“Stunning little cottage fantastic location a tad dated but had a lovely time”

- Gary, July 2024
Stuart June 2024

“Nice clean property with outside drying facilities that were really useful for anyone who is planning on spending some time on the water whilst there.”

The property is in a great location right in the heart of the town at water level, so flat for those who struggle with hills, of which there are plenty around Salcombe.

“Brilliant location, great for a few days though not the most comfortable sitting room if we had been staying longer in bad weather.”

Being at the far end of the row was great from a noise and privacy point of view but does mean the cottage is quite dark - can't be helped, just something to be aware of. Also would have been good to have some pegs for the washing line, we couldn't find any! Loved the photos on the walls. Parking in the longstay with the permit was easy (over a weekend in early July).

“The property was very nice and clean.”

I was very happy to see the number of items that were available to use within the Kitchen, as this made our stay much easier. I was also happy to see the number of cleaning products available in the property that are often not available in other properties. Would be very happy to stay here again.

“We both loved our stay at 33 Island Street, and particularly the character and cosy furnishings of the cottage.”

Also a well designed kitchen, well equipped (though no microwave), and with excellent wifi & TV reception, and easy central heating. Upstairs is tasteful and carefully furnished in character - my sole complaint was the hardness of the mattress in the main bedroom, which affected my sleeping. The twin bedroom was fine. The bathroom is compact but effective, with all you need. (But the hot tap on the bath seemed was fixed to off for the hand held shower.). I managed the steep indoor stairs (as an over-70) as it has an effective handrail. There is no garden - not expected in such as authentic cottage. Location: very handy for the waterfront walks, eateries, the Salcombe Dairy and town services. Also near the Co-op supermarket, which is great for food shopping, and the main bus stop for rides to Kingsbridge and beyond. Plus good, friendly service from Coast & Country Cottages.

“Wonderful quaint accommodation.”

Perfectly situated for harbour and town. Nothing to do with the booking but sadly, it seemed that Salcombe hospitality had disappeared. Lots of establishments were closed or on limited opening times. This can't be foreseen.....but what can be done is that the staff that are working could have been a bit more polite......but again, nothing to do with the booking. I would love to return to Salcombe but need a lot of reassurance that the restaurants and bars could cope with the demand and, according to our friends it wasn't that busy compared to previous years.

“The ideal holiday cottage for a couple or small family.”

Really enjoyed our week.

“My main problem was that on arrival we had no instructions where to pick keys up and where to park the car.”

And after a six hour drive we eventually got keys and instructions where to park to then wait another 30 minutes until a space came available. Other than that it was a fantastic holiday and the accommodation was what it said.

The property

Located in the heart of the popular town of Salcombe is this lovely fisherman's cottage, 33 Island Street.

An end-terrace reached via a quaint side street, this two-bedroom dwelling offers a homely spot from which to enjoy an action-packed stay in Salcombe.

Soak up the pretty scenery before entering into the cottage and welcomed into the snug kitchen/diner, with all the essentials for a self-catered stay in here including an electric oven and a gas hob, you can prepare picnics, enjoy breakfasts in the morning at the dining table, or simply plate up your fish and chips from the local takeaway!

Spend an evening catching up with your travelling companions in the sitting room, where a gas coal-effect fire can add some warming ambiance in winter, with a sofa and chairs to relax on and a TV for those quiet evenings in.

Head up the steep stairs to the bedrooms when you're in need of rest and find two equally delightful bedrooms, with the first home to two 2'6" single beds, making it ideal for children, and the second being a king-size bedroom, each providing tranquil sleeping spots.

Feel refreshed after a shower in the bathroom upon waking, or take a longer soak within the roomy corner bathtub, perfect to fill an hour in between outings.

At the rear of the property is a bench out on the charming little street where you can sit out with a morning coffee before heading out for the day, making the short and level walk down to the quayside to watch the boats coming and going.

Head out on your own maritime adventure and hire a boat to travel along the waters of Salcombe Harbour, taking in the wonderful scenery of the many beaches and coves scattered along the way.

Back on dry land you can find out more about Salcombe's long-standing relationship with the sea at Salcombe Maritime Museum, with a treasure trove of delights to see, while more history can be found by walking southward to the ruins of Fort Charles, and further still to the National Trust's Overbeck's.

Beach days are a must in warm weather so visit either North Sands or South Sands, each served by lovely beach cafés with rock pools to explore and beautiful sandy shores.

Keen walkers can head out to Snapes Point, a National Trust area

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
