Ocean View Apartment

We've stayed before and it's a lovely apartment that's well equipped, spacious with great views.

2 Small improvements on the maintenance (which we experienced last year too!)... 1. The fan in the ensuite bathroom doesn't work 2. The plumbing makes a terrible clicking / clunking noise when you are in the main bedroom.... so once you realise you just need to ask that no-one showers etc. when you're in bed and make sure not to put the dishwasher on overnight.

There is a new bed in the master.

The matress is so heavy it is impossible to lift and tuck the sheets in. Also the fitted sheet did not fit and kept coming off. We had to request replacement linen. We think that an apartment of this standard should be provided with bed linnen that fits the bed. Not unreasonable. Overall we love the apartment and have been there three times now. Other issues were minor, such as under cupboard lights not working. We will return.

Great apartment - love the views, well equipped and clean.

Thanks for a great stay.

Beautiful apartment, we really felt at home there straight away as it is so well equipped.

The fridge being turned off and the carbon monoxide alarm expiring at 6am did not detract from this. We hope to return!

A lovely apartment, with all the home comforts needed , just a short walk from a great beach and the glorious walks of the south west coastal paths.

Excellent property and facilities.

Well equipped and good furnishings. We will be returning next year as we enjoyed it so much.

We love staying in the appartment and we are returning customers and have stayed a few times.

The appartment is in need of some minor TLC. This would not stop me visiting again as its very well equipped and has amazing views. Perfect location for coastal walks to Hope Cove and Bantham.

Great place which we’ve used before but few simple things that it would be useful to share with the owner which they may/may not be aware of which would really make a difference: Bunk beds - metal, so noisy and creaky that you can’t use them for two children as they just wake each other up with how noisy the beds are when you move or climb down the ladder.

Bit dangerous too compared to wood, son bashed his leg on metal frame. Drying rack - needs replacing as so wonky/bracket almost broken so you can’t hang much on it. Would be useful to have another one as nowhere to hang wetsuits/beach towels etc except over chairs on balcony. Would be great to have a shoe rack out in the corridor like other appartments do. Hooks on back of bathroom doors to hang towels would be handy. Thanks!

Our Second time at Ocean view.

Wonderful place and had a great time again. Just x3 small issues; 1; The front door handle is very loose 2; We had a problem with the TV in the Kitchen/Diner 3; The outside roof patio floor needs a good clean.

WE have stayed at the flat a number of times and it has a great location.

However the flat is somewhat tired and on this occasion we could not get into the key safe on arrival and had to get help (it needs replacing), then the boiler and heating broke which necessitated us having to stick around for the repair man (who to be fair was great and came on the day that we reported it). I'm not sure we will book that particular flat again, however we would use Sykes as they were responsive.

Fantastic apartment just a 5 - 7 minutes stroll to the beach.

Great location.

The best property we have stayed in nr Salcolmbe for 15 yrs

Second time staying here.

Great apartment and location

Excellent apartment and views Mattress on King size bed needs replacing very soon as saggy in many spots.

Cushions needed on plastic seat in kitchen we had to use Cushions from the bedrooms. Very noisy extractor fan in ensuite

Super apartment, very spacious, great views and location - perfect for a Thurlestone break.

The apartment was wonderful, even more spacious than it looked in the pictures and only a short walk from the sea.

It was very comfortable and clean with incredible views from every window. Excellent value for money, considering the space and the time of year we went (August). The property was very well managed by Coast and Country, they called to check everything was ok and I reported some minor issues with a patio door, plumbing and the microwave and they sent someone out within three hours to resolve them! It was a lovely apartment and would definitely return. Thank you!

The view from the apartment roof terrace was lovely.

Watching the sun set listening to the sound of the waves lapping on the beach was quite magical. The apartment was very comfortable and relaxing. We had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday.

A great size apartment, very spacious and has amazing views.

We had a great stay and would think about returning if they make some changes. As great as our stay was we did have a few issues which sadly did ruin the trip. Sky box didn't work properly, we got some channels but not others (not great when you want to watch Wimbledon!). The TV is old and outdated. The table in the picture on the balcony was missing. The microwave and toaster needs replacing as they barely work. We say it ruined the trip as when you are on holiday it should be easy and you shouldn't have to worry about these types of things like you would at home. We sent a more detailed list of other issues to Coast and Country who Sykes directed us too. If the above is sorted we would book again in a heart beat as the town and surrounding areas are stunning.

We had a lovely time, it’s our third time to these apartments and we hope to be back!

Had a fabulous time at Ocean view apartment.

Well equipped and comfortable. Carpet in main bedroom a welcome edition. Fabulous views from balcony.

The apartment was better than expected.

It was furnished to a high standard and very well equipped. The Bang and Olufsen system was a bonus and provided great sound. The kitchen was extremely well equipped which was brill as we cooked in throughout our stay due to Covid. The balcony provided a lovely outside space with great views down to the sea and across to Thurlstone golf course. We wanted somewhere fairly isolated due to Covid and this was perfect. We loved our stay and will return.

Main bed, made so much noise every time we moved, sky tv, couldn’t get lots of channels, no internet, no wi-fi,cleanliness very poor especially in shower, a beautiful apartment with beautiful views just needs certain issues addressing, paid good money quite disappointing really.

Apartment was lovely.

Small tip would be to list the address correctly as took ages to work out if we were at right place. It is actually written outside in numbers and ‘penthouse B’. No mention of ocean view apartment until the inner door! Also it says thurlestone beach house not thurleston beach apartments. Could of been a bit cleaner but overall ok WiFi/broadband wasn’t working which caused slight issues as I was also trying to do some work so had to go somewhere else to do it which wasn’t ideal Otherwise great location, lovely apartment and would use again

Lovely flat by the sea.

Enjoyed the local coastal walks. Got a last minute offer which was a good reduction in price.

Was a lovely appartment with ample of space and loveley view/ location.

Needs to be cleaned alot better and also touch up of paint required.. Windows were difficult to open and close - 1 was broken also one of the oven nobs was also broken but still worked. Very comfortable bed and powerful shower.

The apartment was very spacious, clean and well equipped.

Location was good, close to lovely beaches and coastal footpath. Balcony a great place to sit and enjoy the sea view.

The apartment in itself was superb, well equipped and in an excellent location, perfect for a relaxing break.

A couple of little things : noisy pipes within master bedroom after using the on-suite facilities, annoying at bedtime. Sash windows, when opening bottom part, the top slid down on several occasions and were difficult to push back up. Main Bathroom shower screen did not seal very well and tended to drift open when shower in use. Front main entrance door fooled us. On arrival, we found it pushed too but unlocked and assumed this was the norm. We made a couple of trips taking luggage and items to apartment, only to then find, it had locked whilst we had returned to the car. Unfortunately we had left the keys in the apartment door and was unable to re-enter the main building. Yourselves, were very good and quickly answered when we called, however another resident kindly opened the door for us whilst we were talking to your office. We subsequently discovered the door was often pushed too and did not automatically lock as it should do, unless pressure was applied. We wonder if maybe a notice could be put near or on the door? (We did make sure we had keys with us at all times, thereafter). We would like to say how much we enjoyed the stay in the apartment and would certainly be happy to recommend to others.

The apartment was very large and well appointed.

We did identify a possible problem with the fridge freezer towards the end of the holiday, which we reported to the number provided on the details( Coast & Country Cottages)

We have just spent a wonderful Christmas at Oceanview apartment and it far exceeded our expectations.

It is really spacious and well equipped and very comfortable indeed. The location was perfect as it was just a few minutes walk to the lovely beaches of South Milton and Thurlstone and the coast path. Thoroughly recommend !

Stunning location - fantastic sea views.

Better than expected - very spacious and with luxurious touches the kitchen and lounge were high spec and comfortable. Balcony outside seating area was a real bonus - big enough for 6 to sit comfortably in shelter. Thurlstone village is very pretty with a fantastic pub!

Excellent property! Our 3rd visit, first time with puppy, I'd have never known previously that dogs were welcome! Superb views, short walk to the beach, great location. Very well equipped kitchen, everything you need. We loved it & are highly likely to go again in the future ????

Excellent

Had a great time, everything was to hand that we needed. Showers were excellent Lovely area

Beautiful apartment, lovely setting, great views. Very well equipped.

Our second stay here and apart from not being able to get the TV in the dinning room to come on our stay was excellent. Oh yes some of the decking on the balcony needs fixing as not safe.

The request to strip the beds before leaving takes the edge off what is otherwise a top quality experience.

The apartment was fantastic however we found dog hairs and sand on the bedding on the the twin beds . Apart from that the apartment had everything you could want in a fantastic location.
