The property has received mixed feedback on cleanliness. While some guests found it spotless and well-maintained, others noted dust, a musty smell, and occasional oversights in cleaning. These issues seem to be inconsistent rather than systemic.
The location is highly praised for its lovely views, proximity to beaches, and local walks. Guests consistently appreciate the setting, making it a standout feature of their stay.
Most guests find the apartment comfortable, with ample space and cosy furnishings. However, some have mentioned that the beds could be improved with new mattresses, and the outdoor seating could be more comfortable.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with the apartment being well-equipped for guests' needs. Nonetheless, there are comments about maintenance issues such as broken appliances and the need for clearer instructions for heating and hot water.
There is insufficient information to score thoughtfulness accurately. While some guests mentioned a lack of welcome gifts, it is not a consistent theme across the reviews, and such amenities are not guaranteed.

Only one TV remote for the two JVC televisions. A lovely spacious apartment with great views along the coast.

A short walk to the two beaches. Sofa and beds very comfortable . Beautifully clean with dish washer tablets, washing up liquid supplied . The Village Inn is a very welcoming dog friendly pub with lovely food. We have already booked again for next year.

The only comment is to update the caretakers phone number as there was a power cut and we rang the number to ask where the fuse box was and the previous caretaker answered. He was lovely and told us the answer however!
