Moult Farm Cottages are located in a private lane set back just 100m or so from North Sands beach. Salcombe's town centre is a 10-15 minutes walk away in one direction whilst South Sands beach, Overbecks (National Trust house and gardens) and the South Devon Coastal Path are a short drive away in the other.
Salcombe is a popular destination for watersports enthusiasts, walkers and families looking for a holiday by the sea. There are several pretty beaches within a short distance, including North Sands and South Sands, plus the coves East Portlemouth on the opposite side of the estuary, just a short passenger ferry ride away. Also on your doorstep is the National Trust property Overbeck’s where you can wander through the subtropical gardens. Why not have a more adventurous day and try out the watersports available on the estuary including surfing, coasteering, kayaking or a more leisurely boat trip? Whilst staying in Salcombe, take advantage of the locally sourced seafood which is served in many of the restaurants, pubs, cafés and delicatessens.

Everywhere appeared very clean and lovely holiday home for 6 people. Only downside was the parking outside, itâs easier to park in the lane opposite. There were however an abundance of ticks on the dog so beware. The house is next to trees and long grass, dog even picked up a tick on the driveway. House itself is excellent, just walk your dogs straight to the beach!

Pillow protectors might be a nice addition.

We had to clean the floors before we could walk on them ! The state of the place was disgraceful ! The cottage overall was very worn , stains on the mattress covers and the bedding very worn and off colour . Stains on the furniture and the cottage in general felt unclean . There wasnât a quick turn around as the cottage was vacant for 2 days before we arrived and this was not 1 weekâs dirt ! . Reply from Sykes was it is resolved as cleaning was offered after we complained ! ! . I do not feel the case has been resolved. We did complain the day after as the office was closed when we arrived. I did decline the offer of a cleaner for two reasons because the original cleaner had not done a sufficient job and secondly because we were already occupied in the cottage and we had started our holiday and had personal belongings in that cottage at that time and did not wish anybody to come into the cottage whilst we were there and felt uncomfortable as we had complained about the cleaner for them to come back. We should not have to be inconvenience because of the poor condition of the cottage which should not have been in that state to start with . I feel itâs unacceptable to say itâs resolved when we arrived to a cottage that was filthy and dirty and not one weeks dirt and grime either . you can clearly see from the pictures the state of the cottage and I had to clean the floors the evening we arrived as we could not walk on them. Iâm absolutely amazed that both yourself and the owner feel itâs acceptable for us to arrive at a cottage in that state and not to offer any kind of compensation . We also had to request the âgreen â rubbish bags as none had been left at the property , It's also the only property we have stayed in that does not supply oven gloves, but judging by the responses, we guess health and safety is not a priority. We were however left a list of other cottages in the area, along with all of the relevant key box numbers !
