Guests say
Guests are consistently impressed with Rocky Close, praising its spaciousness, stunning views, and additional luxuries such as a hot tub. The property is celebrated for its cleanliness, comfort, and excellent location near the beach and town. While minor issues are mentioned, they do not detract from the overall exceptional experience.
Reviewers consistently note the property's spotlessness and the provision of clean, fluffy white towels and bedding, indicating a high standard of cleanliness.
The property's proximity to the beach, Tate gallery, and town facilities, along with its beautiful ocean views, are highly appreciated by guests, suggesting an excellent location.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the house warm, with good heating. The spaciousness of the property contributes to the overall comfort, although a comment about limited seating in the sitting room suggests a slight deduction.
The property is well-equipped with a hot tub, log burner, and kitchen utensils, likened to a home from home. However, a minor issue with the dishwasher and a mention of needing new batteries for the remote indicate room for improvement in maintenance.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the host, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

The house is fab - exceptionally clean and comfortable with loads of space and great views - and the hot tub was a fantastic addition. Host was super helpful and friendly checking on the hot tub to make sure all working ok. Perfect family getaway.

Pictures do not do it justice. Rooms are big and everything is provided. View is beautiful and hot tub to boot. What more could be said. New batteries in the remote for Netflix would have helped and Iâm sure they would have been done Iâd we asked. Nothing was any trouble and lovely people to book with. Highly recommend and would visit again.
