  • "The downstairs layout was open plan and minimalist."

    Upstairs the front bedroom was spacious with lovely views over the surrounding area. The bed was uncomfortable as it had a lip round the outside. Second bedroom was tiny. I couldn't open the door fully as it caught on the bed. Lovely shower room. However the shower pressure was poor and difficult to shower thoroughly. Molly was very quick to sort a broken shower door handle when I reported it.I would expect a property with 3 bedrooms to have 2 bathrooms. Maybe another one installed downstairs? The raised bedroom off the living room was small with steep steps, again with the uncomfortable lip. Lovely balcony in the living room. Nice to sit and chill there. Outside decking space good. The yard by the back door uneven surface and tired looking. Loved the easy access to the beach. Recycling information needs updating. Why provide 3 recycling bins in the pantry when outside there was only a general waste container? That was so big we couldn't manoeuvre it. Access sandy lane outside the property full of deep holes. Just beware. Slippery to manoeuvre on and off the drive when wet. Very quiet area. Enjoyed watching the rabbits. Easy access to footpaths. Cafe close by.

  • "Had great stay here with my 2 dogs and son."

    Has everything you need and more. So close to the beach too. Will hopefully come back with daughter too, next time. Would definitely stay again.

  • "Nice old property renovated to a high standard."

    Very comfortable, clean, well equipped. Good location. Our dogs settled Well too. Only slight criticism, people must be able to walk up steps, in the garden and the stairs in the house are steep. Overall a good holiday property, which we would book again.

  • "The property was very comfortable!"

    We had a lovely break away! The only problem was we could only empty the rubbish into the recycling wheelie bin as it was the only one there. We couldn't find any of the other wheelie bins, we left a note apologising to the cleaners.

  • "Outside needs a but of TLC but inside was clean and well equipped."

    Bedroom 1 was a good size with lots of storage, bedroom 2 was very tight with only hanging space for clothes, most had to be left in a suitcase on the floor. Bedroom 3 is also tight and the bed is very low down (floor) probably due to the low ceiling.Our friends had Bedroom one and my husband and I had separate bedrooms due to the size, floor space and clothes storage. However, like said, downstairs was lovely. Closeness to the beach was perfect for walking the dogs

  • "The door in one of the bedrooms does not open properly because of the way the bed is situated."

    No storage in one of the bedrooms for clothes. Coving in main bedroom falling off ceiling. Light switches behind doors in certain rooms. Water leak coming from the bathroom when the shower is used. It drips downstairs on to the windowsill next to the back door. Windows outside covered in cobwebs. Bins were full of rubbish when we arrived on the Saturday so we’re unable to use until they got emptied on the Thursday We had to expose of our rubbish in public bins until then. Shower was useless it had no pressure so to ages to was shampoo out of your hair. No mention about the main staircase being very steep. We had our mum and dad with us who are both in their 70s and really struggled with the stairs.

  • "Great location."

    Enjoyed a 3 nights stay with 2 dogs, out side area totaly safe for dogs. The hob is not easy to control and not helped by the overhead light on the extractor fan not working. The genaral waste bin was full.

  • "Two minor points to tell the owner Downstairs toilet lock needs replacing - had someone locked in - rescued with a screwdriver passed through the window ."

    On arrival all refuge bins outside where full .Bin men came into the Dell on Thursday morning but our bins were not emptied. Turns out they have to be wheeled to the end of the track.This information was not given to us in our information pack.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. In response to this we have resolved the issue with the lock and can only apologise. We have also updated the welcome pack to include the information about bin collections. Property Owner

  • "When we arrived to the property, the black bin was nearly full of rubbish, as the holiday progressed the bin ended up overflowing with our rubbish and my husband did have to squash it down."

    I noted in the clear folder in the lounge area, it stated that the bin day was Wednesday but did not state who's responsibility it was to get the bin emptied, therefor the bin was not emptied. Surely this needs highlighting. The amount paid for the property surely the owner should be putting the bins out, as this was an issue with having two children under three with us going through a lot of nappies a day. Also no iron? Again paying this much for a property an iron and iron boarding should come as a basic. We holidayed in a caravan last month and had an iron and iron board in. No clock anywhere in the house, a clock would be helpful in the lounge or kitchen/diner area. Hardly any mirrors, or mirrors placed in strange areas. Not next to plugs, so how are you meant to do your hair, use the hair dryer etc. Also understandably the house is by the sea and would have a high level of birds flying past, but the decking was covered in bird poo. Which had really put us off sitting and eating out there, with the amount of bird poo. Finally shelving, there was no shelving to place toiletries/deodorants/perfumes/make up onto in any of the bedrooms, again quite poor for me. All of our toiletries ended up on the windowsill, which was quite dangerous with the heat we have just experienced, an aerosol could have exploded from the sun. Please do not take this as completely negative, it was a lovely home and highly decorated. The kitchen was wonderful and the washing machine a blessing. But some basic factors as stated above were just missing. Hence for the 4/5 star rating in the end.
