This is honestly the most amazing holiday we’ve ever taken! Firstly I want to start by saying there’s a few reviews about the freezer not working.. the freezer is perfectly fine 🥳 the location is incredible! We were a 30 second walk away from the beach and on the weekend a delicious coffee truck parks across the road! It’s also a quick 20 minute walk into the main town. It was clean and beautifully presented; we were greeted with a pack of biscuits, tea coffee sugar, and a little milk in the fridge! The beds were incredibly comfy and there were plenty of games, children’s toys, and books to keep us occupied over the week (there’s also a smart tv in the living room if this is something you want). There a very informative folder giving you all of the information about the apartment and local amenities. It’s honestly a beautiful place I 10/10 recommend and would stay again!However with all good things come some bad leaving us with a handful of complaints. The boiler is awful if you want to use the bath the hot water doesn’t last long enough to fill it (there’s also is an electric shower that works perfectly fine). It’s a dog friendly place (which is fine despite us not taking a dog) but if you choose to use the hoover once you switch it on it breaks if wet dog and it took hours for the smell to go. Lastly there’s a lot of green mould around the skirting board in the master bedroom (unsure about the twin we didn’t use it) and along the bottom of the curtains in the master bedroom. This isn’t an issue that effects me as unfortunately it’s just a natural thing in moist places and it’s a very common issue I have in my own home, but it is something that should be getting cleaned regularly!Over all this was a perfect stay.
