10 The Gardens Reviews

Stephen
We had a very enjoyable stay over New Year, 4 adults and 2 dogs. Very comfortable with lots of space. The dogs loved the enclosed garden.
Lovely place to stay. Plenty of open space and interesting walk down to the beach! The property had everything we needed and especially liked the Welcome bag, it really did keep giving. Would definitely stay there again.
The size of the house was a lovely surprise and the setting exceptional, very comfortable for 4 adults and a dog. The welcome pack was much appreciated. Only 2 things to mention, a distinct lack of bedroom furniture which meant some clothes had to stay in the cases, and the railings around the garden would not keep a very small dog in, but, neither spoilt our enjoyable stay.
10 The Gardens is a great property. It was clean and spacious. We can recommend the walk to the beach which is 30 minutes through beautiful woodland. Our children enjoyed the space on the estate to play cricket and use their scooters. It is a very peaceful property and a perfect place to explore the local destinations. We enjoyed the walk from Seaton to Beer. Thank you.
