    The hosts have thought of everything providing everything you need and the welcome pack of bread butter jam milk and biscuits was a lovely touch. Also tea coffee sugar for a drink when you arrive.

  • "We had a lovely holiday, the house was very nice , the view was amazing."

    It was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. It was very convenient and a short walk to shops and restaurants. My only criticism is that the property would benefit from updating.

  • "We had a fantastic family holiday at the apartment."

    It is in a perfect position. Views were amazing looking across the harbour with waves crashing against the sea walls. Stunning. Central in the town and with three pubs within yards.What’s not to like.. The apartment was well maintained and had plenty of kitchen equipment, crockery etc to satisfy our needs. The groceries that were left for us were appreciated. We used the basement garage which was handy for putting one car in and the cycles. Parking was handy at both entrances. Just two small matters. Under the double bed downstairs there was accumulated dust which we mentioned to the cleaners and on the last day a slight smell of oil coming from below. Other than that perfect.

  • "Whilst the property is in an excellent position and the views from the lounge dinning/kitchen area are wonderful the other parts of the property somewhat fall short."

    The house looks tired and in need of a redecoration, the twin bedroom on the first floor,the paint work on the walls are marked and looked grubby. The small single bedroom didn't actually work for us, the window wall and window was showing signs of mould.And It wasn't possible to leave the window open in the room as the fumes and smell of oil was coming in!our son that who was supposedly staying couldn't stay in the room and slept in the lounge! The spa shower in the bath didn't work. The toilet on the third floor wasn't really suitable unless you were under 4,6 feet in hight,or you were a contortionist and didn't mind burning your head on the ceiling light. The staircase up to the third floor in my opinion was a bit dodgy, it has a single hand rail on one side which wasn't the issue. However the stair riser on the left hand side purtrudes above the floor level and is a trip hazard. As I said previously, the position of the property and the views from the lounge are excellent, but the rest of the property let's it down.

    Thank you for the great stay (and bonus welcome pack for humans and dogs was very very welcomed and a lovely surprise touch)

  • "The lounge is beatiful and the view stunning."

    The kitchen is good and well-equipped particularly butter, milk, salt, pepper, dishwasher tablets, washer tablets etc etc, When we rented it we knew there was a lot of stairs. We didn't know that there was a lack of hand rails. Particularly the stairs going up to top floor with only a hand rail on the wall side and even going downstairs to the bedrooms the hand rails do not run the whole length. These should be in the pictures particularly the stairs going to the top floor. The bedrooms are not as well maintained and there is a damp issue in the double bedroom.

    All the bowls again due to nit been clean and dirty clothes in the wardrobe left hanging so we had to bag it and leave it but the place itself was comfy and great location and outlook

  • "First and foremost, the location of this property was perfection for us; Fantastic views, proximity to shops & restaurants (1minute+) and great walks from the door."

    For that reason we would definitely return. Would-be renters should however, be aware that this property is on three floors and if mobility is in any way an issue, the stairs to the top floor (King-size bed) could be challenging. Also, you are two floors up from all the other bedrooms! We have teenage kids so they were happy for the space!! The property is generally well equipped although there were no books/games/puzzles (that we could find?) for rainy days. Property was really cold when we arrived but quickly warmed up with easy-to-use thermostat. Be really careful with the garage door buttons; our son accidentally pressed the large square button to the left of the light switches in the garage and hit our car parked outside! Not the greatest start to the holiday but no real harm done! Overall we really liked this property as the small negatives were vastly outweighed by positives. We hope to return again soon :))
