Gitcombe is a special place. We try to hold a family holiday every year in a location which has something for every one. Gitcombe provides that. Lovely accommodation with great facilities in the heart of the Devon countryside.
Our family of 3 generations had an amazing holiday staying in the garden house. We enjoyed every minute. The pools were great for the grandchildren,whilst the adults enjoyed the hot tub and terrace with wonderful views over the countryside. The accommodation was well equipped for all our needs. Well situated for days out exploring the coastal resorts. Kept well informed with emails before and during our stay by Emma the estate manager. Thank you for a most enjoyable stay.
We stayed at Gitcombe House for a week. It had every amenity you could want for in the house, and was a wonderful place to stay - felt like being in Downton Abbey! The wider estate facilities are also excellent - the swimming pools, playground and tennis courts. The owner, Peter, was available whenever we had questions or issues. Location is 15 min drive from a beautiful beach, and 20 min from either Totnes or Dartmouth. Would happily come back.
This was our second time going to Gitcombe, the kids (3 and 6) love the facilities, and we love the location too. The owners and team are amazing, and saved us from a few scrapes, from an early food shop delivery being put in our fridge when we were stuck in traffic, to matches and tea bags dropped around when we had forgotten them. The property was small but perfectly formed, apart from one rusty toilet seat the standards everywhere were top notch. Thank you to everyone at Gitcombe for a lovely holiday, keep up the good work!
Superb family holiday - beautiful setting, high quality accommodation and so many resources on site for all ages to enjoy. Not cheap but well worth it.
Such a lovely place! Wonderful location in what feels like an undiscovered valley, with glorious views. Very comfortable high spec cottage. Lots of facilities for families. Absolutely charming and welcoming hosts. We love it and we and our family have been many times.
Our first time staying at Gitcombe and we'll definitely be back. Our cottage Meavy was lovely, clean and perfect for the three of us, with a visiting Grandparent for a couple of nights too. The facilities on site are superb and a real draw card - the pools were fab, and we loved being able to keep our busy toddler entertained. Emma was a brilliant estate manager and whilst we didn't need to ask her for anything, we had lots of help and information communicated for our stay. We're looking forward to coming back.
Simply great 12th consecutive year now for us and we really wouldn’t stay anywhere else Perfect place in a perfect place and counting the days to our next stay!
