Pros:
- A nice little house for a few days.
- very nicely decorated, as shown in the photos, with comfortable beds and pillows and quality linen.
- kitchen had EVERYTHING (except maybe a rice cooker)
- bathrooms had everything you needed as well, but bath mats would have been a good addition.
- some board games and cards provided
- house was generally very well-equipped
Cons:
- somewhat misleading photos of the view and the house itself from the beach. It looks across to the other side of the estuary, not down towards the sea, as in the photo.
- the house from the beach is the dark orange brick one in between the new grey one and the one on the other side of the hedge. The photo should show this property only or have an arrow indicating which one it is.
- like a lot of houses on the coast, this is advertised as air conditioned when in actual fact it has ONLY ONE wall unit only above the stairs, to cool both upstairs and downstairs. It just wouldn't cut the mustard on hot days.
- the bedroom downstairs has a damp problem and an unpleasant musty smell. I do not think it's healthy.
- the extensive essay of "don'ts", which I received with EVERY communication was off putting. I appreciate that owners want their houses to be respected but I think this needs to be couched in more cordial terms, eg. "We hope you understand how inconvenient it would be for the fan controls to be misplaced so we would very much appreciate that you could make sure that they are returned to their holders" , etc etc etc
- a better list of local restaurants, cafes etc in a folder marked as such on the outside, would have been good.
