed directly from the garden - across the harbour to East Portlemouth or go further afield to Northsands, Southsands and even the market town of Kingsbridge.

The apartment lies a short drive from Dartmoor Zoo which houses a variety of big cats and a conservation centre, while here head on to Dartmoor National Park.

Traverse its 900 plus square kilometres of wild, open moorlands with history and a wealth of activities woven throughout; there are a variety of hiking, cycling, and climbing opportunities as well as chances to spot local wildlife.

Unlock the wonders of Devon at Apartment 24.
