   "This is a grand old house in a splendid location and my review is made more in sadness than in anger. What might have once been described as rustic chic, certainly as far as the exterior is concerned, has sadly been allowed to decline through a lack of maintenence. Much of the timberwork at the rear (sea side) is peeling and the decking is in real need of a good jet-wash, repair and maintenence; the bottom step onto the deck is loose and is a hazard. When we were there, the gardens were overgrown and unkempt and planters sad, weedy and dead. I do realise that this is fairly early in the season but even so...On arrival at 3.10pm, we were ticked off by the cleaning lady (who is in fact a very pleasant and helpful person) because she said we were early -our details said 3.00pm and she said it should be 4.00pm. We hung around until 3.30 before unloading the cars.The interior decor of the rooms was good and the beds comfortable. The kitchen area was good and very big, the wooden cupboards being 19th century are in need of a good rub-down and wax polish. There is a broken floor tile by the sink which lifts in one corner when you stand on it and anyone with unprotected feet walking by at that point would receive a considerable injury from the shards. Our daughter was not able to operate the spa-bath in the on-suite bathroom. One of the shower wastes was partially blocked allowing water to flow onto the floor, which soaked my wife's wedding clothes, dripped through to the ceiling below and onto confetti which was on the kitchen table. All in all, not a happy experience. I did speak to the owner who was very sympathetic to our plight but disappointed that we had to ask for a gesture of recompence from Bookings.com. I feel something should have been proffered.I do hope that the proper resources are put into this property; we would love to have it. If it was brought up to scratch (we operate our own self-catering apartments in Devon) then this could be an absolute gem."

   "A really lovely cottage, generously equipped and nicely furnished. It easily accommodated our group of 9 (aged 61 to 12 years old) and we had a great week. Beds surpassed our expectations, really comfortable with good linen and soft duvets. Kitchen was spacious with excellent white goods and well equipped. Fabulous dining room and spacious lounge. Kids liked the cellar games room. Nice modern showers and plenty of toilets for large groups. My only gripe was the sofas in the living room have seen better days (cushions are quite hard) and the benches on the main terrace are giving up the ghost. No problem, we took chairs out, but the rickety nature was a bit troubling. Note - there is virtually no mobile phone signal, but wifi was good and the owner has provided a land line.At the beginning of the week the views (outside terraces on 3 levels, fantastic views from 4 bedrooms) were great - sea, boats, white cliffs and France - but haze and then thick fog removed the view for the last 3 days! It was still atmospheric though, and we could hear the fog horns as the boats approached Dover Harbour.Hard work to walk to a pub, we didn't. However a short drive down to the beach and the Coastguard did excellent food, and the village store had all the basics (need to drive there really). Loads to do in the vicinity and some excellent walks across the cliffs. A bit alarming in thick fog though! Yes there are lot of steps, but we all managed fine and had a fabulous week. S13615 has a lovely friendly feel, and we may return."

   "“S13615” is a magnificent house in an ideal location on the White Cliffs with superb views of the Channel, which we had also rented in 2016. Its spacious rooms accommodated our 11 strong family group very comfortably and we had an excellent holiday, helped by glorious sunny weather almost the whole week. But we were disappointed by the outdoor space, which could be a very attractive feature. There were no chairs for sitting outside and, even if there had been, it would not have been a pleasant experience, as the garden had been left to run wild and had deteriorated even from last year. There are spacious sunny verandas with lovely views of the sea, but we were unable to make use of them as there were no comfortable outdoor chairs and no umbrellas to provide shade. The interior of the house was a bit shabby in some places and there were a number of annoying minor irritations, including no bulb in a bedside light; a shower with a partially blocked outlet, which leaked through the kitchen ceiling on one occasion; unlabelled keys; and no washing line. Despite these drawbacks we would probably go again because of the size and location of the house, but if they could be rectified it would provide an even better experience."

   "We had an amazing time at S13615. The grandparents and dogs had the ground floor bedroom, teenagers in the attic and everyone else in between! It was nearly perfect for our extended family holiday. We had 3 under 5's who adored the games room (though we did hold our breath everytime they went up or down the stairs!). The views were amazing and we all loved sitting and listening to the sound of the waves.Yes, in some areas the decoration was a little tired - but with 5 children and 2 dogs this wasn't a problem for us, it just made us feel comfortable in using everything. The beds were comfortable and there was everything we needed and more provided. The only slight negatives are:The twin beds are now downstairs with a double in the attic - not as described and not what we had planned for.The garden is not dog safe. We moved some furniture around to make the terrace safe but had to stay close when they were in the garden or they would escape!Lack of teaspoons! Everything else was there - glasses, electric whisks blender etc but we would have liked another dozen teaspoons!!! All in all we had a great time and the house was really lovely - we could loose hours watching the view!"

   "We LOVED staying at this beautifully appointed little cottage. The location is perfect - just a few steps from the beach and a great gastro-pub, Zetland Arms. We stayed just before Easter and were greeted with a tea tray laid out complete with hot cross buns for us and two chocolate eggs for our two children - lovely touch. It has everything you'd wish to have in a holiday cottage - kitchen with lots of equipment, dishwasher (and tablets), washing machine (with tablets), microwave; lounge with TV and a gorgeous little log burner (we brought our own logs), comfy beds with good quality linens and a newly fitted bathroom. We barbecued outside too as the weather was perfect. In terms of additional fittings, the only thing we felt the cottage needed was thicker curtains or blackout blinds as the kids bedroom in particular was too light, too early. We'd love to return to S13604 for another visit soon."
