The Loft Apartment @ Lower Coombe Royal

Lower Coombe Royal is hidden away among acres of historic gardens on the edge of Kingsbridge in South Devon.

There are 8 acres of beautiful gardens and woods to explore and all within 10 minutes walk of the amenities of Kingsbridge and 15 minutes drive from the beautiful sandy South Ham's beaches. The Loft is a great base to explore the local area, we are also within easy reach of the South West Coast path and Dartmoor, but there are many wonderful walks straight from the property too!

The Loft is located above the garage of the main Edwardian House. It is accessed through the garden and is located directly next to the play area, it has its own private seating area with a small lawn and a BBQ. The Loft has its own allocated parking space, approximately 50-100 metres away.

The Loft at Coombe Royal
A contemporary open plan apartment with excellent shower and toilet room and sizeable bedroom. We used the kitchen facilities extensively, loved the induction hob (must get one!). Very clean and comfortable and excellent information pack with several great walks in the beautiful Devon countryside. Ten minute walk into Kingsbridge which was a nice buzzy little town on an estuary. We had our dog with us and there were plenty of good walks in the immediate vicinity. I over-enthusiastically made toast on arrival, setting off the smoke alarm, which meant we got to meet Julie, the host, who was very friendly and helpful. No problem in recommending it for a couple, with or without dog!

No windows!
I know there is a photo online but we didn’t realise until we arrived that there were no windows at all with clear glass. We felt as though we were in a dungeon, admittedly a very clean and nicely presented one. The bedroom had a small frosted glass window, and the door had frosted glass. I like to be in touch with the outdoors, so it didn’t suit me. Also it was extremely irritating to receive an email and two texts with instructions on the cleaning and tidying required on check out, and two remind
