“I have found it harder to get hold of the office due to the nationalization of the business.”

This is unfortunate, in my opinion and with this type of business it is always nicer to deal directly with someone locally than a national number.

“Clean modern interior, nice kitchen with everything you need, warm and lots of information, odd little beach bungalows but a good base for exploring the area easy to find.”

Lovely views of south Hams hills at the back, small outdoor space but lots of buckets and spades in the shed, so good for children. Bunk beds were fun.

We are so pleased to hear that you found 49 Cumber Close, in Malborough, so suitable for your party, with everything you needed, including lots of buckets and spades in the shed for the children! We hope you enjoyed exploring this beautiful area with your family and had fun visiting the many beaches close by. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

“Great value for money, clean and well equipped for our needs.”

Great to have a designated parking space. Will be perfect when both children can use the bunk beds, had to squeeze youngest and cot into master bed, but still worked. Great access to the park, and local shop by foot.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a kind review of your stay at 49 Cumber Close near Salcombe. We were so pleased to hear that you felt the property offered great value for money and was well equipped for your needs. Your comments in respect of our service are also much appreciated - thank you. We do hope to see you again very soon! Owner relations
“Cumber close was okay.”

I would say no more than a solid okay. In terms of the size, position, facilities and furniture it was as we had expected it to be, so good from that point of view. However to describe it on the website as "immaculate" was going too far. I think you should describe it as "comfortable and well appointed". The kitchen was well appointed in terms of equipment etc - much better than much smart/posher places we have stayed in. However, whilst is was adequately clean; certainly the bathroom and kitchen were clean and the floors were hoovered; there was way too much dust and far too many cobwebs for it to be described as "immaculate". In some places it was a bit tired looking (shower/bath). We used the hoover to get rid of the cobwebs in the corners of the bathroom, kitchen and both bedrooms - it had clearly not had a "proper" clean (corners/under beds etc) for some weeks. It was NOT dirty, just dusty (all the nick nacks on display etc were dusty as was the fireplace) and very cobweb-y. We have stayed in a good many holiday homes and we normally go for 4 or 5 star and use Helpful Holidays and Toad Hall cottages because the cleanliness IS immaculate. They had nothing to offer in Salcombe for this particular week and of course we were booking at very short notice so we decided to try your company. I think if you rent out a house and you want to market it as immaculate then you HAVE to pull out all the furniture, give it all a good old dust everywhere including the nooks and crannies and also do the ceilings for cobwebs ...on a weekly basis! Anyway - the place WAS comfy, good facilities, good supply of information which we found useful - thank you - and good position for the money. We would probably try Coast and Country again, but if the next one is dusty or cobweb-y then we would feel once bitten twice shy.
“The property was nice and had everything that we needed.”

My only disappointment was that it wasn't nearly as clean as I would have liked. There was a lot of dirt and hair under the chairs that had the leg rest and this was clearly visible when using them.
