“Spacious holiday apartment in a beautiful location.”

So close to the beach you can hear the waves from the window. Only negative was the drop off point is on a step slope and with a big car the turning at the bottom can be treacherous with the sand making it slippery. But this wouldn’t stop me from coming again.

“Brilliant location with views that exceeded our expectations.”

Clean throughout with what looked like fairly new carpets. Each bedroom with enough storage and no 'silly' trinkets and vases hanging around! Beds very comfortable and the flat was lovely and warm considering we were there in February. Well equipped kitchen and lovely settees to relax on whilst the other cooked and chatted! The flat exceeded our expectations we would definitely recommend it to others.

“We stayed here over the Christmas Period and we had the most wonderful and relaxing time.”

It is the most wonderful location literally on the sea front. The property is clean and easy to access. It is upside down living, so bedrooms and bathroom downstairs and kitchen, diner and living area upstairs. As we were going over the Christmas period, we had asked if the owner was able to set up the property for Christmas, although they would have, they were away for the holidays, but they were happy for us to bring our own and set up, which we did. The only thing I would say is that the sofa's need replacing, we were sinking into them and the mattresses in the twin bedroom were very soft, again sinking in. Otherwise it is a wonderful place and guys, book here.

- Mrs Chouhan, December 2019

Thank you for providing feedback on your stay at 4 Armada House, feedback is important for us and the customer experience. Following your feedback, we have replaced the mattresses in the twin room, and both sofas have been refurbished. We really hope to see you back soon! Sykes owner relations

“I think the bed mattresses need replacing as to soft.”

Also the sofas are saggy in the middle so not comfortable. And I feel the living area would be a squeeze for 6 people. However the village and location was excellent.

- Mrs Platkiw, September 2019

Thank you for your feedback, this is important to us to improve our customers experience. I am delighted to say that we have now replaced the mattress for the double bed. We hope to see you again in the near future. Sykes owner relations

“Apartment is excellent, very clean, lovely comfortable beds.”

Wifi and all other facilities met expectations. Maybe a small freezer for ice cream etc would be nice. Ice box in fridge rather iced over could not get much in. The only down side was noise and loud voices from flat below until 4am one morning. We did complain to the Hope and Anchor who use it for staff. They apologised and it didn't happen again. Same night horrendous banging and noise from No 3 around midnight till early hours. We found everything excellent bar the sound proofing from adjacent appts. Due to this we will not be returning

“4, Armada House is set in an idyllic location benefitting from sea views over the harbour beach in one direction and out toward Thurlestone and Burgh Island from the other aspect.”

It is a short stroll to the shop and surrounded by plenty of options for meals during your stay. It is not far on the coastal path to South Milton where the beach is also dog friendly during the summer. The highland cattle grazing in the fields alongside the beach and car park are a great photo opportunity as well as the stunning views. Hope Cove sunsets are second to none. We have been regular visitors for 15 years now and this holiday property offers visitors spacious, dog friendly accommodation in a prime position in the centre of the village. We had an amazing time making more happy memories.

“Excellent property.”

Close to the beach and very well laid out.

“No parking at the property meant that we had to pay £4 per day to park in the local pay and display car park.”

Access to the property was on a steep hill on a narrow road, this meant that unloading and loading was very tricky. The furnishings were a bit cheap looking and basic, the two small two seater sofas were uncomfortable and the shower was a mixer coming off the taps in the bath that you hold in your hand. The extractor fan over the hob was completely ineffective, unlike the smoke alarm that went off if you even thought about making toast. The dishwasher was noisy enough to drown out the volume on the TV and was only outdone in terms of noise level by the noisy inefficient extractor fan.

I am very sorry and disappointed to read your feedback both in respect of your holiday accommodation and brief interaction with a member of our team. As I am sure you will appreciate we work hard with our owners to ensure all holiday properties are equipped and presented to meet the expectations of holiday guests - as a consequence of your feedback we will undertake a review of the accommodation and make recommendations to the owner as appropriate. Although this apartment is advertised as not including a parking space I appreciate that the daily cost came as a surprise to you. We will therefore update our description to ensure future guests are fully aware of the local charges. If you would like to discuss any of these matters further please do not hesitate to contact me directly at any time. Sykes owner relations

“Nice tidy and clean house, well equipped, fantastic views, draw backs are the only shower in the property is a hand held one over the bath which was a pain and you do get a fair bit of noise from the pub and bar down the road.”

- JOANNE,
“Great location, value for money for time of yr.”

Bathroom definitely needed decoration, but we were warned about it when making the booking.

Thank you for your review of 4 Armada House in Hope Cove. We were pleased to hear that you felt this property is in a great location, offering value for money. Your feedback in respect of the general appearance of the property is much appreciated. The owner is looking to redecorate the accommodation throughout, in addition, there are also plans to replace all flooring and the bathroom. We do hope you had an enjoyable stay exploring this beautiful village and all that the surrounding area has to offer. We look forward to welcoming you back to Hope Cove very soon.
Update April 2017: The owners would like to advise that the planned redecoration is now complete. The hard flooring and bedroom carpets on the ground floor have all been replaced, together with all the bathroom fittings. Sykes owner relations
J

“Apartment is very comfortable.”

Only issues are as follows: 1. There needs to be a curtain across the front door so that people cannot see in when walking down the path, this applies to all the apartments 2. The shower is excellent but needs a wall fitting for the head, as a hand held water literally goes everywhere. 3. Its biggest fault, is the seating upstairs. The sofas are extremely uncomfortable as is the armchair. They are dirty and have hard metal arms. After a day on the beach there is nowhere comfortable to sit and have a cup of tea. For this reason alone we would not rent this property again.

- J,

Many thanks for taking the time to leave your review in respect of 4 Armada House in Hope Cove. We were grateful for your feedback which was forwarded to the owners. Update April 2017: The owners would like to advise that the planned redecoration is now complete. The hard flooring and bedroom carpets on the ground floor have all been replaced, together with all the bathroom fittings. The bathroom has been refurbished - the shower being replaced with a thermostatically controlled rain head shower. There is also a hand held shower option. In addition, the property now has two fully upholstered sofas together with two cocktail chairs. We do hope that following the various improvements the owners have undertaken, you would consider returning to 4 Armada House in the future. Sykes owner relations

“The property was fine in most areas but we were very disappointed by the lack of towels, we know this was in the small print but we did not see this until too late and had to borrow towels from the local pub!”

(or not wash for the weekend) To not provide bath towels gives a real low budget feel to the property. We also felt that for the size of property the 'comfortable' seating was really inadequate - awkward Ikea double armchairs with wooden arms and hard cushions that were uncomfortable and slid off. We would have expected to see a proper sofa or two. Not sure what a family of 6 would do for sitting in front of the television in there! On the plus side we appreciated being able to bring the dogs, thank you.

- Mrs S Hunter,

Update April 2017: In addition to the refurbishments mentioned in the previous review; the property now has two fully upholstered sofas together with two cocktail chairs. Sykes owner relations

Just one thing - on the Saturday night we were kept awake by inconsiderate people living below who played music into the early hours.

About the location

HOPE COVE

Salcombe 4.6 miles; Kingsbridge 5.1 miles

The picturesque and unspoiled village of Hope Cove lies in the sheltered curve of Bigbury Bay on Devon’s south coast. A choice destination for families, the two beaches offering soft sand and rock pools for sandcastle building and fishing for small crabs. The town remains a fishing village where crabs and lobsters are still landed, however it was once used by smugglers. Many ships have perished around the coast and the wrecks that lie beneath the waves make it a popular spot for divers. Above the beach there are a number of pubs and restaurants. The coastal footpath can be joined from here and leads towards Bigbury-on-sea in one direction and the coastal resort of Salcombe in the other.

Region Information

All bed linen and towels are supplied. You will need to bring your own tea towels.

Parking is available in the nearby village car park (approximately 50 metres away) at an additional cost.

Up to two well-behaved dogs permitted (breed and size dependent).
