    No chopping board is a bit extreme for self catering. Need to provide more cleaning things and hand soap. The signage on site is poor and doesn’t differentiate between wheelchair accessible routes and routes with stairs. Need to add signage for both with wheelchair and stair symbols. Friendly and helpful reception staff but they weren’t able to point out wheelchair accessible routes on the walking map of the grounds. That map needs to be updated with that information. The wheelchair roundabout in the children’s playground doesn’t work properly.

    We had to bring covers for the sides as we were concerned that my daughter might get her feet stuck through the gap. The wet room was good and the shower chair was very useful. There were two bathrooms, yet only one toilet!! The listing clearly says 'washing machine'. We took that to mean a washing machine was present in the property. There isn't. Our daughter's condition is such that she produces a lot of washing meaning we spent about £40 in the Laundrette. The Laundrette on site is not level access. The swimming pool is lovely The Café on site produces good food. The area and grounds are stunning and are definitely worth a walk around. The part of Britain is stunning but expensive. Pennywell farm cost us nearly £100 to literally not feed the animals!! The highlight for us was a boat trip in Torbay. We took a totally accessible trip with 'Wet Wheels' to see seals, marine birds and Dolphins, what a sight and honour to see these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. All in all good accommodation, very clean, plenty of facilities an enjoyable holiday.

    Beautiful surroundings. great accommodation better than home would like to live there. Only one thing in the wet room a drop down seat would have been better as the shower chair did not work for me and a grab rail would be very helpful to. I did mention this to reception.
