We had a wonderful week staying in March House. The property was clean and well equipped and the open plan layout was a great space for family entertaining. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub and swimming pool & we played games on the lawn in the evening. Wembury beach is within walking distance and we had several walks along the coastal paths.

Fabulous property and great location! Really enjoyed our stay at March House.

We stayed here with three generations of the same family. Everyone agreed that it was absolutely perfect. The house was immaculate, the swimming pool and hot tub were fantastic.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at March House, and with awful weather the hot tub and swimming pool were well used.

We had a wonderful relaxing week at March House. Terry greeted us and showed us how to use pool and few other things in house plus local info. The house had everything we needed, clean and with a few goodies to welcome you. Pool was great even in pouring rain and the dark! Lovely area to explore on foot or by car.

Sandra
Great holiday had by all of us ,house very comfortable and we all enjoyed the swimming pool. Very quiet and relaxing place to stay.
Sue
The house was idyllic; a lovely space for two families and very well equipped for catering. We were lucky with the weather and enjoyed the pool and garden, but would have been just as happy inside. The view from 3 of the bedrooms is beautiful and the beach just a short walk down the hill. It was the perfect setting for a very happy holiday.
Raphael
Lovely property. Great location and very well set up for a family trip. Pool was lovely and warm during our stay and we used it most days. Great friendly service too. Thanks for a great holiday.
Sallianne
March House is situated in a very tranquil setting and the view from the house is outstanding with almost immediate access to Wembury Beach and the South West Coastal path. The garden is attractively landscaped with the pool and hot tub giving it a holiday feel. The house itself is comfortable, well appointed and spacious.

loved the house, pool garden, views, everything no problems at all, maybe move the bookcase located on the wall from the kitchen into utility room, kept waling into it, my fault.
Lynda
Everything you want and more from a holiday house.
Mark
Great location. Make sure you wear shoes on decking and balcony.
Rosa Maeve
March House was gorgeous and we had such a lovely time! The place is in such a fantastic location, with so many walks available directly from the front door. The living area is the perfect place for socialising and cooking, the garden is beautiful - we used the swimming pool every day, and saw a little rabbit munching the grass every morning and evRead moreening. Upstairs, everything was immaculate and the master bedroom with balcony was like being in a dream! We would love to return soon! Hide
Vicki
A lovely house with amazing views. Well equipped and spacious. We had a wonderful stay here. The scones and clotted cream on arrival was a lovely touch! Pool slightly chilly for young children and you cant touch the bottom of the pool but nice and refreshing for adults and good swimmers.
