Outstanding family accommodation in superb location
Well-designed house,-light, airy, but warm on cold nights. Very homely feel with comfortable sitting room and open-plan kitchen. Relatively secluded but within walking distance of beaches and coastal path. Parking for 3 cars. Nearby village shops for basics. Kingsbridge 20 mins drive. Would recommend.

Christmas break
We had a wonderful Christmas at Little Egret. The property is stunning, very clean, well equipped and in a great location. Lots of walks on the doorstep and a very short stroll to the village pub. We would definitely recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Roger Wood

Host profile image
Little Egret has been our holiday home for over 20 years. For 30 years we rented houses in Thurlestone and Salcombe for our family holidays. We have 3 children in their 40s, who between them have 8 children, 3 dogs and 3 cats, and we have 2 black Labradors. So the house is well used throughout the year and is arranged so that it is very comfortable and easy to run. An added attraction for us is that we have a number of friends who live locally. My wife and I stay every month throughout the year as we value the quieter periods outside school holidays to unwind, walk the Labradors along the cliff and beaches, play golf, sail, socialise and eat fresh seafood.

Why they chose this property

We bought it because we wanted sea views without being exposed to strong winds (the house is sheltered from the prevailing westerlies), a few minutes walk to the beaches, the best weather in the UK, and easy access from our home in Surrey.
Our family has holidayed in both Salcombe and Thurlestone for 40+ years because the South Hams has beautiful unspoilt beaches, cliffs, estuaries, rolling countryside, and Dartmoor is on its doorstep. The South Hams has its own micro climate which is often so much warmer and sunnier than the rest of England.
Initially the crowds of Salcombe had some appeal to us. But we have matured to Thurlestone (15 minutes away) so that we benefit from a lovely village by the sea without crowds.

What makes this property unique

Originally our very young and then teenage children fell in love with the variety of seaside things to do. They are now 40 year olds who love the house and the area so much that their children can't get enough of family holidays at Little Egret. There is always so much to do being 5 mins walk to beaches, surfing, golf, tennis, village pub and shop, and within a short drive of everywhere in the South Hams and Dartmoor.
Good restaurants and pubs abound. Historical places of interest and childrens places of entertainment are within short distances.
Compared with more restricted holiday lets, we offer a fully equipped house, with space and relaxation ideally for two large families or four couples, sea views from the terrace and most rooms, and an enclosed, safe garden for children and dogs.
