“Facilities in the house were fantastic very clean and well decorated didn't want to leave”
“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Spindrift, even though the weather broke just as we arrived!”

The house was excellent and the main room even bigger in real life than it appeared in the photos (not something we experience very often, if ever!). We were a party of six (3 generations with 2 in each bracket!) and there was something for all of us. The instructions were good. The kitchen was very well equipped and the table tennis table was fun for all of us. The children were ecstatic to find an xbox as they do not have one at home. We were glad this was in a separate room! Their use was rationed but they did love it, particularly our 7 year old grandson! The wifi worked well even when we were using various devices. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all good, particularly the master suite. The children loved the novelty of the bunks so my daughter and son in law had a dressing room as well as a bedroom. This was helpful as there was restricted room for them to store there clothes in one bedroom. The garden was a good size for the children who much enjoyed playing safely in it. We much appreciated being able to wash off sand from our beach activities with an outside tap. Pretty Local left the food we ordered ready for our arrival, with the frozen items in the fridge. We have recommended them to various friends who holiday in that area frequently. I could go on but suffice it to say it was everything we wanted and more.

Many thanks for your wonderful review of your recent stay at Spindrift in Thurlestone, we’re so happy to hear that you had a brilliant stay with us and that this property suited your multi-generational family. It’s always great to hear that added touches like table tennis tables and X-Boxes are appreciated by our guests. Moreover, that Spindrift had everything you wanted and more!

“Spindrift is stunning in every way.”

We had a week of lovely walks, home cooked food and stayed in a beautifully loved house. Thank you to the owners and we looked after it as our own. Your attention to detail is perfect: from The White Company bed lined through to all the utensils we could ever need. The table tennis gave hours of amusement as did the films, games and Xbox. We truly had a much needed break as a mom with her children and grandchildren. A beautiful house in a stunning village.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback in respect of your recent stay at Spindrift in Thurlestone. It sounds like you had a wonderful time with your family in this beautiful house. We do hope to welcome you back very soon! Sykes owner relations

“Absolutely first class accommodation.”

This cottage had absolutely everything. Not just well equipped in terms of what's in the cottage but the quality of everything is to the highest standard. The cottage was spotless throughout and the main areas really spacious with a great flat screen and comfortable seating. The small playroom was perfect for our 5 year old, bean bags, X box .. perfect for a rainy evening should the weather take a turn for the worst. The kitchen is bright and airy, with everything you could want and again quality throughout. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a kind review of your stay at Spindrift in Thurlestone. We were pleased to hear that the accommodation suited your party so well and that you enjoyed your holiday in this first class property.
We look forward to welcoming you back to the beautiful South Hams in the very near future. Sykes owner relations

“We thought that Sprindrift was an exceptional property and you were not wanting for anything.”

A few minor issues which was filled in by myself at the property for Coast and Country questionnaire and posted was the ensuite bathroom did not have a toilet roll holder plus the shower did not have the facility to put any toiletries. This was also a problem in the other bathroom even though around the basin it had an awful lot space. It meant, you had to go backwards and forwards to the twin and double bedroom to fetch the required items. The house could have been clean better some items needed attention, eg hairs, considerable dust under TV and the cooker racks once turned were dark brown underneath. The garden even though it was lovely had not had the lawns cut for a long time and with having a dog was rather a nuisance. Our biggest concern was that by the side of the garage their must have been 6/8 black bin bags which had not been taken away and did not look at all inviting to the property. We did try and put our rubbish in the bin out but was told that our rubbish would not be collected as we were in a Holiday Rental. To me this concern lies with the Coast and Country Holiday company.

Many thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback in respect of Spindrift in Thurlestone. We were pleased to read that you found Spindrift to be an exceptional property where you were not wanting for anything. Having said this, we were obviously disappointed to read details of the various issues raised in your review. As you will appreciate, we work very hard with all our owners and their housekeepers to ensure holiday properties are satisfactorily presented and cleaned, both inside and out, for the arrival of guests. We have, therefore, passed on your feedback to the owners for their attention. Please accept our apologies that this popular house fell below its usual high standard on this occasion. The owners have also confirmed that as a result of your comments, they will also consider further provision of bathroom storage. As far as the uncollected rubbish was concerned, this was due to a problem with the council who decided to change lorries and said they could not approach the property due to overhanging branches from a tree further down the road. We understand that the caretaker did call in and collect some of the bags during your stay. We can only apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. Thank you again, for your review. We do hope you choose to stay with us again. Sykes owner relations
