“Excellent home, host was very nice when spoken to. We enjoyed our stay and may come back”
+The space as well as the availability of items that we did not need to buy
−We could have had better weather, but the house made up for that

“The view alone would bring me back but not at that price for the outdated facilities”
+The location of the house is everything,there is no better view from the garden,the sunset is breathtaking,the size of the house is also great.
−It’s very dated,stains on carpets and the kitchen sides and table,there’s a smell of damp inside the kitchen cupboards,the beds in the outdoor facilities both have broken slats underneath,the sofas in the living room are very uncomfortable and in need of replacing,the cleaner had left a note that the glass in the oven door may fall off and a few lightbulbs had gone and could we replace them while we were there then take the bulbs home with you ! And only 2 deckchairs ! The owner did offer to have some delivered while we were there but we had took camping chairs,but a property like that should have outdoor furniture we spent all our time outside…oh and the BBQ was filthy so we didn’t use it.

“It was a great stay, but events on departure date left us feeling a bit disappointed.”
+Location was perfect
−The sofas in the living room were very very uncomfortable, and well past their best. I was disappointed and shocked to be told that the house was left in a shocking state for the cleaners or the “team of cleaners”. We left the house reasonably tidy, beds stripped, bins emptied, refuse all sorted as per instructions. We did not expect to clean the house on departure as there was a considerable cleaning fee paid upfront.

“Beautiful location and views; tired property in need of some refresh”
+Not provided
−There was no outdoor table and chairs, which we expected for such a property. The few deckchairs provided were old and 2 failed during our stay. The interior is tired and in need of refresh.

“we would love to stay here again”
+Charming old fashioned family house with lots of space and amazing views, and very close to the beach. The house is great for a busy family and is very welcoming. Very useful, easy to sweep, large garden porch for all the beach and outdoor gear. There is short steep overgrown scramble path down the hillside to the beach, or a slightly longer easier walk through the National Trust car park.

“Exceptional”
+What a fabulous place! Can’t recommend it highly enough. The house is beautiful, in a fantastic location overlooking the beach. Everything was clean and tidy on arrival, and plenty of info was provided on how things worked in the house, tide times, places worth visiting, etc. We had a huge storm on our first night, which caused a problem with the electrics and caused the main consumer unit to trip repeatedly. As soon as Mr Harris read my messages about it the following evening, he phoned the house to speak to me about it and an electrician was on site to fix the problem first thing the next morning. Top service! Other positives: great Internet connection, fast and stable. The beach is an easy walk away, and there are a couple of dog-friendly pubs within walking distance that do decent food. The fridge is nice and big, the house has all mod cons and is easy to heat if the weather is a tad on the chilly side.
−There was nothing I didn’t like about the house, but there were a couple of tiny things that other visitors might like to be aware of. Firstly, the ‘road’ to the house is a gravel track. Not a problem for us, but if you have a low-slung sports car you might want to just pay for parking in the beach car park and walk up. Some of the potholes are a bit deep. Secondly, the TV has limited channels and it glitches if there’s a hint of weather. Bring an iPad with Sky Go on it if you can’t live without football or whatever. :) Thirdly, the key safe is very low on a wall. I have terrible eyesight and I couldn’t get low enough to see the numbers on it! I had to get my son to sort out the code for me. And finally - a previous guest had stuffed the freezer full of things that they didn’t take with them. Not a problem for us because we didn’t bring anything frozen, but it might be a bit of a pain if you came expecting lots of room in the freezer. I suspect this is a temporary problem though. :D These are just minor niggles though, there’s really nothing to dislike about this place.
