The sofa and chairs were unhygienic and not as the picture on the site. The whole property needs a thorough deep clean. Seasonal bedding needs attention as the current duvet and pillow covers are best served for the summer months. We live in a coastal village but still felt extremely cold in our beds. Towels not fit for purpose. Are was nice and we spent our week harbour fishing, weather was pleasant which helped soothe our overall disappointment of the cottage.

The garden was lovely we liked chilling out on the top table taking in the views of the valley. Yes we would definitely consider coming back at some point in the future .

Helpful welcome email with all the details we could need. The house was clean and tidy on arrival. Big enough for six, well equipped and very comfortable beds. Great location in the heart of Combe Martin with easy access to local coast walks, beach, shops, pubs & the North Devon coast & moors. Garden on several levels with steep steps. If anything, the washing machine was a bit fiddly to use. Overall, nice comfortable family sized home.
