“Picturesque and peaceful for a relaxing family holiday.”
Great Easter holiday, beautiful house with plenty of space inside and out. A short walk down to the beach where you can catch a foot ferry to Plymouth - a great way to see Kingsand & Cawsand.
Plenty of pubs (so no need to cook) we especially liked the Devenport, Cross Keys and the Rising Sun - all child friendly too! If you do feel the need to cook the village store has everything you need.
Hope to be back soon

We had a wonderful half term holiday in this charming and comfortable house, which was very well and thoughtfully equipped - we especially appreciated the comfy beds! The house is light, bright and spacious and we loved the layout which maximised space and was ideal for family holiday living.
The newly created terraced garden is lovely and it was a great treat to have breakfast on the terrace enjoying the stunning views in the autumn sun.
The location is perfect in the beautiful and friendly seaside village, enhanced by the
lack of cars on the streets. We had a lovely day out at Porfell, great walks and pub lunches. Especially recommended are the View restaurant and The Devonport pub.
We will certainly be back!

Verified Homeowner
Why is Lupain Holiday Rentals the only holiday rental company to verify the ownership of holiday accommodation? Research has shown that not all advertisers are genuine. There have been cases where people have booked holiday accommodation only to find out it does not exist.
This sort of ‘scam’ is hard to comprehend but these days fraudsters are coming up with ever more imaginative ways of obtaining money by deception from innocent people like you. We do not want holidaymakers who book with us to fall victim to this type of scheme. Money is mostly hard earned we know, so taking a holiday is usually a major expense. In addition, we do not want you to remember us for a shattered dream.
Therefore, in order to protect you we have introduced our Owner Verification Scheme. We ask all holiday home advertisers to submit proof that they own the property they are advertising. Only when we are satisfied that an advertiser and their property is genuine do we add our Green Shield to their property advert. Apart from being a deterrent, it also encourages advertisers to make sure they verify their property, giving you peace of mind when you make your booking.
If you want to make a booking look for the Green Shield on the top right of the property advert, if you do not see our Green Shield it may mean we have not yet completed the verification process. We normally complete this process within a few days if no verification is forthcoming the advert is removed.
We take this Owner Verification Scheme very seriously for your protection. If you have any doubts about the validity of an advert or misrepresentation please contact us with your concerns.
Please note, Lupain Holiday Rentals does not verify the advertisement content placed on this website by property owners, nor do we offer any guarantee as to the correctness of the advertising information placed on this website by third parties.
