“Fabulous apartment in wonderful location.”

- Mrs Beveridge, July 2021
Mrs Todd June 2021

“The location and accommodation were amazing, you just couldn't be nearer to the sea.”

We can't wait to return!

Tombs May 2021

“A few things did not work or extra information required.”

Only two slots of four in the toaster worked. The plug in the bath did not work. The clocks were all an hour out. ( Could not adjust the clocks in the bathroom mirrors). The extractors in the bathrooms did not work, until the mains switch was switched on! (instruction required). None of the above detracted from our stay. One other thing, I believe I left me glasses at the property!! Overall a very good property, which I would be happy to book again.

Second visit here, only thing not great this year were the glass doors and windows really dirty outside on frames and could not see through the glass

- Mrs Alder, September 2020

Thank you for taking the time to write your feedback and letting us know about the windows and glass doors. We are sorry that you found these had not been cleaned on the changeover. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. This has been addressed and I do hope you choose to visit the area again soon. Owner relations
Mrs Pickett September 2020

“The apartment was much better than we expected.”

The standard of fittings, bed linen, kitchen bits were excellent. There was nothing you would want for. Everything was top standard and it was like being home from home

- Mrs Pickett, September 2020

We are delighted that you found the property "Like home from home". Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely feedback. We hope that we will be able to welcome you back to the area again soon. Owner relations
Mr Mcguinness August 2020

“Not properly clean On arrival we have to clean toilets, fridge and particulalry the outside area that had cigarettes, shards of glass and oil dripping from hinges of door.”

The table and chairs were filthy.

- Mr Mcguinness, August 2020

Many thanks for your feedback, although we were concerned to read that the property was not satisfactorily presented prior to your arrival. As you will appreciate, we work very hard with our owners and housekeepers to ensure high standards of cleanliness are maintained, so it is disappointing to read these comments. Your feedback has been passed on to the housekeeper/cleaner concerned. Please know that if we had been made aware of your issues whilst you were on holiday would have done our best to rectify the issues immediately. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. We do hope that you had an enjoyable holiday in spite of the issues raised and look forward to welcoming you back to the area in the not too distant future. Owner relations
Mr Grimble October 2019

“Super Seafront Apartment in Beautiful Torcross.”

Beautiful Sunrise to be seen from the Bedrooms in the mornings. Extremely Clean and all that you could wish for provided. Only niggle would be to have a 'boiling water' sign on that little tap on the sink. Having never come across one of these before it was a bit of a shock when I used it. Luckily no burns. Other than that. Beautiful apartment and would recommend and return.

“Our 2nd time at 1@the beach, amazing again ...”

Our 2nd time at 1@the beach, amazing again A couple of things It asks for bins to be emptied etc, leaving a couple of black blags would be beneficial, also perhaps 1/2 dozen pegs to prevent washing blowing off of supplied airer A couple of extra toilet rolls when accommodating 4+ visitors Apart from little niggles PERFECT

Mrs Fielden July 2019

“I have been booking this particular apartment, along with others, for many, many years.”

We have been coming to this building since 1981 when it was The Torcross Apartment Hotel Both the present and past owners of Apartment 1 At The Beach have gone to a huge amount of trouble in providing everything to make for the perfect luxury and relaxing holiday. It is excellent apart from two minor points. 1) When the kitchen was originally designed a larger fridge would have been ideal. The one in Apartment 2 is perfect. 2) It is never possible to lock the en-suite bathroom door, although I mention it every time I book. Kind regards.

- Mrs Fielden, July 2019
Mrs Hiorns June 2019

“We have stayed At The Beach many times in various apartments.”

This was our first stay at No 1. It is a lovely large apartment, spotlessly clean and very stylish. Nice touch of a welcome pack and milk in the fridge too.

- Mrs Hiorns, June 2019
Mrs Edley April 2019

“Yup, this is me Mr.”

E whose wallet paid for this holiday so this is my come back. Firstly, for a holiday let, we could not really find anything negative about the apartment nor did we want to. Nicely appointed and located smack on the seafront, and the owner had put in a few welcoming touches, such as a bottle of vino, biscuits, a bottle of milk for a needed cuppa, a butler and maid and blowup doll.... joking about the last three amigos :) Entry to the property was a bit fiddly piddly pressing a sequence of command buttons at the front door... shucks, no one appeared, but we soon got the hang of it, the wife before me but she is one smart one she is. Next the long corridor to No1 and the fiddly bit again, getting access to the apartment key from a wall safe, finding the key hole in the dim lit corridor... why oh why are holiday lets always dimly lit... we must have looked like crims trying to bust in. Once in, nice. The sea view looking out was all the therapy I needed to calm down after a 230mile drive with the sat nav playing silly buggers for the last mile or so. Parking... not the best but managed to leave the family car diagonally out side the front entrance. The designated parking area is around the corner, up a narrow alley turn right into a gated parking lot. Not the best for an old codger with a stick lugging stuff. Suggest you join a gym, keep fit and have your doc check you out on a heart monitor and don't do it in the rain! I left the family wagon and horses parked diagonally at the front entrance, sod the inconvenience of the parking lot! As far as I could tell there were no provision shops nearby and what appeared to be shops were closed and probably being converted to holiday lets. There was a take away... spied a sandwich on offer at nine quid... God knows what they charge for a SubWay filled loaf? The one pub that also did meals, and take aways only had a token dog friendly welcome (huh!) bewteen 3pm and 6pm, the grave yard hours when takings are slow and low... so my beloved well traveled little Yorkie gave me a look which said 'lets skip this joint and go up market where people are accommodating, follow my lead (pun)'. Final verdict: nice chill out apartment, well appointed (had fun in the jaccuzzi bathtub retrieving my rubber duck from under the soap bubbles, yeah!) and enjoying the sea front. Would I go again? Erm, I want to see what else is on offer but recommended if you can deal with initial hasselments.

Miss Holman March 2019

“The apartment was stunning and the location of the apartment was perfect.”

We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely use Coast & Country again. We felt that the apartment was clean, comfortable and suitable for us and our requirements. Thank you for a lovely holiday and for a brilliant apartment.

Mr William Prior Oct 2018

“Had a slight problem gaining entry and could find no provision for electric shaver or toothbrush.”

But apart from these minor hiccups we had an excellent getaway, helped by the magnificent weather.
