Overprized
Great location but we were expecting more from the property for the price we have paid. The house was smaller than anticipated, there was a (working) washing machine but no rack nor place to dry clothes. Before use, we washed the pots and pans because they were still sticky. Overall it was an “ok-“property but

Disappointing
On the first night of our stay our son woke up coughing and was very wheezy, he is asthmatic and needed to have his inhaler a few times. We inspected the kids room and found quite a lot of mould so decided to move his mattress to the living room area for him to sleep which worked. There was mould in other random areas aswel like around windows and the door wiper for the shower. The washing machine draw and lining inside the drum was filthy and we needed to clean it thoroughly before using it. Some of the wooden furniture could do with being updated as it is badly chipped as are most of the plates and bowls stored in the cupboard. The cups and glasses were fine though. On our last night at the property I noticed a sticker on the fire blanket box in the kitchen which shows when the fire equipment inside the property has been serviced. (There were 2 fire extinguishers aswel) the sticker showed it had last been serviced in 2011 and was due to be serviced again in 2016 but it wasn't. When speaking to the host about this he said he had them checked a couple of months ago. There should be a signature and a date on the sticker to assure guests that they are safe I'm pretty sure it needs to be done annually. After seeing this it led me to want to check the smoke alarm which I did. It didn't work! I tried multiple times to do a test sound but it wouldn't go off. We were leaving the next day in the morning so I thought I will discuss this with the host when we are back home. While we were staying in the property we accidentally caused some damage to an air vent which I discussed with the host along with my complaints. I apologised for the damage and for causing any upset and said we would pay for the damage but didn't receive one apology for anything I had complained about only excuses and accusing me of using my list of complaints to divert his attention from the damage we caused. When I explained that I didn't feel it was worth the full amount we paid and could it be discounted in any way I didn't receive a reply. The location was lovely but the property, we feel, was not worth the price we paid.

Lovely Holiday
Hope Cove is a great location , we kayaked, surfed and walked. The flat was in a good location close to beach and pubs. The nautical theme to the decor was a nice touch, and there was a great view from the lounge. The shower and cubicle is in need of updating, and the flat does feel a bit damp. On the whole we had a good stay. Thank you

lovely close location to Hope Cove.
Location perfect for walking to Hope Cove so was great to go out for an evening meal and walk back. Designated parking space ideal for small to moderate car sizes as refuse bins are next to it. We didn't do any cooking as the local Cove Café and Cottage Hotel is so good for food and we were just on a 3 night break. The apartment is nicely styled in a coastal theme and we slept well. We accepted the limited space around the bed as seen in photographs. The electric shower was fine but feel some updates in this shower room would be beneficial to help with drying towels and to prevent some chrome items from discolouring. Overall we had a wonderful short break in a beautiful area and enjoyed our stay in this apartment , we would definitely come back and stay here again.

Great compact property perfectly located for the beautiful beaches at Hope Cove
We really enjoyed our stay here and the short walk to the lovely beaches and pubs was an enjoyable one. Downhill was all about beautiful views and the uphill always a decent work out. The house was well kitted out and we all slept well throughout. The boys particularly enjoyed the shower which was so needed after a days beach activity. The property is perfect for families with young children and the playstation was very well recieved while dinner cooked and us grown ups enjoyed a glass of wine. All of the cutlery, plates and glasses are there along with a good selection of pans and other cooking requirements that you might need during your stay. Storage is adequate for the week that we stayed though a little extra in the children’s room would have been welcome. The area is just stunning with a large number of excellent beaches within easy driving distances. The beaches at Hope Cove were great and really safe for all activities. We ate at The Cove Bar in the village and this was excellent and the local shop had everything you might need with main supermarkets at Kingsbridge a short drive away. A well stocked Coop and petrol station are nearby on the drive to Kingsbridge. A fine house in a great location for a really wonderful beach holiday.
