Victoria
Wolborough House cannot be beaten for location - brilliant position above the breakwater. We saw dolphins and seals from the window! Lovely old house with bags of character, loads of room for our three generations celebrating a 60th birthday. Games room, pool, sauna and snooker room a big hit with us all. Kitchen was very well equipped and lovely big dining room to accommodate 16 people. Steve was very helpful and on hand if we needed anything.
Steve
A perfect house and location for a family celebration. So much room, beautifully equipped. The indoor swimming pool and games room were ideal for the young children, the snooker table well used by wannabe Sullivans. House manager Steve was very helpful and cheerful.
Roger
What a wonderful place to spend yet another week at Christmas with friends and family. Atmosphere, location and whole house perfect. Plenty to do inside so no need to leave the house really. But the local shops and good restaurants etc are within easy walking distance. Lovely walks around area too,
Clare
Magical place that is a special for our family. Third time of visiting and kids now adults, so just great to spend time together, enjoyed the sauna, pool and games room etc. Thanks to Steve for making everything perfect. We will return !!!
Roger
The location is excellent, ideally placed for walks along the coastal paths, trips out with young children and stunning views over Brixham harbour. There is only one word to describe the house "awesome", everything from kitchen equipment, beds, furniture and games rooms was top quality. Steve was an excellent host and had so much history about the house. Will definitely go back.
Roger
Fantastic character, atmosphere and relaxing, homely feel as soon as you arrive. The location and views are superb. We had practically a whole week of sunshine luckily, but would have been happy indoors any weather.
Andrew
Absolutely sensational property, with everything that you could possibly need. A family or group of families could easily entertain themselves and their children without going off site once. We had competitions for table tennis, table football, snooker, chess and boules. The patio area is really special. A wind protected suntrap with views over the whole of Torbay. Day, night, and sunset are quite spectacular sitting or lying there relaxing.
Reginald
