Guests say

The Hideaway in Devon is a well-regarded cottage, praised for its cleanliness, modern fittings, and excellent location close to local amenities and sightseeing spots. Guests appreciate the comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen, and the garden, which is a hit with pet owners. Some concerns were raised about maintenance issues and the need for additional seating in the lounge.

Guests consistently note the property as very clean and well-presented upon arrival, with only minor suggestions for improvement.

The location is highly praised for its convenience, proximity to beaches, coastal paths, and local dining, making it an ideal spot for sightseeing and relaxation.

The property is generally found to be comfortable, especially the beds. However, some guests mention that the lounge seating is insufficient for four people, and there are comments about the heaviness of the duvet and lack of fans during warm weather.

The kitchen and bathrooms are well-received, but several reviews mention maintenance issues such as the dishwasher installation, exposed cables, and double glazing. The garden furniture and terrace also received criticism for their condition.

There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the property owners towards the guests, hence this category cannot be scored.

    Clean with comfortable bed and great shower. Beautiful views and well positioned for shop, pub and walks. A couple of suggestions: Entrance lets it down slightly with recycling bins and dirty mat but once inside it’s such a lovely property. Needs its car parking space labelled as parking for 5 properties. Overall, great place to stay and would book again.

  • George

    It does not disappoint. Great bungalow, great location. Very clean. As I mentioned before (and suggested by others) I think that another single lounge chair be provided. This is a 4 person let with only comfortable chairs for 3.

  • Ann

    It is well presented, the kitchen is excellent. Location was perfect for us. Enjoyed our stay and hope to return. Minor point which may be my error - the battery for the vacuum didn’t seem to charge so I couldn’t clean floors before we left. I did leave a note for housekeepers.
