The historic 14th century Sloop Inn is a stone's throw from the front door.

The house has a reverse-level arrangement with living spaces on the first floor, making the most of the panoramic views of Bigbury Bay and iconic Burgh Island. It is a beautiful place to spend time with family and friends.

Just what was needed!

This property was brilliant for our stay! The views across to the beach and Burgh island are fantastic - and the change of scenery was just what we needed! The property has everything you would need - with a few mod cons thrown in. Would honestly love to live there!

Wonderful property and place

Absolutely great property which has been well organised and provides you with all home comforts. With 360 degree views of the Bantham area we loved staying at Sloopside Annex. We spent our days walking, relaxing on the beach and exploring the area.

Fabulous

What a fabulous property! Extremely well equipped home from home. The views are amazing and a five minute walk from a glorious beach and lots of other walks linking to the SW Coast path. The pub next door is great and some lovely places to eat a bit further afield. We had a lovely time and being the Easter weekend when we arrived there were some lovely chocolate gifts waiting for us! We were really well looked after and any questions I had were responded to immediately.

5* accommodation in a beautiful location!

We have now stayed in Sloopside Annexe three times and can highly recommend. Impeccably clean and tastefully decorated, the property offers comfort, luxury and spectacular views. Being located next to the Sloop inn you have the option to cook in the well equipped kitchen or walk one minute to a family friendly, welcoming pub. Excellent communication from the owner so 5* all round!!

Wonderful location especially for dogs!

A really special location with wonderful views across to Burgh Island. Clean, comfortable and very well equipped-a gem! Even though the weather was not kind we managed several walks on the beach and some good meals at the Sloop

Quality accomodation

A Top Quality Comfortable accommodation. The property has fantastic views of Burgh island within a few yards of the village pub, therefore an excellent location. It's well maintained, spotlessly clean with great owners and an excellent property manager to hand if you ever need them - You won't. What's not to love!
