  • "Very classy and very well equipped ."

    Hairdryer, welcome basket of wine, coffee etc and fresh bottles of milk, plenty of towels, bottles of shower and shampoo gels.Every little necessity has been thought of and included.The accommodation is arranged on 3 floors, the parking being by the front door on the middle floor.Fully equipped main kitchen and the same in second downstairs kitchen with another fridge freezer.The downstairs is a fully self contained flat. Theres a pretty garden and a hot tub we sadly did not have the weather to try. Theres a large tesco on the way into Ilfracombe not far from the house by car.No walkable convenience store due to the VERY steep hill it is on. Parking on a platform drive right outside the house in a short cul de sac but only for a small car, turning is very tight.We managed it with a honda civic but only just, with much manoevering. Not for the timid driver. Its a new letting and everything is sparklingly new and classy decor. BUT the only downside is there is one large bathroom, and 1 ensuite shower room upstairs but only 1 toilet.The downstairs double has a shower and toilet to itself. 3 double occupant bedrooms upstairs have to share one toilet.That would be a problem with 6 people using one upstairs toilet and no toilet on the middle floor where the kitchen/diner,lounge and front door is So with a full house of 8 people I could see it being a problem. It IS mentioned in the details but we did not notice that and wasnt what we expected as an elderly group of 4 who normally expect ensuite to have a toilet. There is a tiered garden with plenty of outside seating with protection covers.We had poor weather so didnt get to see or use them.The garden and hot tub have to be accessed via the front door and a steep side passage or through the downstairs bedroom. As a party of 4 elderly friends we thouroughly enjoyed our stay.

    Thank you for your feedback, I am so glad you enjoyed your stay at Combe View! In regards to the toilet I will update the Sykes description to make it a lot more clear that the upstairs en suite is just a shower room with no WC. Also we will look in to doing a floor plan as part of the pictures so people can see the layout of the house and hot tub access. Thank you again. Property Owner
