"It’s in a good location in that you can walk into Sidmouth, and there are lovely walks in the Byes the park.The host responded quickly when we had an issue with a door. The big challenge is the parking as without my husbands blue badge we would have struggled to park anywhere near, I would worry that in the season this would be even harder. The house is well equipped, and the bed is comfy, I agree with previous comments that the sofa is not comfy, and some areas need an update. I think also that it should explain that there are steps at the front door, and the stairs and the bathroom access are tricky, we just about managed them as 70 yr olds, but I think they would also be tricky for a toddler. Sidmouth is a lovely place to visit ."

"Property ok lots of lovely areas but several issues we were not happy with. Entrance to property overgrown with vegetation, muddy pathway and steps slimy and slippery . Spent the first hour cutting back the overgrown plants and clearing and cleaning the steps and pathway to make them safe and more pleasant for our 6 day stay. Garden a big let down lawn full of weeds and borders all unkempt. Unable to use the outside sofas as not pleasant overgrown with plants and weeds in the paving. Leafs and dirt in the patio area. Not nice to sit in or look at. We did do some clearing up which helped but should not have to do this. Gutter downpipe blocked so guttering over flowing badly when rained heavily. We cleared the gutter down pipe to stop potential damage to the property while it was raining so hard. Rain shower in main bathroom temperature control not working scalding hot unable to reduce the temperature. Toilet seat in main bathroom very loose. Downstairs shower room not pleasant due to discoloured and limescaled shower doors etc.. needs renewing. Washing machine but no dryer as advertised. It was a great shame as the property has so many good points and beautiful furnishings and in a great location. We paid approximately 200 a night and expected more"

"I'd probably rate this cottage as a 4.5 Rosemary our host was on site and extremely accommodating, sorting out any issues. Her welcoming pack was extremely generous and the homemade scones with clotted cream and jam went down a treat after a long drive. A few snagging issues with the cottage requiring some maintenance. The one mile long drive to the cottage is challenging for cars with low profile tyres, ok if you have a 4x4. We were fortunate as the pot holes had been filled and less of a bumpy ride. We had a food delivery on our day of arrival and the driver commented on the road repairs. The views from the cottage were stunning and overlooking a field full of sheep. The description of the surrounding areas and photos were a bit misleading. The enclosed garden and decking was very tiny for our Doberman with the pictures suggesting there was much more secure grassed areas for our 4 legged friend to freely roam. The BBQ area could have an overhaul, with the weed membrane not serving its purpose plus seating here would capture the late afternoon sun. Really can't take away the generosity of Rosemary and our leaving gift of a jar of homemade honey was a lovely surprise. Rosemary is a bee keeper and a true hands on host."
