About this house rental

Choo Choo Mansion is our wonderful holiday let, with sea views, set in the heart of Dawlish town centre (with parking). Leave your cares, and your car, at home as we are situated less than a minutes walk from the train station of Dawlish, the sandy beach and the town centre. Perfect for families, friends or just a romantic get away! The town is packed with amusements, restaurants and little shops.

Soak up the true ambience of a seaside holiday in Dawlish. There is a sandy beach, perfect for sandcastles, crabbing and paddling with the little ones or long walks and watching the sun go down over the water for the romantics.

The town centre holds everything you need, from local supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, amusements and tasty cake shops to boutiques and luscious ice cream vendors.

Our holiday home is a grade 2 listed townhouse, with parking for 3 cars. As you walk in the property you are met with a large hallway, to the left is a spacious reception area with a corner sofa, a 50-inch free view TV, an open fireplace, and soft lighting, everything you need for cosy nights with family and friends. There is also a DVD player and a selection of films to keep you entertained in the evenings after a long day at the beach.

As you return to the hallway, turn left and you pass a convenient downstairs WC, walking on, on the left again, you reach the dining room. The dining room is furnished with a wooden dining table which seats up to 8 guests at any time, perfect for evening dining together.

Upon leaving the dining room turn left and you will enter our shabby chic kitchen area. The kitchen comprises of a large 8 ringed cooker and double oven, Smeg fridge freezer, washing machine, fully equipped with crockery, utensils, pots and pans as well as a coffee machine. The kitchen overlooks our walled garden, one step through the door and you enter our outside area furnished with a large table seating up to 8 guests. Our subtle outside lighting along the walls and on the parasol with help you relax over a meal or drinks al fresco.

Coming back to the hallway at the front of the house is the staircase leading up to five double bedrooms. Being an old house the staircase only has maybe 7 or 8 steps before each landing and a small turn up to the next section of the house, which is helpful for older guests. The first landing holds one spacious double bedroom, which overlooks the garden. Next to this is the main bathroom with a New copper bath, perfect for relaxing and washing the sand off at the end of the day and large separate shower enclosure.

Back into the hallway and a short flight again leads you to a large super king bedroom with sea views. This room also has a large TV for cosy films in bed.

Again up a short set of stairs takes you to two more double bedrooms, one with a kingsize bed overlooking the garden and the other a double.

Lastly, another short flight leads you up to our largest room with a super king bed and sea views. This bedroom also houses a large free view TV for relaxing in the evening. Next to this room is a second bathroom with WC, basin and a shower enclosure which is basically an ensuite to the bedroom.

There is also a double blow up bed for extra guests.

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful property, the house is extremely spacious and has plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. Each room is very well decorated and furnished, and the train memorabilia throughout the house gives it so much character. Tony is an amazing host- very helpful, friendly and responsive, quickly answering any questions. The location of the house is perfect being in the heart of Dawlish, it was so nice being able to leave the car on the driveway and just walk round the corner to the shops, arcade, beach etc. The train station is practically on the doorstep if wanting to leave the car behind and visit other towns by train. We enjoyed having a stroll along the water in Dawlish looking at the black swans, and also a visit to Gays Creamery for some lovely pasties, cakes and ice cream! I would 100% recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay in the area, it is perfect for friends and families especially if there’s quite a few people, the photos don't do the house justice as we were amazed at the space when we arrived. It's clear that so much time, thought and effort has been put in to the property, which makes it more special and personal. We will definitely be returning, and can't wait for our next visit.Thanks so much for a lovely stay!

Lovely house in a great location, everything you need on your doorstep. Took the kids and grand children away for a cheeky little week, couldn't have been better, if your taking children with you a top tip is Crealy adventure park and Woodlands adventure park were brilliant but pre-book your tickets for a discount, The train station is on your doorstep to explore the near by towns, again if there is 9 or more you can book a group ticket. Definitely book again,

We so enjoyed our stay at ChooChoo Mansion! We needed a large place to house our family while we came from the US to a family wedding. This house had plenty of room for our 10 adults to sleep and hang out comfortably and the location couldn't be better. Be sure to check out the black swans, the beach and the pub down the street if you visit!

Pros - Most of the rooms are a good size for a large group, well equipped kitchen and it’s in a great location. Cons - there isn’t a garden - more of a courtyard that didn’t have enough chairs for everyone . The dining room table was only big enough for 8 to sit. The dishwasher is in an outdoor shed - but there’s a washing machine in the kitchen!? Would make sense to swap them!? There’s a lot of uneven floors and stairs which may be a problem for older people.
