Mrs Baldwin October 2019

“Apartment was grubby when we arrived, so the first thing we had to do was clean the kitchen and bathrooms.”

The stained carpet was obviously long-standing and beyond our ministrations. Many items were not working - eg lights, blinds, doors, and bathroom extractor. Some basics were missing - eg milk, sugar. Only one solitary cleaning cloth had been provided, plus one previously used pan scourer, two dishwasher tablets, and one rubbish bag. Overall impression was of meanness and end of season tiredness. This apartment does not compare favourably with others at Prospect House.
Mrs Myles September 2019

“5 Prospect House This is a lovely flat in a beautiful position, where we have stayed 3 times - but - it is looking very much in need of a refresh.”

The living room carpet is dreadful and as we and others have already reported this had expected it to have been changed since our last visit. This and other minor issues (bedroom french door handle broken, light bulbs missing, bathroom fan not working, freezer door sticks, info pack years old etc) mean could not currently recommend to friends as it now looks generally a bit grubby in places and uncared for. Usual clean of bathrooms and kitchens good and still comfortable but needs regular deep clean and ditch that old carpet and old cushions.!! Such a shame it has been let go as it is a true gem of a place. Really sincerely hope it gets the attention it needs.
Mrs Sturgess September 2019

“Carpets let the place down especially in the lounge, it should have had solid floor similar to the kitchen given the amount of footfall during the season Intermittent WFI should be mentioned.”

There was a very rusty bbq taking up space on one of the bedroom balconies However The quality of the kitchen and bathrooms were very good
Mr Vickers August 2019

“Fabulous accommodation, beautiful views and great facilities.”

“Lovely as always, been 4 times.”

Could do with the carpets cleaning my only criticism.

We are glad that you again had a lovely holiday and appreciate your feedback. We will be arranging for the carpets to be addressed shortly and look forward to seeing you again. Owner relations

“Reason for failing to meet expectations was the booking process itself - Our booking was very much last minute - we were already on holiday at somewhere we did not like, and wanted to go to a Coast and Country property in Devon as we had used them before and knew the standard was high.”

Unfortunately promised call backs and emails did not happen, which meant phoning numerous times, each time with a long wait. This was very frustrating as we were booking for the very next day and the price was not as published on the website.

Thank you for your feedback We are pleased that you have enjoyed Coast and Country Cottages previously and can only apologies for the delay in coming back to you. With our last minute bookings we don't advertise the prices as we need to confirm that the property is ready to receive guest at such short notice, however, we do appreciate the frustration and it is something that we are addressing. We look forward to welcoming you back to the area soon. Owner relations
“Very comfortable.”

Lovely surrounding area. Superb views
“We've visited for a few years consecutively.”

The situation of the property is stunning. The pool is fantastic. The kitchen is very well equipped. However the sofa and bed are getting a bit dated.
“Beautiful property and well appointed.”

Only concern is that clean was very much a surface clean and needs a more thorough clean between guests. e.g. under microwave had not been cleaned for a while as crumbs etc under it. Lots of dust. Also bath not properly cleaned as was grubby to touch. A bit more attention to detail required. However that did not detract from property and location. We are fairly relaxed about stuff like this but I know it would really upset some people.
“Property was clean and well kept.”

“Excellent has a lovely covered heated pool and tennis courts.”

The views are amazing from dawn to dusk. Walks along the coast path both ways are breath taking. A secluded cove on a warm sunny day was the highlight for us.

Your kind feedback regarding the excellent service provided to you by our team is also particularly pleasing. We hope you choose to return to 5 Prospect House again soon. Owner relations

About the location

HALLSANDS

Start Point 1.5 miles; Beesands 3 miles; East Portlemouth 5.5 miles; Kingsbridge 8 miles.

Hallsands is a small village near Start Point, one of the most southerly points on Devon’s coastline, near Salcombe in the beautiful South Hams area. The sheltered South Hams Peninsula is in 'deepest Devon', a pastoral landscape of flowering hedgerows and ancient sunken lanes, carved into by the richly wooded Avon and Dart Valleys. This quiet fishing village, with its dog-friendly, unspoilt beach, is situated next to the historic ‘old village’ of South Hallsands, just three miles from the popular Beesands Beach which has its own gastro pub and shop. This Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is decorated with white, pink and ochre thatched cottages, picturesque fishing ports such as Dartmouth, and is renowned for its stunning coastline, popular with yachting enthusiasts. Much of the clifftop land has been acquired by the National Trust, a haven for bird watchers and walkers who take advantage of the South West Coast Path, peppered with perfect picnic spots. Nearby, uncover the beauty of Blackpool Sands and Torcross, a historic site where the Normandy landings were practiced; explore the nature reserve at Slapton Ley, and stroll along Slapton Beach, feeling the soft sand between your toes. Park at East Portlemouth and catch the ferry across to the beautiful seaside town of Salcombe with its renowned estuary, or visit the Start Point Lighthouse, less than a mile away. Hallsands is a wonderful base for uncovering the unspoilt beauty of Devon and the South Hams, all year round.

Shared heated swimming pool is usually open between May and September - this is subject to change and is weather dependent.

Due to the close proximity to the cliff edge, children and dogs should be supervised at all times.
