We would HIGHLY recommend a stay at this cottage. We were so pleased to see a welcome pack of tea,coffee, biscuits and milk when we arrived! Such a thoughtful touch! The conservatory looking out on the river was wonderful! And to sit in bed in the morning watching the river was just brilliant! Everything was spotless and there were plenty of informRead moreation sheets around the place. Thankyou for a wonderful stay in Bideford! We will definitely return in the future. Perfect location for the town! Hide

We had a really lovely stay at Tidal Reach, the view of the river is lovely to wake up to and changes throughout the day. A very easy 20 minute walk into Bideford. Every piece of equipment we could need. Lovely bedding and towels and very comfortable beds. Would like to go again. Thank you.

Really lovely place that we look forward to visiting again later this year. Only one observation. Bathroom Ceiling is peeling so could do with a refurb, when time allows.

Our second visit, no doubt you'll see us again. We had a lovely day at Hartland Abbey & another further afield at Lydford Gorge. Good weather made all the difference. We hired bikes & cycled to Instow on the Tarka trail. Good food & generous portions at the Instow Arms.

Tidal Reach is the perfect holiday home from home. It has everything you need for a great break and the position, overlooking the river at the back, is well placed for a supermarket and Bideford centre. It is well equipped, the beds are comfy and the owners are helpful and friendly. Definitely recommended.

We couldn't fault this clean, comfortable & well equipped cottage. Easy walk into town. We were lucky with the weather & enjoyed a very calm sunny walk around Baggy Point.

Lovely comfortable accommodation - everything you need for a great holiday. Nice treats as a welcome for us and the dogs. Felt safe and secure. Great riverside views. Nice park to walk the dogs in - just a 5 minute walk away. Slept really well in gorgeous comfy beds - or was it the sea air?? No it was the bed
