Guests say

Valley View is a well-regarded holiday rental in Devon, praised for its comfort, cleanliness, and the warm welcome provided by the hosts. Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches, including welcome packs and essential items. The property serves as a great base for exploring the area, though one review suggests room for improvement in cleanliness and maintenance.

Most guests found Valley View to be clean and well-presented. However, one review mentioned issues with dog hair and a need for a thorough dusting, which suggests some inconsistency in the cleanliness standards.

The location is frequently described as favourable, offering easy access to local attractions and set in a quiet, pleasant village. One review mentioned the challenge of a steep hill, but this does not detract significantly from the overall positive feedback.

Guests consistently report that the property is comfortable, with special mentions of a comfortable bed and a homely atmosphere. The comfort of the property is a highlight in several reviews.

Facilities are generally well-received, with mentions of a well-equipped property and a huge TV. However, one review cites wear and tear in the kitchen, a whistling gas cooker, and a problematic bathroom door, indicating some areas need attention.

The hosts' thoughtfulness is highly praised, with several mentions of welcome packs and essentials provided. While these gifts are appreciated, it's important to note that such extras, while delightful, are not guaranteed for every stay.

About this property

Valley View is a charming first-floor apartment linked to the owner's home in the Devon village of Bishopsteignton. The apartment, ideal for a couple or small family, has a private courtyard garden space, off-road parking, and is near to local facilities for your self-catering stay. Ascend the concrete steps to the front door after passing through the former Victorian glass room. The modest kitchen has a gas oven and hob, a compact fridge/freezer, and a breakfast bar, while the living/dining area has a larger dining space for the whole family and a TV to unwind in front of after a day out. When it's time to sleep, choose between two bedrooms, a double and a single, being excellent guests. Wake up with a nice shower before pouring yourself a hot drink to sip in the courtyard garden to kick off your day. Bishopsteignton is a charming village with a shop and pub where you can fill up on necessities, and there are other eateries and attractions in surrounding towns and villages. Teignmouth is a picturesque coastal town famed for its magnificent sandy beaches, arts district, and stately pier. The town is also home to the Shaldon Wildlife Trust, which is an excellent site to visit for wildlife lovers, as well as a few restaurants and pubs. Exeter is an easily accessible medieval city best known for its most renowned feature, Exeter Cathedral, a Gothic masterpiece began in the 12th century. Riverside Valley Park, a scenic green space ideal for a leisurely stroll, and Northernhay Gardens, a tranquil sanctuary in the centre of the city, are also located in the city. You can also enjoy a multitude of walking and cycling options in the neighbouring Dartmoor National Park. Valley View is an ideal base for exploring Devon.

    The property is in a great location and very handy for Teignmouth and Torquay. The hosts were very friendly and helpful and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Happy to recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area.

  • Deborah

    I liked the art work around the property lots of character. Lovely light and airy bedroom with a beautiful view out of the windows. The village pubs are friendly and passers by all ways said hello. We would recommend to our friends and family.

    This has now been changed to some new wide and easy to manage steps. The property was lovely and provided all the essentials needed. The family were very friendly and very helpful. We would definitely recommend a stay at Valley View.
