Owner profile
About the owner
We have owned a bungalow at Penstowe for some 40 years and believe we have a good knowledge of what our guests need on holiday. We stay in the bungalow regularly as we enjoy the area, which has changed very little over the years. While there, we check that everything in the bungalow is working and replace items as necessary. We also invite holidaymakers to comment when they return the key. Although we do not live locally, we do have a helpful local representative who prepares the bungalow, and can be called on if there's a problem
Year purchased: 1970's
Why the owner chose a home in this location
Our bungalow, which gets the afternoon sun, provides comfortable accommodation and is within easy reach of the Manor House (2-3 minutes walk, but out of sound!) and the Stable Inn, the takeaway and launderette in the Stable Block. We think 1 Hillside provides comfortable accommodation and is located within easy reach of a huge range of social, sporting and family amenities. The Penstowe site offers plenty to do in daytime and evenings within easy, safe walking distance. However, many of our guests simply use 1 Hillside as a place to relax and as a base for exploring Devon and Cornwall. In the bungalow we have DVDs, books, games and jigsaws.
Unique benefits of the property
Penstowe Park is large enough to offer many facilities not offered by smaller sites and where children in particular can use the pool (lifeguards are on hand for specified times of the day)
