Fabulous stay
Liked: The location was amazing close to the beach and arcades. Loved how spacious the apartment was for our family. Very thankful for being able to pop in early to leave the bags. Very quick responses from tbe owner about our stay.
Disliked: The noise level from the pub across the road but it died down around 11.
I have stayed in properties owned by same people before and this property is very low in standards compared to other one
Liked: Location.
Disliked: The property wasn’t clean. Strong smell of fish at the entrance as you walk in which was lingering the entire stay. Damaged flooring in kitchen so kids had to keep shoes on if walking in there. Oven was filthy and was unable to be used as when we attempted to use it the fire alarm was set off. No extractor fans on kitchen or main bathroom so when running a bath this triggered fire alarm. Loose toilet seat in downstairs toilet. Only one usable pan as the other was dirty same as trays we had to wash things before we used them as things weren’t left clean before. Windows not cleaned for quite a while. Coffee jar I cleaned as there were long out of date coffe stuck in the jar. We had brought our own though. Skirting boards and stairs thick with dust and stains over carpets throughout the house. Table very unsteady same as stool and a couple chairs.
Amazing spot for a family
Liked: Amazing place for a family of 6,with plenty of space and amazing access to the seafront.
Disliked: Main bathroom been on the top floor
Had a fantastic holiday with my family, the place has everything you need for base
Liked: Love the place, second year coming and it’s in the perfect location. The rooms are really big. Perfect for big family. Lovely sea view from top window.
Disliked: Few things need updating/fixing but nothing major. Mainly the plastering on the ceiling where there’s been a leak in a bedroom. Smelt abit damp but went soon as windows were open. Kitchen floor has seen better days but it’s clean.
