Guests say
Guests generally appreciate the spacious, well-equipped apartment with modern furnishings and comfortable beds. The property's peaceful setting and proximity to local attractions are noted, with special mentions of the views and the well-maintained grounds. Some guests experienced minor cleanliness issues and noted the lack of children's play area due to ongoing construction. Thoughtful touches like a welcome bottle of wine were well-received.
Most guests found the apartment to be clean and well-presented, though there were a few mentions of parts not being thoroughly cleaned and a bathroom that could have been better maintained. These seem to be isolated incidents rather than a consistent problem.
The location is praised for its tranquility and convenience to local attractions and stunning beaches. However, some guests noted the need to drive everywhere and the challenges posed by narrow country lanes.
The apartment is frequently described as comfortable, with luxurious beds and a modern, airy feel. Some guests mentioned issues with temperature control upon arrival and a draught in one of the rooms, slightly affecting the comfort level.
While the apartment itself is well-equipped, several reviews mention the closure of the children's play area and the ongoing construction, which impacted the availability of some facilities. There is not enough information to score the maintenance of the facilities accurately.
Guests appreciated the thoughtful touches like a welcome bottle of wine and Molton Brown toiletries. However, some noted the absence of basic amenities like soap and batteries for the remote. It should be noted that while these gifts are appreciated, they are not guaranteed for every stay.

Only thing Iâd like to add for owner is that guestâs should be made aware of the different levels in the property, and the unguarded drop of the stairs which we were concerned about with family member with mobility problems.
