We had a wonderful stay in Merchant House. It is a spacious and well equipped house, well located in the centre of Shaldon. The sitting room is large and light, a nice place to sit. The kitchen is well equipped with all the utensils and pans you need. The bedrooms are spacious and it has three bathrooms, which is great for a large family. We will be back again next year.

We had a great week staying in this comfortable and well equipped property. It is a great location for a young family, very near to the beach, river, shops and even the pub!! We have booked again for next year- can’t wait!
We've loved staying in this cottage. The location is perfect. The little courtyard garden is just right for an early morning cuppa or an evening watching the stars, as well as being great for storing beach gear. Every space has been utilised. We had a small problem with the washing machine and Anthony was so helpful as always. It was sorted very quickly. We cannot wait for next August as we have already booked Peartree cottage! Once again, Cottages south west have done us proud.
