“Most expectations met but there were a lack of recycling bags,There were no tea towels,luckily we brought some extras and no towelling robes which we had on previous visits.”

In addition the wonderful picture windows had not been cleaned.We could see where people’s head s had leaned against the windows.-not good in Covid times.This was our 6th visit and there had been a drop off in cleaning standards.We have booked again for next year but this drop in cleaning standards does not reflect well on Sykes

- Mr Burgess, September 2020

Thank you for your feedback with regard to your most recent stay at Woodwell. We are sorry that you experienced some issues that fell below the high standards you have come to expect from your stays at Woodwell. It was a significant challenge to open up Woodwell for guests during the Covid-19 pandemic in particular with regard to finding cleaners willing to undertake changeovers along with bedlinen/towels suppliers and laundry firms that were still able to operate. Under firm advice from Sykes we were asked to remove as many things that were deemed to be an additional Covid risk to guests, cleaners etc. This included the face to face welcome for new guests, any unnecessary toiletries, dressing gowns, fresh flowers, wine and even the visitor’s book. To take your points in turn: - No tea towels. The laundry firm should have left tea towels for your use. We apologise that they failed to do this for you; we have told them of this oversight and they have asked me to apologise on their behalf. - Not enough recycling bags. We had to remove the rolls of blue and clear bags because of the risk of Covid-19 being passed from one weeks’ guests to another. Clearly extra bags should have been left for your stay, we’ll make sure that ample bags are left for guests in the future. - No dressing gowns. These have been removed as they were deemed to be an unnecessary Covid-19 risk for guests and cleaners/laundry staff. This was stated in the updated Guest Information manual but we understand if you may have missed that. - Marks on the inside of the windows. I can assure you that the whole property is intensively cleaned on each changeover day. We have twice the number of cleaners engaged in the changeover clean and they sanitise the property from top to bottom. This should include cleaning the windows on the inside. I have shared your feedback with the cleaning firm and they were very apologetic, this is the only complaint we have received this season regarding standard of cleanliness. We are delighted that you have booked to return next year where I sincerely hope a vaccine will have been introduced and ‘normal service’ will be resumed at Woodwell. If you do experience any issues at all on your next stay please contact Coast and Country immediately to ensure that they are resolved to your satisfaction. We have spoken with Coast and Country and they said they always encourage their guests to contact them during their stay if there is any issue whatsoever. Owner relations

“Excellent property with fantastic open living space and beautiful views.”

Great BBQ But was not well positioned on lower terrace. Insufficient lighting to use in the evening. BBQ would be better positioned on top terrace to enjoy cooking as a family.

“We have stayed in this property before so we knew what to expect and overall were very happy with our stay in this beautiful property with it’s fabulous views, despite the issues and restrictions caused by COVID-19.”

A few minor niggles worth mentioning, several of the controllers in the mezzanine games area had no working batteries, after using the washing machine the clothes smelt strongly of “fried food”,suggest the filters should be cleaned, and the plug on the iron was loose and had to be repaired before use. However, we would stay here again

“This was the 2nd time we have stayed at Woodwell and I hope it's not the last.”

The property is stunning as is the view and my only concern about giving it 5 stars is that it will make it harder for me to book for next year.

- Mr Nigel Thorpe,
“Probably the best views and maybe the best rental space in Salcombe!”

Easy access to town and plenty of parking. The indoor and outdoor areas are spacious and the bedrooms kitted out to a high standard!

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 or a more leisurely boat trip? Whilst staying in Salcombe you must take advantage of the locally sourced seafood which is served in many of the restaurants, pubs, cafés and delicatessens. The southern tip of Devon provides some spectacular scenery and picturesque vistas with a number of sandy beaches, lovely villages with thatched cottages and some fantastic opportunities for walking, including the South West Coast path.
