We loved Strand Causeway, probably our favourite of all the lovely Classic Cottages we have stayed in. What made it so special was staying in a real much-loved home full of books, paintings and memories. At the same time the bathroom, kitchen and heating had all been modernised to a high standard. The location was great as were the views - we would love to return....

A very beautiful cottage which was lovely and warm when we arrived. Very well equipped and spotless. The cottage is in an ideal location for exploring Topsham and beyond. With only 10minutes walk to the station, you can leave the car behind in the very handy parking space. The summer-house overlooking the Exe provides beautiful views which I imagine on warmer days would be lovely to sit in. We would certainly book this cottage again....

Strand Causeway is a comfortable, well-equipped holiday home, ideally situated for both the town of Topsham and the natural beauty of the Exe estuary. The summerhouse is a fabulous place to sit and watch the ever-changing river scene (even in winter!). Highly recommended....

A very well equipped and comfortable property in an excellent location. It was very clean and tidy. The stairs to the top floor were steeper than anticipated and there is an awkward bend half way up.. The toilets on the ground floor and in the bathroom were rather short of space....

How wonderful to hear you had a comfortable stay at Strand Causeway, we're glad to hear the cleanliness had met expectations, as well as the brilliant location. We do have a note in the description to take care on the second set of stairs as they're steeper than a standard staircase. We're sorry you had found the bathroom to be snug.Thank you- Kayleigh, Customer Support...

This wonderful historic house in Topsham has outstanding views over the Exe estuary and also has its own parking and a heavenly summerhouse at the water’s edge. It is within easy walking distance of pubs, eateries, shops etc. and a train station for trips right round the coast. We hardly needed the car. We loved it and have already booked for 2026....
