Guests say
Hiscox Cottage in Devon is highly praised for its stunning views, peaceful setting, and friendly owners. Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities, the presence of animals, and the property's cleanliness. The enclosed garden is a hit with dog owners, and the conservatory is a favourite spot for relaxation. Some minor issues with comfort and maintenance are noted, but overall, guests are delighted with their stays and often express a desire to return.
Cleanliness
Most guests find the cottage to be clean and tidy, with only a few isolated comments about cobwebs and a musty smell in one of the bathrooms. The positive remarks about cleanliness far outweigh the negatives, indicating a generally high standard of cleanliness.
Location
The location is consistently lauded for its amazing views and peacefulness. The presence of animals and proximity to local attractions add to the charm. Some guests find the narrow Devonshire roads challenging, but the secluded and picturesque setting is considered a significant advantage.
Comfort
The comfort of the cottage receives mixed reviews. While many guests find the cottage comfortable and well-equipped, there are several mentions of uncomfortable beds and issues with the upstairs bedroom's sloped ceiling. The conservatory is highlighted for its relaxing atmosphere.
Facilities
Facilities are generally well-received, with guests appreciating the well-stocked kitchen and additional amenities like table tennis. However, there are comments about the need for maintenance, such as improving water pressure and replacing dining chairs, which slightly lower the score.
