A good sized and spacious house that easily handled the eight of us for the week. Plenty of cutlery, crockery and kitchen utensils for cooking. The games room was a boon especially with the inclement weather we've just had. The bedrooms were large and comfortable.

Our family of 6 adults, 2 teenagers, 2 small children and 1 cockerpoo really enjoyed staying at Beacon House. There were several games of cricket (soft ball and facing away from the greenhouse!) and much laughter. The house is well situated for the Tarka Trail and other walks, as well as the surrounding beaches. However to access the garden you do Read morehave to go down through the cellar and watch your head, so we struggled a bit with the pushchair and anyone with mobility issues might have a problem.

This is a great house for a family gathering. The bedrooms are comfortable and good sizes. Having a bathroom per bedroom was a real plus too. The hot tub was ready to use on arrival and a great added bonus - the outdoor lights mean it can be used in the evenings too. Big outdoor space and only a 10 minute walk to a supermarket and not far from townRead more so great location. Advise bringing spare toilet rolls as there is only 1 per bathroom! A lovely place to stay! Hide
