This is talented pianist Michael (filmed by his lovely wife Jean) who couldnt resist bringing our ole h***y tonk to life during their visit!

We love when our guests play the piano at the house when they stay - its been in the family for many years and never seems to need re-tuning!

What a lovely job Elliot has done to refresh our much treasured wooden floor!
Repaired, cleaned, sanded and carefully oiled several times and finally buffed up to all its glory!
Beautiful job!!

If you don't fancy renting a holiday house, we'd love to recommend A&J Caravan Hire in Torbay - very comfortable and fully equipped caravans with only a 16 minute walk to the beach! Treat yourself to a long weekend or a week this Spring or Summer!! Big selection available but best not wait too long, as bookings are already coming in!

We ❤️ Three Degrees West ❤️

English Tourism Week Day 1

For we have decided to spend our ten days focussing on how brilliantly beautiful Babbacombe Bay is.
We want to share our pictures with as many people as possible and do our little bit to show the world what a fantastic place this is.

Babbacombe is full of great places to visit with its own museum, theatre and model village. It's also home to great hotels, B&Bs, self-catering accommodation and every kind of dining option you could want.

So, it's already an amazing place to holiday and enjoy. But, add to that the beauty of what we have here and you're on to a real winner.

From 14-23 March, at 8am each day, we will post an uplifting image from a selection of pics to provide a glimpse into what's on offer in terms of gorgeousness. We hope it gives you a flavour.

Talking of flavours.....

For those of you who don't know, we are Three Degrees West, a cafe, takeaway and function venue down on the stunning Oddicombe Beach in beautiful Babbacombe.
Currently open from 9am, Wednesday to Sunday but open 7 days a week throughout the summer.
