About us

We're Tamara and Jason, and Hoglets is the lower floor of our family home in Kingsbridge. We remodelled it to be the kind of place we'd love to stay ourselves: light, spacious and a little bit special, with the estuary right outside the window.

We live upstairs, so we're on hand if you need anything, but Hoglets has its own entrance and garden and we'll leave you to enjoy your stay in peace. Our son Olly may greet you on arrival, and we're always happy to share our favourite walks, beaches and places to eat.

We're proud to be Airbnb Superhosts, rated 4.96 out of 5 by our guests. If you've stayed with us before, welcome back: booking directly here is the simplest way to return.

Further information

Getting here and parking: Hoglets is on the edge of Kingsbridge, about half a mile from the town centre along the estuary. Free on-street parking is available nearby.

Access: Hoglets has its own private entrance. It's reached down a sloping driveway and a flight of steps with handrails, so it may not suit guests with limited mobility. You'll pass the front door and side entrance of the main house on the way down.

Privacy: The garden and patio are yours to use exclusively during your stay. As a rule, they can't be seen from inside the main house.

Sleeping: The bedroom has a king-size bed. The living-room sofa bed suits one adult or two small children; a mattress topper is stored in the cupboard off the living room. Please tell us when you book if you'd like it made up.

Heating: Underfloor heating keeps each room at 20°C by default. Laminated cards in the apartment explain how to boost or turn it off. In summer, the blinds help keep the south-facing rooms cool.

WiFi and TV: Fast fibre broadband throughout. The bedroom TV has an Apple TV and the living-room TV has an Amazon Fire TV, so you can log in to your own streaming accounts. Terrestrial channels are available too. WiFi details are in the apartment.

Pool table: The dining table converts into a full pool table, and snooker balls are stored in the benches. Instructions are in the apartment.

Laundry: There's an outdoor rotary drying line with a weather cover at the side of the house.

Family home: We live upstairs, so you may hear the occasional coming and going. The sound insulation is excellent. We also have a very small dog (4kg) who might bark now and then; please let us know if this is a concern.

Safety: There are exterior security cameras on the property, plus smoke and carbon monoxide alarms in the apartment.

Local favourites: The Crabshell Inn is a five-minute walk. Salcombe is about 15–20 minutes by car, or by bus and ferry, and the South Hams beaches, Bigbury-on-Sea and Totnes are all within easy reach.
