About the host
Hosted by Sue Morris
We fell in love with this property as soon as we were through the gate. Over the last few years we have totally refurbished the house and added the pool. It is truly the perfect bolt hole for me and my husband, 3 grown up children and extended family. We are based in Surrey but come down regularly for long weekends.
Why they chose this property
We have been holidaying in the South Hams for the last 15 years and in 2009 decided to buy a property as we loved it so much. Over the last 7 years we have had many happy holidays and celebrations with friends and family at our home.
What makes this property unique
The magic of this house is the total peace and tranquility that washes over you as soon as you arrive. My daughter says this is her most favourite place in the world.
