The rooms were very clean and tidy. The bathroom was excellent. We did, however, need to wash two frying pans before we could use them as they were very greasy and dirty There was also a cup, which had obviously been used for cleaning teeth, as it was very stained with toothpaste and had some hair in it! We also felt that a full-length mirror would be very useful ,perhaps one which could be hung on the back of the bedroom door. I also felt that the double bed was very low. Overall, we were very pleased with the accommodation. The park was in a very good position, being very close to Dartmouth and local shop We had a very enjoyable stay, the lovely weather was a bonus, and would be happy to recommend it to friends etc.

“No Lock on Bathroom door.”

When it rained noticed a bad leak on guttering between Kitchen and Bathroom windows.

“Cleaning issues On top of cupboard by door, what looked like rings left by cups on top.”

All windows in cabin needed of a good clean. Food splatters on cupboards in kitchen. Not hovered behind opened doors in both bedrooms near skirting. Not swept or cleaned under mat in main room or under seating. Bits of mud , dust and other small stuff. Other issue Noise every time you flush the toilet. Comfort issues Main bed not very comfortable Having conservatory furniture is not very comfortable after a day of walking about. I will also be placing my own reviews on websites and other media sites.

“Brilliant little plave ideal for us and our 2 year old.”

Only minor downside, not that we needed it, is a dishwasher is listed amongst the facilities but was not there. Otherwise, a great venue, loads of room for playing outside. Great distance from the Park and Ride and easy to access other areas of Devon.

Many thank's for your feedback, sorry there was no dishwasher, we will pass your comments onto the owner. Owner relations

“The bed in the main bedroom is listed as a double bed.”

People should be aware that the bed although it is a double is more like a put you up bed as it is very low to the floor. There is also very little room to walk along the bottom of the bed so whoever sleeps on the side by the window has to walk like a crab to get past the bottom of the bed to get out. Luckily we had asked for the 2 single beds to be made up so we slept in those as there is no way we would have been able to get in and out of the double bed. There is not much hanging space in the wardrobes in the main bedroom. One side had the Hoover, ironing board etc in so we had to take those out and leave them in the bedroom so we could hang clothes up. Because of the very small space between the end of the bed and the wall we could not get to the wardrobe by the window. People should also be told that the freezer is in the cupboard under the sink. It took us a while to find it as you would not expect it to be in that cupboard.

Thank you for taking the time to complete our feedback form, we are sorry that the property was not as expected, we always take this kind of feedback on board so we can operate in a clear and concise manner as to not misrepresent our properties. On this occasion we feel as though the images do represent the property well and it is clear that this is one of our smaller, cosy properties. Please contact us if you would like to discuss this further or in more detail, we are open 7 days a week 9am-7pm. Owner relations

About the location

DARTMOUTH

Totnes 12 miles.

Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many local events such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through picturesque countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat trip across to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a pretty little harbour town. For those seeking some beach activities, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blue Flag Award winner Blackpool Sands, and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular and just a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.
