Gem of a cottage in fantastic location
This is a delightful cottage - we loved it - cosy, beautifully designed and very comfortable. It's in an amazing location, right in the heart of Croyde, but just off the main street and down a small lane, with direct access (10min walk) to the beach. We loved being able to walk everywhere. The lounge is lovely to relax in and the kitchen has all you need. There's also a small, sunny outdoor courtyard with table and chairs. Bobby was a lovely host, super friendly accommodating and quick to respond. A gift of fudge and wine on arrival was much appreciated. We would love to come back one day.

Great stay in Croyde
We stayed for 4 nights in the cottage, and it made a lovely change to our usual caravan. Great location, right near the centre of the village, and just a short walk to the beach. The host left us a lovely welcome gift of Prosecco & cake, as well as having towels and blankets available. We would definitely stay again.

Gorgeous break
We had an amazing stay at Bobby’s house which is in a brilliant location 10 minutes from the beach and right next to great restaurants, ice cream shops and pubs. Myself and 4 teens were really comfortable in the house (beds were great) and had a very chilled few days. The sun came out too which always helps! I really hope we’ll return!
