Fantastic week at Mintons the views and the house are both stunning. Can’t fault this property privilege to stay here. The village location is perfect with many pubs and shops on the doorstep.
Mrs Sanis February 2022
Mintons is a really lovely house that delighted all our family. It is so comfortable with the best beds and pillows, beautiful sofa towels and comfortable chairs. The games room was wonderful for the teenagers. The interesting decoration, the cleanliness and fully equipped kitchen was so much appreciated. Good parking for two smallish cars. Views over the water were a joy and a very short walk to an excellent pub a bonus. ...

Shaldon is a lovely village, and the location of the house within it is great. On several days, we didn't use the car at all, as it is very easy to walk to the beach, to excellent local pubs / restaurants, to excellent "crabbing" locations, and to the foot ferry to Teignmouth. Excellent to be able to park both cars under the house. The house has plenty of space, and the layout of the living area is ideal. The bedrooms are all pleasant, although the furnishings in one room are inadequate....

We were disappointed with our stay at Mintons. When we arrived we soon discovered that only the en-suite toilet was working and the other two toilets were broken and unusable. After contacting the owner numerous times about this, a plumber was finally sent out four days into our stay but unfortunately couldn’t fix either toilet. The final offer of a 10% refund to compensate this was disappointing and we feel very dissatisfied with this outcome. There were also issues with cleanliness in some areas of the property and also an issue with the outside bins which were almost full on arrival and quite smelly. The only place to keep them is right next to the bbq which we thought was not very hygienic. We did put them outside the gate but was asked politely by the neighbour to move them back into the courtyard as they looked unsightly on the path. The bins were not emptied during our stay. Shaldon is a lovely place to stay, the food at The Clipper Cafe, The London Inn & The Ferry Boat Inn was top quality, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. We also liked the bakery, fish and chip shop and the butchers. There are many things to do in Shaldon, we enjoyed the visiting the zoo, botanical gardens, crabbing and walking across the bridge to Teignmouth and catching the ferry back to Shaldon. ...

We are sorry that you are disappointed following the refund which you accepted. We do wish that we had the opportunity to investigate the points that you have raised with the cleanliness and bins at the time but of course have shared with the owner. We are delighted to read that you enjoyed Shaldon and so hope to welcome you back to the area in the future. Sarah, Customer Support...
