"Been visiting Salcombe for 30+ years."
Second visit to this apartment, first was 2 years ago. Good location for Salcombe, could park up, and walk/ferry everywhere for the week. Lovely views of Batsons Creek and apartment well fitted out.
Some small housekeeping issues. Had to clean the lower oven before use as it was very greasy, bathroom radiators need a wipe over and a few areas had been missed with the hoover and duster. Could do with a couple of new pillows in the main bedroom, though none of these things would stop me booking again.

"We loved our stay in this bright, spacious apartment in a quiet location, close to the centre of Salcombe but not too close to the hustle and bustle at night."
The super king bed was very comfortable and although there were only the two of us we enjoyed having two bathrooms and a spare bedroom. The open views towards Batson Creek are delightful. We’d love to stay here again. Two tiny maintenance items we’d like to mention- the freezer needs defrosting and we felt the main bedroom would benefit from blackout curtains.

"Overall apartment very well equipped and comfortable."
Nice touches with lighting, bed comfortable and modern bathrooms. Sofa not very comfortable- more of an issue as due to weather during our stay meant we spent more time indoors.
Picking up keys from office ok for us but keysafe preferable after long drive. Walk back uphill could be a challenge for some.
Noise from flat above was persistent so did impact on our enjoyment.
TV is relatively new but had to reset programmes several times.
Definitely book with Coast & Country Cottages again but probably not the apartment.
Thank you for your feedback. It is a shame to note differences between your online review and comments left in the property’s guest book. The owner uses the services of Coast & Country for key purposes because the keys to the property (and Combehaven as a whole) are security-enhanced for residents’ safety and expensive to replace. Coast & Country’s offices are a two minute drive or five minute walk away so any inconvenience is in the owner’s opinion minimal. The owner has known the upstairs neighbour for over seven years and has stayed at the property throughout all busy periods of the year without issue or complaint including this New Year. The owner acknowledges that peoples’ experiences may differ but this is the first time in seven years renting the property that anyone has raised this point. The smart TV is less than 12 months old and again no issues have been previously reported in relation to it, the owner followed you into the property after your booking and it was working fine except for the major inconvenience caused by you in respect of the Netflix set up. You chose to ignore the dedicated 15 Combehaven profile and instead added your own password-protected account which you omitted to clear on leaving. Accordingly, Netflix was blocked on the TV requiring chasing emails/calls to you before the issue was eventually resolved. In the circumstances, the owner is not disappointed with regard to the final comment in your review and the property.

"The flat could do with a TV from the 21st century!"
Also, it would be helpful to have some more detailed and explicit instructions in how to access the flat from the car park as it took some figuring out the first time. It also seemed to take a very long time for the hot water to actually become hot when taking a shower or washing up etc. I'm not sure why but this must waste an awful lot of water as well as energy. If there is a knack to overcoming this, then that would be worth explaining.
Apart from that we liked the flat, it's location is great and the layout works.
Thank you for your comments. We are sorry that the digital TV with Freeview was not to your satisfaction. The TV has, however, been replaced as part of the recent property re-decoration allowing access to Freeview and certain digital services such as Netflix/iPlayer. As there is only one door from the basement car park with an intercom, we are afraid that we struggle to understand the access issue. The water and central heating can both be adjusted via the boiler control to suit personal preference albeit they are normally set to recommended seasonal temperatures in the interests of optimum performance and safety.

Problems with the sky television, top oven not fully opening , outside furniture 1chair broken , shower continually dripped , winter duvets in a mild September, towel rails on continually causing flat to get very hot perhaps with the 40% increase on next years prices improvements could be made ☹️

"Have stayed at 15 Combehaven on several occasions and this year the cleaning, despite being checked was not up to scratch, filthy under the beds."
Found dirty underwear last year and this year under the beds!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. We were concerned to read that the cleanliness of the property upon your arrival both on this occasion and your previous were unsatisfactory. We have passed these comments onto the housekeeping team who would like to apologise. Please be assured that this is not the standard we pride ourselves upon. We would like to reiterate that we work hard with our cleaners to ensure that each and every one of our holiday properties are cleaned thoroughly and presented to the highest standard. we would like to apologise again and hope that your visit to Salcombe was still enjoyable and very much look forward to welcoming you back soon.

The apartment was lovely but the cleanliness was disappointing. Grubby bathroom floors, old toilet rolls still on the toilet roll holder, dirty dishcloth left hanging on the cupboard door, area around the bin was filthy!!
Overall we were happy and have rebooked for next year.

"The apartment was lovely."
Very comfortable and lots of space. We really enjoyed the views over the estuary. Would definitely like to return.
The property however needs a new dustbin as the top was not opening properly which I am surprised wasn’t picked up. The kitchen cupboards didn’t look overly clean which I think should have been a focus given the health situation we are in.
