Exceptional accommodation in a lovely location near the tidal estuary of the river Torridge. We love the space that the house and the conservatory afford. The views are spectacular and the location is ideal to gain access to the local park, the town center and the Tarka Trail. It is also a very tranquil place even if you only want to sit and watch Read morethe tide ebb and flow. If you get an opportunity to come and stay, do it!

Tidal Reach is only 10 minutes from the centre of Bideford. It was clean, beds were comfortable and the broadband good. However, the pictures on the website give a misleading impression of the property. The view of the estuary is very limited due to the concrete wall, the lounge has no natural daylight and the house itself is in the middle of a busRead morey housing estate and there was noise from adjacent properties. It could also have been better equipped with glasses, bin bags and toilet rolls! Hide
