Overview
Designed to host large groups of friends and family, Golden Meadow is a celebration home where plush interiors, rivalled only by the encompassing views of Start Bay, exude elegance and comfort throughout. Flagstone terraces, low stone walls and soft-glow lighting lend a distinctly Mediterranean feel to the home’s outdoor areas where unobstructed panoramic views of both the sea and countryside create an away-from-it-all atmosphere and make for the perfect places to share conversation, sunset views and glasses of champagne.
Boasting luxe furnishings, bespoke décor and unique design elements, the interior includes a sweeping entrance hall with open fireplace and occasional seating while at the centre of the space, a mid-century spiral staircase leads to the property’s upper and lower floors. Seven beautifully spacious bedrooms and bathrooms as well as a cinema room and several reception rooms have been individually styled using a combination of textures and fabrics that work together to lend a tactile and boutique-esque edge to every room. Carved wall panelling, luxurious sofas, textile wallpaper, eclectic artwork and creative lighting infuse each area with its own mood, whether enhancing the sumptuousness of the bedrooms or the cosiness of the downstairs cinema room.
Central to this home’s design are the spaces for entertaining and socialising in. The kitchen with its marble splashback, honed silestone countertops, oak flooring and Provencal table is wonderfully equipped to create anything from freshly baked batches of scones to lavish roast dinners, and sports a lacquered breakfast bar island with contemporary stainless steel stools and pendulum lighting. A huge dining room with floor to ceiling glass framed by floaty gauze curtains makes the ideal space to share evening meals, and on warm evenings the integral sliding doors can be opened to reveal an elevated terrace with a stone top table, artisan seating and glass balustrade.
Positioned within easy reach of the clear, calm waters and sun-bleached beaches that line the South Hams coast as well as being only a short drive from the naval town of Dartmouth, this gorgeous home offers guests a magical escape to one of the most sought-after destinations in the country.
Golden Meadow also includes The Workshop; a separate, self-contained one bedroom studio apartment so that guests needing a little extra privacy will have the perfect pad to retreat to.

A Brilliant Week
5/5
5/5
We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Golden Meadow. The views from the house over the fields to the sea were stunning and especially good for bird watching. The kitchen was very well equipped and we were able to enjoy our meals overlooking the sea view. All the bedrooms were of a good quality and the beds were extremely comfortable. We were all able to relax living in the house and there was plenty of space for a large family gathering. The location of Golden Meadow was excellent - a fifteen minute walk to the sea and plenty of nearby places to visit by car. Overall, it was a fantastic week.

Stunning views
4.7/5

We are a group of 60 somethings who holiday together each year. On the whole Golden Meadows was perfect. I feel the reviews that the house is rather tired a little unfair. On the whole the house was great - the kitchen certainly was the most used room - a large space with exceptional views and good equipment and facilities. Seriously steep roads around to get to the house but worth the journey to get the views that we did. The garden would be great had the weather been better - nice areas to sit which sadly we weren't able to take advantage of. All the rooms had really good linen with nice comfortable beds and the house was lovely and warm.

Hi Jude, thank you for your kind words and your review of your stay at Golden Meadow. It was lovely to host you and we are pleased that you had a perfect stay and enjoyed the stunning views, particularly from the kitchen and dining area. We have passed on your feedback to the owners. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back again one day, maybe in nicer weather so that you can enjoy the outside space as well! Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team.

3.8/5

Golden Meadows whilst a nice house was a little bit of a let down for us. We are a group of friends that meet up in various locations once a year and have been doing so for many years. This is the first house ever that we did not receive a welcome pack, not even a pint of milk so we could have a cup of tea on arrival. Considering the amount of money that the house cost and under the banner of luxury I think was far from it. Secondly there was an unpleasant smell coming from at least two of the bathrooms, in particular the workshop and the bedroom closest to the kitchen. Also the cinema room smelt stale. Generally the house, mainly the kitchen, was tired and needs a bit of a revamp. I did give feed back to Luxury Coastal with their reply feeling like a brush off so i dont think I will be booking accommodation through them again even though they offered me a big 5% discount!
Audra, 30 Sep 2024
Hi Audra, Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay at Golden Meadows. We sincerely apologize for the inconveniences you experienced. We understand the importance of a warm welcome, especially for a group of friends reuniting annually. Your comments about the absence of a welcome pack and the condition of the house are noted, and we regret that these aspects did not meet your expectations of luxury. The issues you mentioned, including the unpleasant smells in the bathrooms and cinema room, as well as the overall tired state of the kitchen, are concerning. Please be assured that we are addressing these matters with the utmost urgency during our current maintenance period. We investigated and it was not ourselves you spoke with but the property manager and as you informed them the night before your departure of the feedback there was no action that could be taken, we do apologise for this. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we are committed to improving our services. We hope you might reconsider and give us another opportunity to provide you with a truly luxurious experience in the future. Thank you once again for bringing these issues to our attention. Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team
