Guests are generally delighted with the property, praising its stunning views, prime location, and high standard of furnishings. The apartment is described as comfortable, well-equipped, and offering a homely feel. While some minor maintenance issues and cleanliness concerns are noted, these do not detract significantly from the overall positive experience.
Most guests found the apartment spotless and well-maintained, though a few mentioned cleanliness issues such as stained carpets and dust. These seem to be exceptions rather than the rule, hence the high score.
The location is consistently lauded for its convenience and proximity to local amenities and beaches, with the views particularly highlighted as outstanding.
The majority of guests found the apartment cosy and family-friendly, with comfortable furnishings. A few mentioned hard mattresses and small bathrooms, but these comments were relatively rare.
Facilities are generally praised, especially the well-equipped kitchen. However, some guests reported maintenance issues such as problems with bathroom fixtures and appliances, which lowers the score.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.

Fantastic apartment, well equipped and clean, There was only 4 of us, any more would struggle to sit on the sofas, But was a brilliant holiday and would definitely return,

The views, as everyone says, are the best in Salcombe, the apartment is spacious, light, clean and well equipped, and it feels cosy and comfortable rather than just a holiday property. The walk into town is easy (and downhill) and although the parking is tight (the garage is quite narrow) we fitted one small car into the garage and a Range Rover in the car port. The utility room is huge with practical things like drying racks and a heated towel rail and there is plenty of useful storage all through the apartment. The beds and furniture are all top quality. It seems unusual not to have any cleaning products supplied to help keep the property clean, the kitchen tap drips, there are no scissors in the kitchen and the shower tray in the shower room is inclined to overflow, but these are small niggles compared to the overall high standard of the apartment. We had a couple of issues which were our fault while we were there but C&C dealt with those very quickly and professionally. This really is a beautiful and lovely place to stay - we will certainly be booking again and hope to be as lucky with the weather as we were on this trip.
