"Fantastic property, it literally had everything we needed for a young family (two under three)."
Great location with a lovely view of Salcombe. So spacious and beautiful decor.
Only slight moan was the mattress protectors were stained and the back bathroom was quite mouldy.
Otherwise the place was perfect and would love to visit again.
Many thanks for leaving your feedback, We are so pleased you loved the property. We can only apologise about the bits you have mentioned, we have passed your comments onto the cleaner who will address them.
We look forward to welcoming you back to Salcombe soon.

"Lovely property and very comfortable."
Great location and has everything you need.
Hallway and en-suite radiators didn’t work though and bedroom in particular was cold - draughty near the window.
We will however book again for next year.
Coast and Country offered a brilliant service.
Thank you for your feedback, we are so pleased you loved the property. We can only apologise the radiators were not working on your arrival, I believe they have now been blead and are working as normal. We are happy to hear you will be back next year and look forward to seeing you then. Property Owner

The owners have made those like us (parents!) lives so much easier with all the child/baby paraphernalia! The pictures are an accurate representation and the property is in a great location to the centre of town.
Many thanks for taking the time to leave you lovely feedback. We are thrilled you had such a great week. We do hope that we can welcome you back to Salcombe soon. Property Owner

"Note it is a very steep hill to walk to & from the town centre & the parking space is very limited with a white line you need to be with-in."
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your comments. Thank you for highlighting the steep hill and parking arrangements here at Prospects. Unfortunately, due to the nature of Salcombe a number of our properties are on a steep hill. Please be assured, we have requested that the red notes be updated to reflect this. We hope that despite these issues, you had a very enjoyable stay.

The accommodation was in a perfect position and very comfortable, we felt the rooms very damp and smelly lots of cobwebs and dirty in the corners like some one not been there for awhile, Salcombe great place but a nightmare to get into a restaurant or bar could even get a drink in a pub, the foor was mainly junk food no quality food, i would recommend going to salcombe unless self catering,

"Well equipped holiday home, esp for young children."
Gate at top of steep outside stairs needs a different lock as toddler was easily able to open it. Some areas of house havent been cleaned properly for some time.... Shower screen joints above bath full of black mould and filth/dust underneath the beds.

"Feared the worst when reading previous comments over cleanliness but no issues."
Very ell equipped apartment and very comfortable. might be worth mentioning the number of steps and parking is very tight. Worst thing was the TV. nowhere was it mentioned the lack of tv coverage which is an issue when you have a family.
Thank you for leaving us your comments. We were really pleased to read that the property was comfortable and presented beautifully for you stay.

"On arrival at the house we were disappointed by the level of cleanliness - bits of food still in the sink, on the highchair, in the fridge and on the sides of the kitchen."
There was also a lot of dust gathering under the bed - only spotted due to dropping an earring!
A really disappointing first impression especially given the current circumstances around cleanliness.
The dishwasher didn't clean properly and items had obviously been put back at the end of the previous stay which were not clean.
And the wifi connection was very poor.
However, with that being said, everything else was perfect for our stay.
It was very well equipped especially for our daughter with lots of books, toys, games as well as the cot & high chair which certainly saved us packing those items. Being all on one level was ideal for us too.
The terrace was perfect for enjoying the mid day sun while the little one slept and we had friends over for drinks and to enjoy the super views too.
The location was spot on, just a short walk from the supermarket and center of town but far enough to be away from any noise.
We would definitely consider going again, as long as it was clean!
Many thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are so pleased to hear that you had a good holiday and the location of the property suited your party. We were concerned to read that the property was not satisfactorily presented prior to your arrival.

"When we arrived at the property we found that the normal standards of cleanliness that we get and expect when we arrive were not met."
We also found staining on bed sheets and towels. However, this was quickly resolved when we reported it. We also found that the WiFi connection was very poor and the dishwasher didn’t clean the dishes properly and there were several items in the cupboards which were not clean. Otherwise, the property was very comfortable and very well equipped, especially for having two young children. The location was ideal for the centre of Salcombe also.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We can only apologise that you experienced the issues you did, but we are pleased we were able to resolve some quickly for you.

"This apartment is extremely well located and has everything you can think of to make your stay very enjoyable."
Very well stocked and with a lovely view over Salcombe. We had a lovely time, despite disappointing weather. We would say that although the accommodation can cater for six people we felt it would cater better for four because there is only parking for one small car.
There was just one problem and that was that the apartment above was a little noisy with people walking about. That wouldn't normally bother us but did mean we were woken up early every morning.

"Went away with my partner and our children really liked the hour and the balcony area."
felt it was an expensive property for the week but i think salcombe is expensive anyway. my only gripe is the back bedroom was damp there was water on the floor when we awoke and took a few days to notice it was coming from a humidifier on top of wardrobe this overflowed and leaked into the wardrobe and spilling on my clothes. so the box was moved into the bathroom otherwise a beautiful apartment and a lovely walk up the hill wouldn’t stay in this property again for the price it cost.
Thank you for your feedback, which has been passed on to the owner of Prospects. They have advised that specialists have inspected the property and concluded that there is no damp, but mild condensation. Despite the issues, we hope that you enjoyed Salcombe and all this area has to offer. Property Owner

"Really enjoyed our time in Salcombe, Happy to recommend both location and Coast & Country Cottages."
Would have liked to see easier and better waste management / recycling.
Outside lights up steps to house not working, did slip on steps as a result (it was wet and dark). No harm done, but next guest may not be so lucky.

"Prospects is a fantastic holiday let, great location, outstanding views and brilliantly equipped to make for a truly relaxing and easy holiday."
Especially with small children.
Unfortunately just lets itself down as desperately needs some TLC, broken bifold doors, broken gate post, decking needs treating, free-sat box with no satalite dish? Lots of dust, hairs and splashes in the corners, crevices, under and behind furniture, ready for a deep clean!
That said would definitely book again.
It is great to see you had a fantastic holiday and enjoyed your stay at Prospects. We have spoken with the housekeeper and the owners and are happy to say the property will be undergoing maintenance work over the winter months to ensure the property is up to it's usual high standard ready for 2020.

"This is a spacious, well equipped apartment in an excellent location."
The living area is superb - open plan lounge/ diner with everything you could possibly need. Amazing view from the terrace and we had excellent weather to enjoy it.
Only negative which did spoil the experience was the damp feel in the 2 back bedrooms. We stayed in an exceptionally hot week with high temperatures ( so not wet or damp outside) but there was a real damp feel on the bedding and clothes hanging in the wardrobes. It’s a real shame as it would stop us booking Prospects again and is something that needs to be addressed. ( Happy to discuss if needed)
Thank you so much for taking the time to give us feedback about your stay at Prospects, and we are so pleased that you enjoyed your holiday in Salcombe.
Following your comments about the back bedrooms, the Owner will be working with our Property Services Team to carry out remedial works over the Winter period.
We hope that we will be able to welcome you back to the area again soon. Property Owner

"This is a lovely apartment that is larger than we expected."
It is up a small hill but it is difficult to find property without a hill in Salcombe. The wooden verhanda is in need of some attention but the garden furniture is lovely. The back bedroom is suffering with a small amount of damp. There is another apartment above you and some noise can be heard. It is ideally placed to explore Salcombe but anyone with mobility issues may struggle with the hill. The quality of the furniture and bedding is excellent and the kitchen is very well equipped. Children have been considered with lots of additional cutlery etc. However, although the apartment is dog friendly there are no spare dog bowls so you need to remember to take yours. There is freesat provided but unfortunately there are no instructions on how to use it!
We are pleased that you enjoyed your recent holiday with us. Thank you for your all the positive comments, they mean a lot. Also thank you for bringing the veranda etc to our attention. All comments help us to improve our standards and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

We were delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your recent stay at Prospects. We are sorry to hear you ended up parking your second car on a grass verge, as there is only parking for one car at the property. Located only a 5/8 minute walk away from the property are both Shadycombe (winter months) and Gould Road (summer months) car parks, here you can park for the week, subject to a daily charge.
