Lovely accommodation

The Boathouse lived up to our expectations. Compact, but with everything you need including a large double bed, lots of storage space and appliances and equipment of excellent quality. It felt private with our own little terrace. A great week’s stay! Thank you

A very enjoyable stay

A very nice place to be. Clean, well-decorated and well-equipped. Space at a premium but used very well. Parking a little awkward but a great location for exploring South Devon. Thank you, Fleur and Rob.

The boathouse is a delightful property in a beautiful location

I grew up in the Kingsbridge area so we really enjoyed visiting old haunts and seeing old school friends. My only comment would be that the boathouse is at the top of a steep flight of steps which my husband who has difficulty walking found difficult. I do not recall this being mentioned though I may be wrong. Anyway we managed and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We are Fleur and Rob. When we converted The Boathouse our aim was to create the look and feel of a boutique hotel, but with the peace and seclusion of a holiday cottage. Fleur is in charge of bookings and Rob takes care of the maintenance.

Why they chose this property

The great thing about Kingsbridge is that not only is it a thriving market town year round, but it's also located on the beautiful Kingsbridge estuary. No matter what time of year the rolling countryside and estuary make Kingsbridge a lovely place to be. Plus the central location of Kingsbridge makes it a great base to explore the wonderful coastline, countryside and other market towns of the South Hams.

What makes this property unique

We like to think that we’ve thought of everything you might need to enjoy your stay. The Boathouse is equipped to feel like a real home. When you arrive all you need to do is unpack your bags and relax. The new king size bed has a quality Hypnos pocket sprung mattress to give a good night’s rest. We offer free superfast Wi-Fi so you can research your next trip out or check your emails. Every year we completely refresh the Boathouse so it is pristine and ready to welcome you.
