Meg
There are one or two things which let it down. The kitchen has an [in my opinion] overlarge cooker and so many gadgets and pieces of equipment that there is no room for food other than the fridge. The under TV cupboard was inconvenient and inappropriate for such use as labelled. We left the house cleaner than we found it. Kitchen and bathrooms were spotless, but under the sofas we found sweets and other foodstuffs, toys and fluff. Under the beds, we found an empty coke can and toys. The promised parking disc cards were not there. A phone call to the owner brought a promise of 'the cleaner will drop it off'. That never happened and so parking the second car caused quite an expense and usually a long walk after a busy day. The bottle of prosecco was a nice touch on arrival.

Perfectly situated really close to beach and amenities and with a partial sea view from the attic bedroom window. We really appreciated the prosecco on arrival, thank you! The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well equipped and the towels were lovely and thick. Despite being an all adult party we were delighted to find comprehensive beach supplies including buckets and spades and crabbing buckets in the shed! A couple of minor things that could have made our stay even more perfect would have been a few cleaning supplies, such as a multi surface spray and some loo cleaner. If there was a hoover we never found it. Some instructions for the attic blind would have been helpful and the main grill wasn't working in the oven. None of that was enough to detract from an excellent stay in a beautiful house though.

Garden much smaller than seen in photo - overgrown and garden sofa filthy - requires a cover. Kitchen well stocked - however cooker hadn't been cleaned for weeks - inground cooking and smoked +++. Generally clean but very dusty behind furniture and stair carpet spotted with spills. Under cushions on sofa there were crumbs and general dust. These issues spoiled the house which was lovely. Carla
