“32 Dart Marina is a lovely apartment with great views of the River Dart.”
It was spotlessly clean and had some lovely contemporary design touches, including well designed lounge and dining furniture, designer crockery and good quality cutlery. It was really good to see that the owners have a contemporary style that matched our taste which is quite unusual overall in other self catering properties we have stayed in.
However, there are some things that did not work as well - it looks like the owners are gadget oriented and even though we followed the laminated instructions in respect of the TV set up, we could not get any sound from the TV until the Coast and Country rep came to have a look at the complicated set up two days into our holiday. We also had some problems with the central heating and hot water. We had to contact the Coast & Country team a couple of times in this respect - as mentioned above, the team were very helpful and did resolve the issues after a further visit to the apartment. We were also surprised that there were no non-slip mats in either of the bathrooms which we feel are essential as it is so easy to slip and fall.
The beds in the smaller of the two bedrooms were extremely soft - not sure if this was the design of the bed or whether they need to be replaced, but they were not very comfortable.
Overall, once the gadget/central heating/hot water problems were resolved, it made the stay much better. However, because the beds were so uncomfortable, we would probably only stay in this apartment again if they were replaced.
Many thanks for taking the time to complete your review of 32 Dart Marina in Dartmouth.
We were delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your stay in this lovely apartment with its great views of the River Dart.
We were pleased that a member of our Dartmouth team was able to assist you during your stay and thank you for your feedback regarding the bed, it is a sprung divan base so slightly softer than normal.
Thank you, once again, for taking the time to leave your feedback. We do hope you choose to stay with us again.
