Stunning location beautiful view and great location for Salcombe shops etc, easy check in/out! Very clean and all things needed for our stay was there! Fairly spacious even for 6 adults!
We loved the location and the views from the house are outstanding. Everything is clean and tidy with great communication from the hosts. The description is very accurate. Some reviews had worried me about the driveway but itâs very straightforward, just takes some extra care as you turn in.
We stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024, and would have happily stayed another 3 weeks. The property has parking that we were well directed to, on the check-in instructions, and is close enough to everything, without being âtooâ in the thick of it. The view from the sitting room is unrivaled, and where we spent most of our time. If I had any complaints, it would be that the TV is fussy, and there was no dish towel in the kitchen. Both small things that didnât really impact our stay. We would happily stay at Orchid House again, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
The property was central in the town in walking distance to all amenities with stunning views over the estuary.
All rooms were clean and well maintained with a well appointed kitchen although we ate out all the time.
Would definitely book again recommend to others.
We really do love it here, the location is so good, and it has the most amazing views. Now we have 4 teenagers it's a bit more of a squeeze but it actually still works so well for us.
Unpleasant smell, living area only caters for 4 people
Downstairs we were greeted with smell of drains and upstairs the small of vomit near dining room table. We thought the money we paid was good value and the hosts very amenable but the prices going forward do not reflect the fact that the living area only caters for four people (4 dining chairs, 4 lounge seats). The furniture is looking tired and not in keeping with modern trends.
Lovely house in a fantastic location with the best view in Salcombe! We had a lovely long Easter weekend in the sun. The house was very comfortable and well equipped.
The Orchid house has been family owned for nearly thirty years and our friends and family continue to enjoy its great location, for its easy access into town, for the beautiful views and for experiencing all that Salcombe and the surrounding area has to offer. We hope you do too!
Salcombe is a captivating harbour town surrounded by a scenically beautiful coastline and unspoilt countryside. Whether you are planning a short break, a family holiday, new to the area or come back time and again, whether you are a sailor, walker, beach-lover, the Orchid House is perfectly situated to enjoy the area's distinct charm, attractions and many activities.
The Orchid House is only minutes walk from the town centre, shops, restaurants and the passenger ferries to East Portlemouth. The sunny interior is fully equipped and its main attraction is the stunning panoramic views of the estuary. A sun terrace offers an outside seating and dining area. There is private off street parking and free WiFi.
