We had the most wonderful stay at the cottage. We enjoyed the canoes and we brought the paddleboard which was lots of fun. The views are amazing and sitting on the bench by the Summer House, taking in the views was lovely. The beds are comfy, and the kitchen was the best equipped we've ever seen! Thank you for a lovely stay.

Thank you so much for such a lovely stay, once again! We have been so lucky with the weather and loved visiting Dartmouth Castle, Start Point Lighthouse, Hallsands Beach, South Milton Beach, Salcombe to do some crabbing, and Overbecks House. We will definitely be back!

Had a wonderful week in your lovely home. One of the best properties we have stayed in for over thirty years! Very comfortable, beautiful view. We have been so lucky with the weather for October and have been able to sit outside everyday. Enjoyed trips to Paignton Zoo, Dartmouth, Salcombe, Babbacombe, Totnes and Buckfast Abbey. Enjoyed ice cream aRead moret Torcross. Good food at The Globe across the road, the Village Bakery and The Queen's Arms in Slapton. This was our second attempt to visit Riverside, the first was cancelled at the start of the Pandemic - we're very glad we got here eventually! Hide
