The house was beautiful, we had a get together with 11 of our friends all in our early to mid twenties, we loved it, the games room was brilliant and handy with the hot tub right outside, the bedrooms were so spacious, we will definitely return
Brenda
We have just had a short break in Green tor , and the house is immaculate and , comfy , everything we hoped it would be and more . The younger members of our family loved the pool , basket ball , table tennis and the cinema room . We are certainly going back next year
This property is brilliant. Accommodation of the highest standard, warm clean and superbly equipped. Bedding of good quality.. .we were a party of 14 including a small child and there was room enough for all. I particularly liked the small snug room. 2 bottles of Prosecco was very welcome. The only very minor criticism I have is that the kettle was in one side of the very large kitchen and the very modern American style fridge was in the opposite one, quite a trek. Would not hesitate to book this property again and this was the opinion of all .
A fantastic stay. The house was spacious and offered different rooms to relax in. Location perfect.
Stephen
2nd year in a row for us as a family of 7. This house has so many pluses, size, bedrooms, games room, cinema room and jacuzzi. The kitchen needs updating, the oven door is broken and therefore food takes longer to cook as the oven takes an age to warm up. We also had trouble with the fridge which has some issues around getting cold and holding temperature, plus water and ice machine didn't work. We did report this but nothing was done as we expected as what could the owner have done other than buy a new fridge. Fortunately it was cold outside so we didn't lose any food, however things like this need checking regularly and remeding as this is a necessity for keeping food etc fresh. This property comes with a price so things like this need sorting out in our opinion.
Jackie
Our 3rd year running at Green Tor and it didn't disappoint. It's in a perfect location for our early Christmas family get together. The house is so cosy and welcoming. It's just like home from home for us. We had a day at the Alpamare which has reopened this year and the kids loved the Santa train and feeding the squirrels in Peasolm park. All in all another successful year. The Docherty's
Plenty of quality equipment available for cooking Christmas dinner for 14 of us. Lovely and warm house. A shoe rack in the rear lobby would be helpful and the existence of the tumble drier could have been included in the property description. It would have soothed the anxieties of the childrens parents! I do not recognise some of earlier reviewers complaints. The back steps are completely safe in normal conditions, and a bag of rock salt was provided at the bottom of them so even if you arrive in icy conditions you can treat them. The lounge furniture did not smell and there was no picture covered in mould in the downstairs toilet. We had a wonderful time!
Very tired decor. Downstairs toilet has a picture on the wall which is covered in thick mould. Steps to back door became wet in driving rain and four of us slipped on them in the same place. I had the worst slip and ended up in A&E with a torn ligament and chipped bone in my left foot!! Im now having to pay out a fortune to get someone to walk my dog not to mention the pain and suffering! They should put some anti slip surface down on the steps.
Brilliant house, plenty of space and great location. Games room was superb. Hot tub superb. Hope to book again next year.
Patricia
Wonderful house, games room a big bonus. Perfect location. Thank you for the Prosecco, that was a lovely touch. Thanks for swift action on lack of knives, the cleaning manager was friendly and helpful and also provided an extra water jug. The cinema room really needs some ventilation. A few more sevingmixing bowls would be appreciated as well as some food basics such as salt. An excellent holiday for all 14 of us.
We had an excellent stay at Green Tor. No complaints at all.
Michael
Lovely property in a fantastic location for the North beach and Peasholm Park. The games room was well used but could do with a light over the dart board and two decent cues. The theatre room was great with a good supply of films. Ideal for a lovely family holiday.
Everything about Green Tor is great! The position within a five minute walk of all that the North Bay has to offer, the facilities at the house, the comfort and cleanliness are all five star. We were a family party of eleven ranging from 5 to 75 and there was something for everyone even on the rainy days when the games room came into its own! We will certainly be back. Just one suggestion we found we didnt use the dining room for meals and the kitchen was a bit of a squeeze, so knocking through to make one big kitchendiner would be a huge improvement.
Lovely house and a great stay. One minor issue with a blown fuse on the first morning sorted out very quickly. Would definitely stay again.
Great property for large groups. Everything you could want is there for a fun filled time. Great location. Games room well equipped, kids loved the cinema room and hot tub perfect for the adults. Kitchen well equipped for cooking meals, lovely comfy beds. Only issue was bbq probably could do with replacing and maybe a cover to protect it.
Rachel
Fantastic property. There were 7 adults and 6 children in our group and it suited us all. Kitchen very well equipped. Lovely large living room with plenty of seating. Games room and cinema room were great for keeping the kids entertained. Bedrooms all a reasonable size and comfortable. Property generally clean throughout. Only issue that was flagged was that the skylight in the top bathroom was leaking a bit when it rained. Locationwise, it's a 1015 min walk to Tesco Express and a decent pub Tunny Catch. Less than 5 mins to a One Stop. Right over the road from Peasholm Park lovely place to walk around and has a cafepedalos. Less than 10 min walk down to the beach and to the North Bay Railway.
Alison
Family weekend to celebrate 60th birthday. What an amazing house and facilities in a fantastic location. 100 recommend.
Great house for a larger group. Spotlessly clean, with every facility needed. With just a few minutes walk to the north beach, the location is fantastic too. We all enjoyed our holiday and would definitely stay here again.
Stephen
The whole family loved the weekend. We didn't venture far because of the hot tub, games & cinema room which were fab. We are already considering booking for the same time next year.
Jackie
Another great week at Green Tor. This is the second time we've stayed here and it's absolutely fab. The kids talk about it all year round and hopefully the lovely memories of our special family week together will last forever. The house is in a great location for everything and is so warm and cozy. We took the kids on the Santa Train and got tickets for Beauty & The Beast at the Stephen Joseph Theatre which was brilliant. A special mention must go to Bernadette nothing is too much trouble for her. Hopefully see you then same time next year. Thanks Jackie
Barbara
We had a fantastic weekend at this property to celebrate a family members 40th birthday. The house was comfortable, clean very well equipped and perfect for a mixed age family. The gamescinema room and hot tub an added bonus. The owners responded very quickly to a query about lack of heating to the top floor. Would definitely recommend Green Tor and hope to return at some point.
Caroline
Beautiful house which is very well equipped for all.
Stephen
The property is true to the pictures on the website. The house was extremely clean, the kitchen has every type of utensil you could possibly need, plenty of prep space and a table big enough for all guests to sit around and chat. The other areas of the house were equally as comfortable for us 9 adults & 4 children. The icing on the cake is the gamescinema room, adults & children loved it. The hot tub was excellent to chill out in, the addition of a shower room in the Games room was really convenient when using the hot tub better than trailing through the house dripping all over the floors and great big fluffy towels specifically for the hot tub too. We couldnt fault the house or the outside area and would definitely recommend to friends and family.
Elaine
A spacious, comfortable house in a great location. Games room and cinema room proved very popular. Access to cinema room tricky for older and younger members of the group 2 and 88. Some maintenance issues water comes out of overflow when shower in use, chair legs in cinema room wobbly. Kitchen catered for 12 people well. A pizza cutter would have been welcome and there was only 1 pizza tray. These are however minor points and did not detract from what is a fantastic property.
Fabulous week in a wonderful house and setting. Plenty of room for all of us with great facilities. House very clean and the cinema and games room were well used! Hope to return again next summer!
Barbara
Great location and very roomy, bedrooms great. The kitchen however was in need of some updating and care decoration chipped some chairs needed mending and cooking facilities not really adequate for size of property. Similarly with the hot tub and games room, equipment broken, hot tub needed cleaning. We have not found the owners helpful at all, from initial booking to resolving item mistakenly left on the premises.
We stayed at Green Tor for 3 nights, a mixed group of adults and children and we all had a wonderful time. The facilities are really well thought out and plenty of everything you need for a large group. Very nice large rooms and the living room was a really great size so we could all be together, same for the dining room. Very clean property. The garden, games room and hot tub are all really nice. Lots to do in the games room. Fantastic location, close to the sea front as well as shops and bars etc. The park across the road is large and a nice place to visit. Highly recommended.
Had a great family break at Green Tor. Clean, tidy, spacious, everything you need. Set with a lovely garden, hot tub very private. Peasholm Park across the road and a short walk to the beach. Definately will return.

Jackie
This house is the most perfect house ever for young and old. The house overlooks Peasolm Park and is so cosy and warm. We had an early Christmas so all the family could be together. The diningcooking facilities were brilliant. The owners even popped round with more glasses and serving dishes when they found out we were making Christmas dinner! The games room is great for the kids with a cinema room as well. It was perfect all being in the same room to watch the World Cup final pity it wasnt England. Visited the Alpamare which is only 2 minutes away and some of us went to the wellness spa which is well worth a visit. We took the kids on the Santa Train which was great. Absolutely fantastic week and hopefully well do it all again next year.
Louise
Lovely home for the weekend. We had a great 70th birthday with my mum and the whole family. Thank you.
This property is absolutely brilliant. We have an annual family pre Christmas gathering and we could wish for nothing. The facilities for cooking are amazing, you don't need for anything. The rooms are spacious and clean. It's beautifully maintained and very comfortable. Its near the beach and the park, perfect for the little ones to run around. Also, lovely welcome package.
Barbara
We had an amazing time, the property was perfect for us. There was lots of space for everyone but still cozy and comfortable. We had an issue with the hot tub but it was quickly resolved. The kids and adults loved the games room and cinema, we just wish we had more time to enjoy it. As a family with ages ranging from 6 months to 97 years old it was perfect. Although there are stairs to the bedrooms and ground floor toilet my Grandma was able to navigate these without any problems. We will hopefully book again in the future.
Great property and lovely location
