Guests say
The Coach House, The Grove, is a charming cottage praised for its prime location in Ilfracombe, Devon, close to the beach and local amenities. Guests appreciate the property's cleanliness, comfortable furnishings, and the friendly owner. While some guests mention minor maintenance issues and challenges with the spiral staircase and jacuzzi bath, the overall experience is positive, with many looking forward to returning.
Most guests found the property clean upon arrival, though a few mentioned finding dust, hairs, and pet odours on the sofa. The presence of cat faeces outside was noted, but this is an external issue.
The property's location is highly praised for its proximity to the beach, village, and local attractions. Parking can be tight for larger vehicles, but the convenience of the location is a standout feature.
Guests generally find the property comfortable, with a cosy atmosphere and good amenities. However, some guests found the sofa low and uncomfortable, and the spiral staircase challenging for those with mobility issues.
Facilities are well-received, with a double jacuzzi bath and good Wi-Fi. However, there are reports of maintenance issues such as non-working lights, a shower hose held together with tape, and difficulties with the oven and Netflix.
While guests mention a cream tea on arrival, there is not enough consistent information about thoughtful touches or gifts to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such gestures are appreciated but not guaranteed.

We have a big car, and this made the parking very tight. Accommodation was lovey, although the sofa was not comfortable. Had everything needed for an enjoyable stay
