The Annex was absolutely spot on Really clean and well equipped Everything we needed was there Ideal location for us as we like to cycle everywhere and when the weather wasn’t suitable we walked the few yards to the station and took train We have no hesitation in recommending the Annex

"Really nice place to stay."
Exceptionally clean and comfortable. With a well thought out kitchen and bathroom. In fact just about everything you need to enjoy your holiday. Also, great transport links to the whole of the South Devon and Cornwall coast, and further afield. The only downside is that I have tried to book it again, and found that after the 17th August 2024 it is unavailable for booking? I have looked as far ahead as August 2026, still unavailable? Best regards, Robert and Elizabeth.
Ratings are important to hosts. Helps us stay motivated to provide a great experience. Best wishes. Property Owner

"The Annexe was immaculate, beautifully presented with everything we needed for our stay."
The welcome treats were perfect! Thank you. Our host was welcoming and if needed was at the end of the phone. The Annexe was ideally placed for our visits to Exeter and the south coast using the train. Will definitely be revisiting.
Thank you C Family. Very much appreciated. We look forward to welcoming you back. :) Property Owner

"Lovely place to stay."
Ideal location for visiting Exeter or exploring the coast. A welcome pack was much appreciated. Parking easy either on nearby road or carpark after 6. Only downside was lack of TV outside of netflix or Amazon.

"Absolutely beautiful annex, so well maintained."
I could not fault one thing about this holiday annex. You are very central to lots of lovely places to see in Devon. Even if you decide to cycle or get a bus. I would highly recommend this lovely cosy home from home ❤ and the host left a lovely warming welcome gift pack. Couldn't have asked for more. Thank you Rae X

"Excellent well appointed and clean!"
Excellent kitchen with clothes washer and dryer. Lovely walk in shower. The kitchen skylight opens by remote control and creates a cooling draft. There's lots of storage so no suitcases are rattling around. There's a shop and four pubs, three of them selling food, within walking distance. A home from home with a very discreet, tactile host who's gone the extra mile. Quality all round!
Thank you David and partner. Appreciated when guests have a great stay! :) Property Owner
