The Property was of a lovely setting But some things need to be changed
(Bed) Was was much to hard and lumps found in the Mattress right hand side
Shower Cubical very slippery ether a mat or non slip pads need to be applied also needs a Hand rail to be fitted as people of age dont feel secure without holding to steading them
The living quarters mainly the lounge/dinning room smell of damp Possibly coming from the main large Rug in the cenre of the Room
Thank you for your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the property's lovely setting. We're sorry that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations and appreciate you taking the time to highlight these points. Regarding the smell you mentioned in the lounge/dining room, we would like to reassure future guests that the chalet has never had any damp issues and there is no damp present in the property. As this concern has not been raised by previous guests, it is possible that the smell may have been caused by the rug having recently been cleaned. Nevertheless, we take all feedback seriously and will thoroughly investigate the matter to ensure the chalet remains fresh, comfortable and enjoyable for all our guests. We are arranging for a shower mat to be provided to improve comfort and safety in the shower area, and we will also be reviewing your comments regarding the mattress although recently a deep mattress topper was added for additional comfort. Thank you again for your comments and for staying with us.

"Stayed at Driftwood with our dog in June and thankfully because of its location close to a line of trees gave us some respite from the heatwave."
The chalet was beautifully clean and comfortable and very well equipped. Perfectly located for Dartmouth and surrounding countryside and South Devon's beautiful beaches. The welcome pack was a nice touch, especially the generous supply of biscuits.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're delighted to hear that you had such an enjoyable stay at Driftwood. The chalet's peaceful setting, nestled close to the trees, certainly makes it a wonderful place to relax and enjoy some shade on warmer days. It's great to know you found the chalet beautifully clean, comfortable and well equipped, and that you enjoyed exploring Dartmouth, the surrounding countryside and South Devon's stunning beaches. We're also pleased that the welcome pack was appreciated – we like to add a few thoughtful touches to help our guests feel at home from the moment they arrive. We would be delighted to welcome you and your four-legged friend back to Driftwood again in the future.

"We had a very enjoyable stay in Driftwood."
The property was very well-equipped and comfortable. Unfortunately the TV failed to work towards the beginning of our stay (oh dear this was during the World Cup) but the next day the property was fitted quickly and efficiently with a new TV. No hassle, in time for the England game. Super walk in shower and pleasant outlook.
Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased to hear that you had an enjoyable stay at Driftwood and found the chalet comfortable, well-equipped and enjoyed the pleasant outlook and walk-in shower.
We were sorry that the TV decided to stop working during your stay – and especially during the World Cup! However, we're delighted that we were able to resolve the issue quickly by installing a new TV the very next day, just in time for the England game. We always strive to respond promptly to any unexpected issues so that our guests can continue to relax and enjoy their holiday with as little disruption as possible.
Thank you again for your kind comments, and we would be delighted to welcome you back to Driftwood for another stay in beautiful South Devon.

"Excellent south facing aspect."
Comfortable overall, good kitchen and bathroom facilities. Too many cushions everywhere: sofas and bed. Excessive. Bed a bit hard and lumpy. Fridge a bit small, even for my limited requirements.
Overall, enjoyed my stay.
Thank you for your review and for highlighting the chalet’s sunny south-facing aspect, as well as the kitchen and bathroom facilities. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay overall. Guest comfort is very important to us, and while we have historically received excellent feedback regarding comfort and our beds, we will add deep mattress toppers during our next changeover clean. We appreciate that furnishings such as cushions are a matter of personal taste; many guests enjoy the cosy and welcoming feel they create, although they can easily be moved aside if preferred. With regard to the fridge, Driftwood is equipped with a standard under-counter fridge with freezer compartment, which is typical for a holiday chalet of this size and is generally well suited to accommodating the needs of up to four guests for short holidays. We are grateful for all feedback and continually look for ways to enhance the experience for future visitors.

"Lovely chalet with a surprising amount of room inside."
Well thought out space wise with comfortable furniture. A lot of facilities. Could do with a pair of scissors apart from the set in the first aid kit but, apart from that, very well equipped.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are delighted that you found the chalet surprisingly spacious, comfortable and well equipped, and that you appreciated the range of facilities provided.
Thank you also for mentioning the scissors. We would normally expect a pair to be available in the kitchen, so it is possible they had inadvertently gone missing prior to your arrival. We have since checked the chalet and will be adding an additional pair to ensure guests always have one readily to hand. We are grateful for your feedback, which helps us maintain the high standards that our guests have come to expect, and we are pleased that, aside from the scissors, you enjoyed your stay.

"Driftwood is a lovely little getaway, charming in decor and very clean."
The kitchen had everything we needed.
It’s within easy reach of 2 supermarkets and not far from Dartmouth itself.
Because we booked early Autumn, we used the heating and it was cosy and warm.
We would definitely consider going back.

"Driftwood was very clean and well maintained."
Towels, tea towels, toilet paper and bed linen were provided - as were coffee pods. There were clear instructions on how to use the heating and hot water system and the coffee machine. We were kept up to date when an electrical outage was due and for how long. I’m sure if we had brought the dog he would have enjoyed the area Driftwood was in. Very pleased with Driftwood accommodation.
We are delighted you were very pleased with your experience at Driftwood. It's good to know our instructions made sense and the welcome pack was useful. Thank you kindly for leaving the positive review, we really appreciate it.

"We had a really delightful stay at Driftwood!"
!!
We arrived to a newly-renovated chalet situated on the edge of the tranquil Norton Holiday Park just outside Dartmouth. All facilities within the chalet itself were spotless and in excellent working condition. We found that significant attention had been given to detail and were very grateful for the cleanliness of the accommodation. We further appreciated the Welcome Package you kindly put together for us (incl. coffee pods, tea and biscuits)! Overall, we were blessed with good weather and were therefore outdoors every day to take in the truly breathtaking surrounding area… what an amazing overall experience! We were very happy here and will consider returning next year
We are absolutely delighted you enjoyed your stay at Driftwood. It makes all the time and effort we put into renovating it worth while. We love staying there ourselves and we like sharing the chalet with other people like yourselves. Thank you so much for taking time to write the lovely review. We really appreciate it - it's good to know your experience was very positive. Many thanks again.
