*** House Details ***
Charming 19th century workers cottage, providing 4 bedrooms [all double beds] & 3 Bathrooms [2 ensuites & 1 shared], newly renovated [2018], with many stylish design features, and decorated in a modern-rustic feel to a high standard, with all mod cons. Many original features being retained adding to the charm. Off street private parking available for 2 vehicles. Ideally placed within an easy stroll to the centre of town. Interior is well laid out with nice design features providing a comfortable living experience. also having a Stone walled garden for those alfresco opportunities.

The property has wheelchair access [60cm width] being limited to the ground floor living and garden bedroom with ensuite shower room. All thresholds have been minimised to allow ease of access. [however we cannot describe it as fully disabled access and use]. please check with us for any clarifications.

the property is over 130 years old and was built for workers in the late 19th century for 20 pounds. We have lovingly renovated and extended the property to provide all the requirements for modern day living and luxury comforts, whilst retaining many original elements to keep the cottage feel - you will find original stone feature walls, restored original floor boards, and the original stairs. The stairs are narrow and relatively steep by modern standards but are easily accessible with due care.
In addition we have added underfloor heating to the ground floor living and garden rooms, to the tiled floors.

The accommodation is very compact but deceptively spacious, having designed the areas to maximise the ease of use and living comfort. We hope you will enjoy.

Excellent Christmas Stay

Lovely, clean cottage in a very picturesque area. We stayed over Christmas and had a lovely time. The cottage was clean throughout and very comfortable to stay in. There was ample parking available. Tim and Sarah were extremely helpful with anything that was needed and ensured our stay was a pleasant one. Would highly recommend.

Excellent, comfortable holiday

We enjoyed staying at 5 Shadycombe cottage. Owner sent lots of useful information by email shortly before stay. The cottage was compact, clean and well equipped. The bathrooms were a little compact. The cottage location and proximity to Salcombe allowed us to walk into town. We found fabulous art store, along with a great bakery for breakfast goods and pasties, in addition fudge, chocolate and ice cream stores all very yummy. Be advised Salcombe itself is not car or wheelchair friendly. We were delighted with The Crabshell in Kingsbridge.

Amazing property in great location

We had a fab time here over New Year with friends. The property is beautifully restored and very well equipped. It is just a short walk to central Salcombe and the very big bonus is parking for 2 cars as parking in Salcombe is really hard to find at this time of year.

Stylish, comfortable, cosy cottage with parking!

We booked this cottage because my daughter was getting married at the nearby Salcombe Harbour Hotel. We arrived on a rather soggy, chilly November day and the cottage was so welcoming! It was so clean, warm and cosy we immediately felt at home. The parking for 2 cars was an added bonus in a town where parking can be tricky. The downstairs layout is very social, the kitchen had everything we needed and thanks to the instructions before we arrived we found everything easily! All the beds were comfortable with good quality bedding. All the bathrooms were warm and stylish. We had 4 generations staying at the same time and even my 85 year old Father managed the steep, tricky stairs. The cottage is 2 mins away from an excellent Co-op and there is an easy 10-15 walk into the centre of Salcombe. We had en excellent Sunday Roast at The Victoria Inn, the rest of the time we ate in the cottage. We would not hesitate to stay again, many thanks to Sarah the housekeeper for her excellent communication.

Lovely stay

Lovely property with everything you need for a comfortable stay. It is beautifully decorated and we all went home wanted to completely redecorate our houses! Great location and super comfortable. Hosts were very responsive and the communication was great. We loved our stay and had a great time. Would be brilliant if they could look at getting WiFi coverage in the garden annexe room.

Wonderful cottage

We stayed for a family wedding in Salcombe, the cottage was perfect for our 3 generation family. The cottage was very comfortable and well equipped and in a peaceful location but still within a few minutes walk of the high street with its lovely shops, pubs and restaurants. Communication with the owner and housekeeper was excellent, parking was a great bonus.

Wonderful family holiday in a fabulous cottage

An excellent property in a great location. The garden annex was perfect for my elderly mother who has mobility issues and the main building had everything for a comfortable stay for 2 couples. We did not need to use the attic room. The parking arrangement is fine for two midsize vehicles. Communication with Tim, the owner, prior to arrival was very good and he sent tons of useful information via numerous emails. The house keeper Sarah was always on hand to deal with questions. The only issue was we had no internet for the whole week but this was due to an external problem which BT were still trying to fix. Thankfully Sarah stepped in to help out my sister who had a work related task, inviting my sister to her house to enable her to complete an important application form. I highly recommend this property and wouldn’t hesitate to use it again if we are ever again in the Salcombe area.

Great

A lovely property designed beautifully in a great location in salcombe town. Benefitted from parking although it can take some manovering. Only things i felt could be improved on was to have atleast a toilet roll upon arrival (we had to rush straight out). And that i was quite overwhelmed by the amount of emails and house rules upon booking, we really only required address and key code.

About the host

Hosted by Tim Goodall

Host profile image
We (Tim and Emma) are putting our family home up for holiday lets. We live and work in Dubai, but have had our second home in Salcombe since 2007. Salcombe is where my wife's family live and so is somewhere we will continue to visit, in addition to the fact it is in a beautiful part of the world. The house was gutted and stripped back allowing us to create a very personal special, albeit compact, family home for our holidays in the UK. We are not letting the home as a business but more of a sustainable need given it is a second home used once a year. We have put a lot of love, care and thought into the design of the interior and outdoor spaces, and we hope you will enjoy our home as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Salcombe is a quintessential English seaside town. Very picturesque town, active sailing and fishing harbour with plenty of outdoor scenic and activity opportunities.

Our Cottage has been beautifully renovated and we are sure you will enjoy staying there.

What makes this property unique

Our Property has the benefits of:
- easy access, on the flat, a few minutes walking distance to town
- off street parking [for 2 vehicles]
- outdoor living area
- all mod cons
