About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A homely coastal snug, tucked in a quiet area, a short walk to the shore.

"This homely, south facing, ground floor holiday apartment within a complex of 62 near the pier, is conveniently located for quick level walking access to the coast, harbour and town. It comprises a spacious bedroom with double bed and single bunks, a lounge with dining furniture, a double sofabed, a kitchenette with oven, hob, microwave, fridge with ice box, toaster, shopping trolley, picnic backpack, iron and ironing board. Whilst furnished with a home-from-home feel, it has gentle reminders of being at the seaside so relax and enjoy.

"Heating is by way of portable electric units, an immersion for hot water and a powerful electric shower operates over the bath. All of this, together with bedding, linen, bath/hand/tea towels, lighting, and basic essentials are included in the cost of your stay. So too is free access to the heated pool. Checking in and out is unobtrusive in that you have your own access and departure responsibility.

"The private patio/lawned garden, with shrubs and outdoor furniture, as well as buckets and spades, is idyllic for your own al-fresco catering or a haven for soaking up the sun. Also suitable for storing bicycles. Car parking for one vehicle, just meters away, is secure.

"A splendid heated outdoor pool, set in tropical landscaped gardens and shared by all guests, is so welcoming on either hot or cooler days and is open throughout the summer, May to September.

"The apartment has two entrances, and is tastefully furnished to accommodate families of 5, maximum 3 adults, but we cannot accept party bookings for hen or stag entertainment. Wheelchair users, please note that there are two steps into the apartment and a narrow entrance into the bathroom might not allow for wheelchair access. The front entrance via the main gate is on the flat to the interior door

"Because of the splendid coastal location of this lovely holiday home, you are in close proximity to the town shopping centre, supermarkets, restaurants, parks, bus depot, railway and steam train station, rugby/cricket ground, theatre, cinema, and launderette. Wifi is not available.

"Cleaning is thorough and carried out with professionalism.

"Added to all of that, you've got free use of a beautiful warm pool and immediate flat access to the clean sandy beach/coast. Have fun!"

A warm welcome awaits you - we're sure you'll enjoy your stay.

Excellent location

Absolutely amazing location to explore Paignton and the pool is the star of the show. The apartment was comfortable and had lots of extras such as games, etc, but it could do with a good wipe down and the drawers being cleaned out (lots of crumbs in the cutlery drawer, etc). The host was excellent at communicating with us for check-in instructions and replied quickly to any messages

Great holiday home

Lovely clean accomodation, all amenities needed for a fantastic holiday right by the sea front. Easy checkin/out, plus clean swimming pool. Only negative is hearing a lot of noise from the apartment upstairs, kids running about causing the light fitting in lounge to rattle!

Stayed in this property for a week over all it was good, a few minor things need updating ie: toaster needs replacing, hair dryer needs replacing, toilet brush was very dirty and brown, frying pan needs to be nonstick, handle missing on bedroom cabinet, sink in kitchen area dirty and stained last but not least TOO MANY SEAGULLS TOO MANY FEATHERS

Nice location noisy upstairs !!!

The place looked clean and tidy but I did have to clean the fridge before using it. The real problem are people with boots on upstairs I assume it’s a wood floor rather than carpet and no we wouldn’t return

Lovely location but with noisy neighbours

Lovely location within a couple of minutes walk of the seafront and easy driving distance to attractions in Paignton and along the south Devon coast. Apartment was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Only downside is that noise really carries from the flat upstairs and could constantly hear thudding doorsteps, voices and the television at all hours. Wouldn’t recommend if you want to enjoy quiet evenings in or are a light sleeper.
