From the owner

Sleeps 12/14 in 6 bedrooms. (Maximum of 12 adults.)

It maybe possible outside school holidays to rent just the flat (sleeps 5 in 2 bedrooms) or the house sleeps (8/10 in 4 bedrooms). Just message me.

Although I have only just listed on Trip Advisor I have owned this holiday let for 9 years. Please check out my website (devonholidayhouses) and Facebook page for more photos and special offers.

Friday change over day during busy season. Outside school we are more flexible.

This lovely family house with its useful self-contained garden flat - ideal for grandparents joining family holidays - is a real find thanks to its quiet residential setting just a short five minute stroll downhill (longer on the way up!) to the centre of picturesque Salcombe. The famously pretty yachting town's pretty cobbled streets, shops and bistros are on the doorstep, whilst the lovely sandy beach is just 20 minutes away on foot. Along with it convienent location, amongst its best assets are the views over the town, countryside and scenic Batson Creek from the bedrooms and large decked terrace (very safely enclosed) - best enjoyed whilst cooking up a storm on the BBQ or simply relaxing with glass of wine at the end of a long sunny day!

Crossways is clearly owned by a family with lots of experinece with young children. There's allocated parking outside and a long list of equipment including safety gear like stairgates and plug covers and useful items like bath mats, puree makers, microwave, dishwasher and washer dryer (full list below). All of which assist greatly in insuring a relaxing and enjoyable holiday with babies/toddlers in tow.

The house itself has been recently refurbished and has a lovely, bright, open-plan downstairs area, awash with light from its many picture windows and a well-equipped, stylish contemporary kitchen diner with archway through to the spacious lounge equipped with TV and DVD player. Upstairs, the first floor has a double bedroom, a twin/double (zip'n'link) and a twin, plus a family bathroom (with bath and shower), whilst the attic room on the floor above has a double with Vi Spring mattress (and a chair bed) and ensuite shower room.

The Garden flat proves a very handy extra space for those travelling with larger parties or split family groups. It has been thoughtfully furnished in keeping with the main house and sleeps 5 in one double bedroom and one twin bedroom with a chair bed. Outside, guests taking the whole house have the choice between enjoying the stunning views from the roof terrace (very sfaely enclosed) which is accessed via sliding doors from the main kitchen, or enjoying the pretty lawned garden, both boast outdoor furniture and barbeques . Either has enough space for a small padding pool or scooting about on a small ride-on.

One well behaved dog welcome for £25.

We have tried to think of everything you could wish to be available:

Changing mat

Toilet training seat

Potty

High chairs. There are three in the house and one in the flat.

Travel Cots. There are three in the house and one in the flat.

Kiddy guard stair gates at the top of both flights of stairs

Bath mat and baby bath

Electric socket covers

Children plates, bowls, cups and cutlery

Plenty of toys, books, games and children's dvds

Puree Maker

After the birth of their first son - owners Jane Brown and Tim Wells quickly learnt that travelling with a little one can be hard work with having to remember the travel cot, the high chair, the toys, the bath things etc. They looked to create a family friendly holiday home in their favourite seaside town of Salcombe. They fell in love with the beauty and pace of life in Salcombe.

If you are looking for a family friendly holiday let then Crossways is the place for you.

Tim and Jane now have 4 children and have owned holiday lets since 2001, and so have plenty of experience in holidaying with young children and looking after guests!
