Lovely Weekend
The house and facilities were excellent, spacious house with lots of outdoor space, games, hot tub, swimming pool etc. Perfect house for a weekend away with friends. There were just a couple of issues which could be very easily rectified - you cannot open the downstairs en-suite bathroom from the inside once the door is closed, which resulted in my friend being locked in there for 10 minutes as we couldn’t hear her shouting from upstairs, had this have been a child this would have been awful. The door in the main room on the top floor does not close, so we had to wedge bags against it to keep it closed which was t ideal. We also discovered some dog poo on the grass whilst out playing on a lawn. I also think the cleanliness of the property could have been more thorough - lots of cobwebs and fly nests around the windows.

Great house with amazing pool and hot tub.
Lovely house, large enough for the 6 of us, although it can sleep more I wouldn’t have wanted to share with anymore than that. Steve was very helpful, no issues apart from maybe check crockery pans etc as there were a lot that needed cleaning before they could be used. Thanks for everything.

Family holiday
There were 10 adults and 9 children ranging from 4 years to 66years old - the pool and Jaccuzzi were the main attraction for the younger ones - there could be a few more instructions for the working of the cinema room and sound bar etc. Also no glasses in cinema room even though there was a bar in there - could also do with a slightly better BBQ - think it’s seen the best of its days. On the whole fantastic views and the local pub (The Church Inn ) was amazing food and drink wise.

Amazing stay!!!
The property was amazing and huge! Had everything we could possibly want. The swimming pool and hot tub was a great addition as well as the ping pong table/football field/basketball hoop! Hosts were friendly and answered any queries we had very quickly! Had such a great time that we're already looking to book again next year! A definite 10/10!

Spacious and very well equipped 3 story house
This house proved to be an idea l place to spend a few days with grandparents, children and grandchildren. The facilities were fantastic and allowed us to enjoy our holiday despite very poor weather. The warm enclosed swimming pool enabled the grand children to improved their swimming skills and the movie screen and projector allowed the adults to catch up on some movies. I hope we get chance to return before long.

Another wonderful stay at the Old Nursery
This is the third time we have stayed at this wonderful property and we will definitely return again. The place is perfectly set up for families with lots to keep children entertained including a fantastic outside space. Our three boys loved the swimming pool which is a real highlight of the property. I enjoyed swimming lengths too as the pool temperate is perfect and the setting stunning with views across to the hills. You won’t regret booking here. Whilst no one wanted to leave the house as there is plenty to do during a short stay, the children had a magical time at Shaldon Zoo and the adults enjoyed the coffee and delicious food at Ode. We also need the recipe for the rocky road that was waiting for us on arrival! Thanks for a wonderful stay, the Ogilvie family.

Summer extended family holiday
12 of us but could have been 16 plus. Loads of room, beautifully decorated, fitted out and equipped. Gorgeous indoor pool and hot tub got plenty of action. Plenty to play at outside - table tennis, footy, climbing frame. It’s just the problem of negotiating the narrow lanes.

Perfect house, not so perfect weather!
The weather meant we fully appreciated all the space, comfort and facilities in this attractive house. We enjoyed the light, airy rooms, the tranquil views and the peaceful location. We messed around in the warm pool, relaxed in the hot tub, battled the wind to play table tennis and shared long convivial meals at the vast kitchen table. We recommend eating at the local pub or, for a special occasion, at The Elephant in Torquay, visiting Buckfast Abbey and the wonderful Babbacombe Model Village. Thanks to Steve, our charming helpful host and to Charlotte for the scones, jam and clotted cream.

The perfect family holiday.
What a fabulous property for a big family gathering. The bedroom & bathroom arrangements were perfect for us. The 7 grandchildren had a blast & were hardly out of the swimming pool. The football pitch was a great venue for a sports afternoon. With so much to entertain the children there was plenty of r&r time for the adults! The weather couldn't have been better. Thank you Steve & Charlotte for a wonderful holiday.
