OWNER INSIGHT
"My husband and I have owned our flat for in excess of 15 years and bought as a second home to facilitate visiting our elderly parents. We love the location of the flat as it is so peaceful and is in a private tucked away setting. We also find it is so convenient for the shops in St Marychurch and also the lovely beach at Babbacombe with all the bars and restaurants etc. We have had many happy memories in this flat with our parents, family and friends and will sorely miss it when it is sold."
