“It's the second time we've stayed at the apartment, we had a lovely holiday as did we last time 2/3 years ago, it's a lovely apartment and is well kitted out, the one thing I would like to mention is that the sofas in the lounge (same ones) are now very uncomfortable, lots of marks and tired, all due to general wear and tear.”

I've not doubt we will be returning in the near future.

I've not doubt we will be returning in the near future. Many thanks.

- Mrs Savory, September 2020
“The apartment was clean,bright and spacious with views of the sea”

- Mrs Mckenna, August 2020
“As mentioned in previous reviews the bed in the main bedroom had no mattress cover, and the two single beds had plastic mattress covers on, neither of which is acceptable.”

Luckily I took my own covers! The property is very overlooked and the main bedroom is very cramped. The kitchen, however, is very well equipped although the fridge doesn’t seem to be working properly. The washing area is terrible, with only one washing machine and one dryer for all the apartments in a very grotty outbuilding. The apartment could do with an airer for wet swimming stuff etc. The bathroom also needs updating as it is very cramped and the flooring is lifting. The best part was the spacious living room with a large window looking out on Hope Cove and the sea.

- Mr Lambourne, July 2020
“We were very pleased with Seagrass.”

It was comfortable, well-equipped and conveniently located on the edge of Hope Cove. It was particularly nice to have sea views from the living room. Our only gripe was the lack of a washing machine in the flat itself. There was a communal wash room for the Thornlea Mews complex, but this was coin operated and there were no instructions as to how much time you were buying.

- Mr Williams, February 2020
“The appartment was well equiped and was like home from home.”

It was in a brilliant location and we really enjoyed staying there.

- Mrs Dronsfield, August 2019
“Everything was very nice, maybe you could just add some clothspins.”

- Mr Lebellec, July 2019
“Kitchen bin needs to be bigger and bathroom sink plug doesn't work.”

The bathroom in general needs a better clean and lick of paint. the shower hose is full of years of dirt. My husband initially thought it was a stripe until he used it to hose down the sand left in bath. Other than that a great location, view and parking a bonus.

- Mrs Daniels, July 2019
“We enjoyed a lovely week in Devon the apartment was not as good as described though.”

The bathroom was appalling so cramped and grubby neither bath nor basin plugs worked therefore the basin could not hold water. It was described as new build but was far from that maybe 15/20 years ago. Regards Angie Pickles.

- Mrs Pickles, June 2019
“Broadband not working - Son's unhappy no phone”

- Mr Barker, April 2019
“Overall everything was good but we found there was lack of wardrobe space in both bedrooms.”

Curtains need attention in all rooms. And no can opener in kitchen.

“Really lovelly property, just a couple of issues.”

..most importantly, it really needed blinds in the bathroom!

- ,
“This was a lovely apartment which was wonderfully equipped (everything I thought about, eg random things such as a torch, kitchen foil, washing powder for the communal washing machine was available) and so many extras such as a variety of books and DVDs.”

plus the location was superb, with lovely sea views and a gentle walk to the pub for a drink or a meal. Only downsides were that the fridge was really small but we felt the main thing was the issue of no blinds in the double aspect bathroom!! This was mentioned in almost every post in the visitors book so why has this not been addressed??? As one commentator mentioned, you feel as though you are in a goldfish bowl! and on a similar vein, despite having lovely curtains in the dining room area, plus gorgeous curtains to drape the windows overlooking the sea, the two windows that are .overlooked by lots of apartments behind you are left with no curtains!! The curtain/blind thing has been mentioned so often in the visitors book it really is inexcusable that nothing has been done! What is the point of asking for feedback??

“Good apartment but sound proofing poor.”

.the children upstairs running around late at night and early in the morning kept us awake. Also the gentlemen who resides in the apartment facility walks his dogs at 6 am every morning right past the window. The living room Velux window leaked in the rain. However the apartment was clean and excellently equipped with all modern comforts and the beds were very comfortable.

“Great pad in fab place , just needs a little TLC .”

Would stay again.

- Z patmore,
“Good location.”

Very well equipped. Furnishings very dated. Waterproof mattress protector on double bed awful to sleep on - we had to remove it. Despite there being a communal laundry facility, I would like to have had a washing machine within the property and some means of drying clothes ( drying rack etc).

About the location

HOPE COVE

Salcombe 4.6 miles; Kingsbridge 5.1 miles

The picturesque and unspoiled village of Hope Cove lies in the sheltered curve of Bigbury Bay on Devon’s south coast. A choice destination for families, the two beaches offering soft sand and rock pools for sandcastle building and fishing for small crabs. The town remains a fishing village where crabs and lobsters are still landed, however it was once used by smugglers. Many ships have perished around the coast and the wrecks that lie beneath the waves make it a popular spot for divers. Above the beach there are a number of pubs and restaurants. The coastal footpath can be joined from here and leads towards Bigbury-on-sea in one direction and the coastal resort of Salcombe in the other.

Second bedroom has two 2'6" beds that can be linked to create a King-size bed. This must be requested at time of booking. Communal gardens. One well behaved dog permitted. Telephone available for local and incoming calls only.
