Lovely Little Gara
The apartment is spacious and clean and had everything we needed during our stay. It overlooks a very pretty and well maintained garden and is situated in a very quaint village. The apartment is within walking distance of local amenities (shops, bus stops and restaurants) and is well situated to visit Torquay, Paignton and Brixham by car. We received a nice welcome from the owners alongside some tasty scones and jam. The apartment is in a very peaceful location and we enjoyed our visit. Thank you.

A beautiful property in a stunning location, spotlessly clean, and everything is provided for you, just need your toiletries (there are some supplies too) and food. Gill and Michael went above and beyond our expectations, highly recommended to family and friends, looking forward to our next visit.

Central location for exploring The English Riviera
Extremely well equipped and maintained property. Very friendly and welcoming hosts. From welcoming cream tea to a bottle of bubbly on Christmas Day. Delightful place with narrow hilly roads but easy access onto the main link roads

Nothing to fault with this place.
There is really nothing to fault with this place. When I arrived I was greeted by name, the place was spotless and warm and ready for me to move in for my stay. The owners were simply wonderful and just let me get on with it, but were handy on site if I needed them. I would definitely reccomend this place to anyone who needs a place to stay to explore what the wonderful county of Devon has to offer.

Perfect Stay
We've just got home after a great stay. We had a very busy week and the apartment was perfectly placed for us to get to all the places we needed to get to easily. A welcome pack including a cream tea was such a lovely extra touch. The friendly owners and their beautiful cat made for a great stay. Thank you

Made to feel welcome from the second we arrived at this apartment. Everything you could need. Spotlessly clean and tidy. The Devon cream tea and flowers were really appreciated. We would have no hesitation in recommending a stay here. Thank you very much to the owners.

Great apartment, very nice people. Everything you need plus a few extra unexpected treats such as cream tea and chocolates for Easter. I would say one thing and that is, the pictures do not do this apartment justice, it's much better than the pictures show. We will return.

Return visit
We're so glad we discovered Garden View Apartment. We needed somewhere convenient when visiting an elderly relative in South Devon, and this is just the place: we had no hesitation in coming back here. So spacious and comfortable, with everything we needed to look after ourselves for a few days. The hosts' attention to detail is exemplary, so we felt we were having a holiday, not just on a visit of duty. Who needs hotels!
