    Heather and John are amazing hosts. A couple of nice gardens to play with the kids or have a drink in the late afternoon. There's a stairs gate to keep children safe and some toys too.

Heather and John.
This house has a lovely healthy feel to it , birds and animals thrive here especially slow worms. Deer are regular visitors to our garden.We have four cats ,daisy ,chrystal ,cream , coco. The sea air is invigorating and people leave feeling refreshed and batteries recharged.Children relax immediately in this enchanted house and illuminated garden and all enjoy the beaches and amenities.
John and I have run this B+B for several years in Paignton . We had another By+B before in Totnes we ran for 15 years.We have always supported organic chemical free foods.We try to be sustainable but not purist or fanatical. Children are welcome with lots of toys in the lounge and bathroom.They relax quickly and love the gardens and illuminations.
Scadson's wood just behind us.Close to all bus/train/steam trains , boat trips and 5 minutes walking distance to sea and beaches. Torre Abbey. Geo play area. Red Arrows. South Devon Coastal path.Gorgeous sea views and gardens.Thriving community.New investment area. Totnes and Dartmoor in easy driving distance.NB Come in off tarraway road entrance avoid hollicombe lane.
