Very clean accommodation and good communication with the owner. As stated, the stairs are steep and were a bit of a challenge for our group of 70+ year olds! Totnes is a great place to visit and this cottage is an ideal base.

Gails house is ideally located for exploring Totnes, yet quiet and tucked away. The house was immaculately clean, very well equipped and clear instructions for using the appliances.

3 Storie Property in Totnes full of character
A delightful property situated in the heart of Totnes at the top of the hill. Well equipped & very clean. The owners have gone to a great deal of trouble to make your stay a comfortable one. Great friendly communication too with well organized instructions throughout the house. Loved the log fire to create a cosy warm atmosphere in these October evenings. Lovely comfortable beds too. Would stay here again. Thanks Gail, we loved staying here.

Well appointed, pretty cottage in heart of Totnes
Clean, neat and tidy property. Well equipped kitchen with instructions for use of electric items (ie: oven). All amenities close by and a very short walk into town with bars/restaurants/shops. Would recommend this property to family, friends, etc as a lovely place to stay for a break.

A convenient and comfortable stay.
We had a great time at Leechwell House. The house had everything we needed. It was clean and beautifully presented but comfortable too. We felt as though we were staying in a little bit of Totnes’ history. The house is convenient for Totnes town with its quirky shops, good restaurants and walks by the river. Parking was no problem but next time we thought we might come by train as we hardly used the car - there was so much to do within a short walk.

A great place to stay
We had a wonderful stay in a great town. The house is lovely - cosy, really well equipped, spotlessly clean - and Gail couldn't have been more helpful. We're really looking forward to a return visit in 2021.

Beautiful house, fully equipped and spotlessly clean. The location is perfect, with easy access to a beautiful little bustling town. Plenty of car parks within a few minutes walk of the house and loads of gorgeous beaches within 20-30 minutes drive. Absolutely perfect!

Pristine property with everything you need to make you feel at home!
Great property in the heart of Totnes made for a great base from which we could explore south Devon. Really nicely decorated and furnished with lots of thoughtful extras (like washing up liquid, tea towels and salt-we always forget to take). Only gripe I guess is the parking, bought a weekly parking permit but inadvertently parked on the wrong car park for two days and got two tickets as a result :'-( Otherwise
We had a great family week away and would highly recommend it!!! :-D

Lovely house in a lovely town in a great location. Centrally located easy access to shops.
Spent a week in Totnes which is well located for trips to the beach and seaside towns e.g. Brigham and Dartmouth. Beautiful coastal scenery on the road from Slapton to Dartmouth. Beesands was a lovely quiet spot for a walk and my kids enjoyed kite flying there. I recommend Woods Bistro for lunch which is close to the lovely house we stayed in.
The house is over 3 floors and is well equipped with lots of information supplied. The rooms are of a good size and well decorated. A short distance from the lovely high street which had loads of independent shops and a must for craft and jewellery enthusiasts.
