Fitness-friendly holiday rentals in South West England

We stayed in apartment 38 for a week in July 2021. It exceeded my expectations and the pictures do not do it justice (the pictures make it look a bit dated but it really isn’t). It is a lovely 3 bed apartment - very clean throughout. The bedrooms and bathroom are on the first floor and the stairs lead up to the living area and kitchen! The kitchen comes with a fridge, dishwasher, cooker and oven. You also get all your basic cooking utensils and dishes alongside cleaning products including dishwasher tablets. One thing I would suggest is taking some tupperware to store your food in or if you want to make a picnic. The description also stated they provided cooking oil - but there wasn’t any - so it’s worth taking some if you want to make a full english in the morning. We ordered a Tesco online shop which was delivered straight to the apartment without any problems. Note, the pools (indoor and outdoor) are not heated so can be quite cold. The indoor pool area is a bit tired looking with the paint peeling off the floor - but the kids still had a fab time. The gym is also well equipped with weight and cardio machines…but again some of the padding on the machines are a bit worn. Overall we had a fab time, the views are amazing. Meadfoot beach is literally on the doorstep and the town is only a 15min walk away. Paignton beach (10min drive) is great for the kids if you want a bit more hustle and bustle i.e. Pier with arcades and fairground. Also recommend The Inn on the Green for lovely pub grub - they are directly opposite the Paignton pier and the staff were fab too.

An amazing apartment with great views in a modern development. Loads of great places nearby - you must try the Bagel cafe. Super responsive hosts who were so helpful. Thank you!

Super apartment, perfect for 2 people, spacious bedroom and bathroom and well-designed living area. Thoughtful, helpful touches such as breakfast goods, milk, beach towels. Extremely quick and friendly communication from the hosts. Highly recommended.

Really great location to get into Portsmouth via the ferry. Lovely clean flat with super comfy beds. Host had kindly left tea and coffee etc. The Bakehouse bar/ restaurant round the corner on the waterfront is worth a visit. Great communication from owner. 100% recommend.

Great stay in a central location, apartment was clean tidy and modern, and a lovely gift on arrival was most unexpected. Thanks Arron, really enjoyed it!

Great apartment, very clean and spacious. Everything you need is there and it’s really close to the town centre and all of the beaches. This is the second time we have stayed and we will hopefully return in 2023.

This was our first time booking an AirBnB and I needn't have worried. Marcus is a great host, very helpful and the property was exactly like the photos and description. It was in a perfect location for us, in a quiet part of town, but just a 10 minute walk to the town centre where there were some great pubs and Newquays beaches and harbour are also not far away. We found it very quiet in the apartment and weren't disturbed by any noise at all. We thought the Christmas tree and other decorations were a lovely touch and we felt at home and very comfortable.

Great communication, lovely place to stay in and the private car parking was a bonus. Will be using sea breeze again for sure. Thanks!

Had a very relaxing holiday. Our first BNB experience in the UK and maureen made us feel very comfortable. The house is really peaceful, with a good vibe and recommend it for a good couple or a family getaway. If I’m in Bournemouth again, I would for sure check in at Maureen’s!

Lovely flat in great location with excellent communication from host.

Great place to stay very private

Had a fantastic stay at Mike’s studio flat and first floor bedroom for a long weekend. The flat is situated on the top floor of the house and was absolutely spotless. The bed was super comfy and the flat had everything we needed for a comfortable weekend. My friend stayed on the first floor and had a lovely, spacious bedroom with own bathroom. Mike is a wonderful host, very friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend staying here if in the Bridgend area. We would love to stay again :) thank you Mike.

Travelled to Cardiff for rugby weekend. Sam’s place was perfect, close to city centre and local amenities. Apartment was spotless. Directions and instructions very clear. Sam was the perfect host, quickly responding to any queries. Would thoroughly recommend.

We stay there for couple of nights for a quiet time. I felt it was really nice and tranquil and very scenic. I really enjoyed my time

Our son is in his first year at Warwick Uni and Julie’s place is very close to his Campus……… and it was perfect for what we needed. Having stayed at a Premier Inn previously this was a much better choice! So much cleaner, a friendlier welcome, more homely and better value. If we are welcome back we will definitely use again. Thank you

Simple, comfortable, cozy and clean. a great spot to get into Dartmoor and have some great walks. Bed very comfy for a good night's sleep! We arrived late at night and found it no problem with easy check in and out. Hosts made themselves available for anything we might need but everything was so clear instructions wise we only bumped into them on the checkout morning. Very friendly.

Lovely place very spacious we add a very comfortable stay definitely will book again host was amazing 5 star from me

Eastholme is a beautiful, modern property, set back from the road and surrounded by a beautiful garden. Ideally located for the beach, Eastholme is a fantastic base from which to explore Trevone. The interior of the property was modern but felt like a home from home

We have just arrived home after a fantastic stay. The lodge was beautiful with everything that we needed. There is lots to do locally as well as in the resort. We enjoyed it so much that we have already booked for another stay in Easter. Thank you once again.

House was stunning and was great for hosting a group of friends, had all the kitchen appliances I needed to cook for 9 people. Beds were comfy and had no issues with the house at all... Highly Recommend staying here!

Just what was needed to break the monotony of winter. Gorgeous setting, so quiet and tranquil and enough to do should you want. House was as described , perfect location to explore Cotswolds area. Great recommendation for Thai takeaway on our arrival day given the lateness ! Excellent food. The wood fired hot tub was a wonderful addition and clear instructions on how to start the fire and the wood burner inside also . Definitely would visit again. Rob and James were excellent hosts. Thank you 🙏🏽

We had a really lovely stay this weekend for 2 nights as a little getaway. We had 2 toddler boys who loved having lots of toys to play with, the garden looked amazing too however the weather said otherwise! Frances was really great communicating with us & made us feel really comfortable.

We had such a memorable Christmas at Ceris’s home . Even more perfect was the children’s room that our kids loved . Each room had a home from home feeling. Myself and my husband left feeling inspired by Ceris design of her home for our own . You won’t regret picking Ceris home for your stay

Sharon went above and beyond to make sure our Christmas week was warm, cosy and full of treats and sparkle! The place was beautifully decorated and we had everything we needed for a wonderful stay, thank you so much. Our Springer also loved it there, plenty of local places to walk the dog too.
