Mrs Laybourn
This property is all about the views, they are amazing from the living room, master bedroom and terrace area. The whole property needs modernising and a deep clean. On arrival the property had not been cleaned properly so we called the cleaner and she returned the next day to clean the areas we were particularly unhappy with. The rooms are of a good size but are dominated by large dated furniture, a lot of which could be removed. There is a freestanding shower in one of the twin bedrooms that is not attached to the wall and is unsafe. There is a 'cave' in the conservatory off the kitchen which is damp and dark and whilst is an interesting feature, needs to be added to the property description. It made all of the rooms on that floor smell of damp and our youngest child was scared of it and we had to keep the doors closed and buy air fresheners.

We visited for a week from Saturday 13th July 2024. Fantastic location. Great to have an allocated parking space. Amazing views of the estuary. The lift down to the ground floor is necessary to bring our bags down, although you can walk down the steps. Then a further set of steps down to the property. The house was generally clean overall, just a few issues that were fed back. James the handyman made us aware of an non urgent electrical issue which the electrian came to fix a couple of days later. While James was on site, we reported another issue which he promptly resolved. Really nice man, very friendly. We would definitely look at returning next year.

Despite a few problems we enjoyed our stay in this property, it is very well positioned for Dartmouth with lovely views of the estuary.
