This was a new venue for our annual pilgrimage to the scene of our childhood holidays. My siblings and cousin were looking for a property that had plenty of space, was well equipped and not too far from the Dart. Rocket house delivered in every area and we had a lovely relaxed stay. The communications were timely, accurate and most informative and we felt well looked after throughout out the booking and our stay. We are already planning next years trip!

A superb house! Everything was of good quality and tastefully decorated and furnished. The large house gave us space to enjoy together and enough space for some quiet alone-time, too. We made ample use of the amazing kitchen.
