  • "On arrival, no bath towels, no info folder."

    Contacted owner on arrival who couldn't understand where info folder was and said would contact laundry service about towels. Laundry failed to supply bath towels but an owner representative supplied some on Monday. Upstairs good deco, bed comfortable & good shower. Downstairs tired, needed redecoration. Kitchen missing baking trays, casserole dishes, ladels, but good appliances. Under sink looked dirty. Listed as sleeps 5, Downstairs too cramped for 5. Courtyard looked like it hadn't been weeded for quite sometime. Some recycling containers seemed to be missing.

  • "We had a lovely holiday at Le Grand Bleu."

    It was an ideal cottage to take dogs to, with a fully enclosed courtyard and local walks. Great location with good access to Bigbury, Salcombe, Hope Cove, etc. There were summer-weight duvets stored under the beds. Free parking at local village hall.

    Dear Ms Thorn-Lees, Thank you for your review and I’m so pleased that the enclosed courtyard was a fab little spot for your dogs. And very happy you enjoyed the summer duvets, we love to be able to offer guests the options and these duvets are body temperature controlled for the summers as well. Hope to see you all next year. Best wishes from Le Grand Bleu Property Owner
