Watersplash Cottage

9 Customer Reviews

• "This is a lovely little cottage with a good size outdoor space."

  It's nicely decorated with comfortable beds, good sized kitchen with all you need and in a good location. The lounge is very small more with comfy seating for 2 people so ok for a family but a bit snug for 2 couples. The 2 levels of stairs are steep and winding so no good if you're not fit! Apart from the 2 provisos mentioned tho, this was a lovely place to stay and we would again.

• "We really enjoyed our stay, the cottage was lovely and in a superb position."

  Lovely and peaceful but a short walk to the town and the beach. My only criticism was that as the steps down to the kitchen were quite slippy, our elderly dog was unable to manage them. I think it would be useful to mention this as other people may have the same issue. Other than this, beautiful stay, thank you.

• "We've visited several times before and absolutely love Watersplash - it's a perfect retreat with bags of character even when the weather lets us down, and the location is idyllic."

  But there were issues on this occasion. We'd complained before about the razor sharp edges on the drawer handles especially in the kitchen after slicing my finger on one last year, but no-one has done anything about it. The quality of washing up by previous occupants was poor - dirty saucepans (I had to rush out to buy scouring pads) and food stuck to cutlery and plates and there was an unpleasant smell in the kitchen which took days to clear. The bin bags had all bio-degraded so we had an issue putting out the rubbish. The garden furniture, which was broken and dangerous last year, has been removed but not replaced. So no chance of breakfast at the garden table. The decking was terribly slippery when it rained and the garden needs a tidy up. We love the cottage and feel very sad when standards start to slip. It's not at all cheap (especially as only 2 of us) and I stress that these are small issues but do need attention. We don't want to complain when we're on holiday - it sours something we've been looking forward to for so long but hope that polite feedback will now be acted on. If photos show garden furniture it should be available, even in March. On the plus side, cleaning was generally to a high standard - we met the cleaner and she was delightful - a credit to the company. The bedroom is super-comfortable and the heating (in a very cold wet week) was blissfully reliable. So, in spite of a few gripes, a great little place to stay.

• "A quirky little cottage, well located in a quiet road with very little passing traffic and away from the hustle and bustle but near enough for a short walk into the town and seafront - perfect location."

  Added bonus of a garden which backed onto the river with permit parking for the nearby car park too. Arranged over 3 floors, the stairs are a bit of a challenge! As the listing states they are quite narrow and winding but deep treads too so would be difficult for anybody suffering with knee / hip problems. That said we loved our stay and hope to return in the future.

• "The property was in a superb location and a massive bonus having the garden by the river which we used alot."

  The top bedroom was very hot and a shame we couldn't open the window fully on the street side to let a breeze in. The memory foam mattress took some getting used to but was fine for a week's stay. The only negative was the property stated there was a highchair so we deliberately didn't take ours. When we arrived we looked for it but couldn't find it. I messaged lyme Bay Holidays and someone said they would get back to me but they didn't so we had to improvise for the whole week which wasn't ideal.

• "The cottage was absolutely perfect, small yet perfectly formed."

  Having the garden space with the river running behind us was lovely and being located so close to the beach was a real luxury. Our only issue was with the cooking facilities. The cooker did not light consistently (the ignition switch sometimes worked sometimes didn't). I think a couple of additional items like a second frying pan and a few more saucepans would have made cooking for a family of 4 easier. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would have no hesitation in recommending Watersplash Cottage.

• "Lovely cute cottage very clean and well equipped with everything you need!"

  Great location - 5 min walk to the sea front -shops and Restaurants etc parking is easily accessible using a permit and a 5 min walk away. Lovely walks right on your doorstep and a great base for exploring the area. We had a lovely four day last minute break and would definitely return! If we had to add add any feedback it would be maybe a couple of fans in the bedrooms as it was quite warm and a larger sofa or extra seating in the living room it’s fine for two guests but not four. The garden is also an extra bonus!
