We are nestled in the beautiful village of Stoke Gabriel and have the best of both worlds. Our friendly village is situated on the River Dart and has 2 village pubs, Emma's Restaurant (you may need to book weeks in advance) and gourmet cafe, The River Shack, on The Dart. We also have Sharpham Vineyard at Sandridge Barton, just a walk away where you can spend the afternoon sampling! We are a 10 minute drive from Torbay’s Goodrington and Broadsands beaches and the many attractions of Torbay, such as Splashdown Water Park, Paignton Zoo, the South Devon Coast Path, Agatha Christie's National Trust home at Greenway and the coastal Steam Railway. Along with the beautiful array of cafes and bars on the waterfront, we have so much to do right on our doorstep! Our comfortable living room boasts a 55" Sky Glass TV complete with Netflix and huge Lounge Co sofa and comfortable Cotswold Co chair. This opens onto the garden so you can literally open the house up in the summer and let the family enjoy! The dining room, off the kitchen, has a six seater table, is fully heated and has board games for the family for an evening of good times after dinner. We have a well-equipped kitchen, with everything you’d expect complete with a dishwasher, Tassimo coffee-machine with pods, perfect for those Sunday mornings..there’s an armchair in the corner, so just put your feet up with your mug and grab that book you’ve been meaning to read. Out and About Idyllic Stoke Gabriel has two proper old villagey pubs, the Church House Inn and The Castle which does a gorgeous Sunday Roast. We have a village shop for your Sunday paper or hot sausage roll or take a stroll down to the beautiful River Dart where you can hire out canoes or the kids can go crabbing and visit to the River Shack café perched on the riverside. The River Shack serves gourmet burgers, home made cakes and children's food. Visit the churchyard with one of the oldest Yew Trees in Britain, said to date back 1000 years. There are two lovely parks for the children, Sandridge Barton, the home of Sharpham Vinyard, is just a walk away. Here you can take a walk around the vineyard or sit and sample the wines in a beautiful barn courtyard setting. For adventure seekers and lovers of the outdoors, Torbay is a ten-minute drive away, offering many (17!) beaches and coves where the natural beauty can be explored with open countryside walks across Elberry Cove and the South Devon Coast Path and with the many water sports for hire and excursions with paddleboarding, kayaking, coasteering, sea fishing, jet skiing. We have so many attractions in Torbay which include the Steam Railway along the beach fronts to Kingswear, Paignton Zoo, Babbacombe Model Village, the Vue Cinema, Paignton Pier, Splashdown Water Park (the largest water park in the UK), Brixham Fish Market and Restaurants, Torquay and Brixham Marina’s and Agatha Christie’s former home at Greenway. There is also a buzzing nightlife in Torquay with funky bars and places to eat on the Quayside and beachside. Dartmouth is just over the river, a pretty boutique town on the banks of the River Dart with Woodlands Theme Park nearby and Exeter with Crealy Theme Park for the thrill seekers. Dartmoor, wonderful for wild open walks and meals by a roaring pub firesides is 30 minutes away and Totnes, a historic hippy castle town is 10 minutes drive on the way to Plymouth, a 40-minute drive away. There is so much to do in our lovely part of the world, we’d love to help you make the most of it. Deb Pricemn l

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.
