"The property was exceptional, with a great view."
But the area was not appropriate for people with limited mobility. It was very hilly, couldn't reach the beach because of the steepness, even with the wheelchair. I should have been notified of this accurately, when I rang an enquired about it.
Hello Guest, I’m very sorry to hear about your mobility difficult with the apartment block. I will ask Sykes Cottages to add a note explaining the access to the beach is via a slope which may cause difficulty for some guests. Best Regards Property Owner

"Lovely, comfortable apartment, well equipped and in a perfect location with wonderful views too"

"Lovely apartment In great location."
Showers both flooded the floor. Shower of second bedroom was efficiently fixed by maintenance team. Shower off main bedroom has no seal on screen so we had to put a towel on floor to avoid damage. This needs sorting. Could do with more glasses. Otherwise this is a lovely apartment and we had a great holiday.

Everything about this apartment was fantastic, very comfortable beds, everything clean and welcoming had booked to go downstairs to the restaurant which was very good. If you want to do this best if you book saw people turned away as it was full. Would highly recommend this apartment. No rain all week.,

Try a plethora of water sports including windsurfing, bodyboarding and kayaking, or for the less adventurous visit Bigbury's most famous landmark crossing the causeway at low tide to Burgh Island: if the tide is in, hitch a ride on the 'sea tractor'.
Explore the South Devon coastline at your leisure, not forgetting to spend some time in the pretty towns and villages of Dartmouth, Salcombe and Kingsbridge.

Burgh Island View Apartments
Just 20 yards from Bigbury-on-Sea's big and splendid sandy beach, looking to Burgh Island Causeway, are 29 stunning, high quality apartments, of which we let a number. Within the same building are excellent leisure facilities and a restaurant. The views over the sea to the south and west, and at low tide of a vast expanse of smooth washed yellow sand reaching to Burgh Island, are outstanding. The island's jolly pub, The Pilchard, is fun to visit (long-legged sea tractor at high tide). All the apartments, which are privately owned and individually furnished, have those sensational views, and are wonderfully light, with large, airy open-plan living/dining/kitchens and glazed doors to balconies or terraces. The smallish bedrooms, at the back (without views), have good quality en suite bath or shower-rooms. The apartment building is three-storey. Most apartments have easy access (short walk from parking and between 5 and 9 steps down to the lift). The ground floor (still high above the beach) apartments have big terraces, the first and top floor apartments have very good-sized balconies. The leisure facilities, which are free for guests to use and open from 10am every day (except Christmas Day), include a fine indoor swimming pool (40' x 20' x 4'6"), spa pool, well-equipped gym (treadmill, steps, cycles, Concept II Rower and other instruments of torture) and sauna (no children under 14 in gym or sauna). There are changing rooms, a shower and disabled loo. The Club restaurant/smart bar, is open 10am to 9pm during the High Season, reservations recommended (for all other times of the year, please contact the Leisure Centre for opening times), serves excellent food throughout the day, with a popular dinner menu which varies daily and themed evenings. You can also order meals to take to your apartment. The comfy lounging area has sofas and WiFi, and the sunny outdoor terrace faces the sea.
Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
About the location
BIGBURY-ON-SEA
Modbury 6 miles; Plymouth 12 miles.
Bigbury-on-Sea is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is ideal for family holidays. Dusted with sand and lapped by shallow waters, the beach offers safe fun for groups particularly if you’ve got children in tow. In addition, Bigbury-on-Sea beach is dotted with rock pools, so there’s plenty of entertainment for budding marine biologists. There’s also a wide and varied selection of watersports available to visitors who prefer their holidays to feature a little adrenaline rush. Windsurfing and kite-surfing are popular here, with hire facilities located right on the beach. To give you some peace of mind, there are lifeguards present at Bigbury-on-Sea beach during May to September and the beach also has a first-aid room. You can even take the dog onto the beach, although they are restricted to certain areas during the summer. Bigbury’s most famous landmark is Burgh Island, which overlooks the beach itself. The island is accessible at low tide, when the waters reveal a causeway that links it to the beach. However, when the tide is in you can still reach the island by hitching a ride on the popular and unique ‘sea tractor’. Burgh Island boasts an award-winning hotel, elegant and rather genteel, it’s an ideal romantic retreat for couples. Explore the South Devon coast with its fabulous sandy beaches and its breathtakingly beautiful coastal path or simply take time to visit some of the charming estuary towns and villages dotted throughout the area, such as Salcombe, Kingsbridge and Dartmouth. The city of Plymouth and the wild open spaces of Dartmoor are also both close at hand.
