    “Says there is a freezer there wasn't.”

    Had done a food shop for the week. We had stayed here on 2 other occasions won't be staying again. No gate to the road definitely not dog safe. Bed not comfortable. Battery gone in remotes (I replaced them last time I was there) batteries going in the smoke alarm- no battery to replace. The shower screen has been replaced with a curtain this sticks to you. Not pleasant seen as it will stick to everyone's body. There is a cobweb in the same place in the fake flowers that was there 2 years ago ...

Not sure how often the place is cleaned as there were more cobwebs than walls in some areas.

    - Diane, September 2024

    Dear Diane – thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your recent stay. We were surprised to read some of the comments and disappointed you did not contact us during the stay so we could provide additional support to resolve these issues and help to make your stay more enjoyable. This was the first time we were aware you had any issue during your stay. *The kitchen in Fairview does have an under the counter fridge freezer, due the space constraints, there is no option to provide a large fridge freezer. We could have provided additional support if you had told us. *The ‘gate post’ was recently damaged and a new steel post had been ordered before your stay (& is now in place!). We were not aware that you had a dog, but could have helped, if you told us. *The cobwebs in the flowers does seem strange to us, as these flowers were replaced by us earlier this year and have not been in place for 2 years. I am glad that you noticed the flowers and hope you agree they brightened the room. *We can assure you that the house is cleaned after each stay, however sometimes there is a gap between guests departing/arriving and cobwebs may appear. Your assertation that there are more cobwebs than walls is unkind and also untrue. We are sorry you felt it necessary to make this false claim. *If you had told us the remote needed new batteries, we could have directed you to the cupboard to find replacement batteries instantly. Our smoke detectors meet strict fire standards and are hardwired to the mainline power, so no batteries are required. *We were sorry read that you did not enjoy your stay at Fairview this time, but hope that you managed to enjoy the local walks, beaches and town centre during your stay.

The property

This pleasant property is located in the bustling seaside town of Salcombe, in a residential area with plenty of hidden gems to uncover; a perfect way to begin a holiday by the sea. Whether a getaway for two is on the horizon or a trip with the family, Fairview is a relaxing base to come together and spend some quality time in a calming destination. An external flight of stairs leads down to the lower ground floor accommodation, where you will discover a sitting room with comfy seating, and an extendable dining table in the window. The kitchen boasts a charming set-up, matched accordingly with wood effect counter-tops and sage coloured units, a lovely place to dish up your favourite meals throughout the day. Snuggle up in one of the two bedrooms as the night draws in, both neutrally styled with a glimpse of colour, and low lighting to bring a warm glow to the pretty sleeping arrangement. A family bathroom comprises of a quality suite with a bath and a shower cubicle. There is a useful utility room too with a spare fridge freezer, a great place also to store your beach equipment. Outdoors, the lovely lawn has fantastic views of the rolling Devon hills and Dartmoor in the distance, offering the perfect spot to relax on a warm sunny day. There are two pretty beaches within a short distance, North Sands and South Sands, and further on is the National Trust property Overbeck’s where you can wander through the subtropical gardens. Why not have a more adventurous day and try out the watersports available on the estuary, including surfing, kayaking and stand up paddleboarding? The southern tip of Devon provides some amazing scenery and picturesque vistas to make your stay that much more memorable.
