“Overall, we had a pleasant stay and found the accommodation to be well suited to our group (4) in many ways.”
The location was excellent, and the property was spacious enough for six people to stay comfortably. Having everything on one level was particularly beneficial for anyone with reduced mobility, and the three bathrooms were a real bonus, making it much easier for everyone to get ready. All of the appliances worked well throughout our stay, and the keyless entry system with a door code was very convenient as it meant we didn't have to worry about keeping track of keys.

The location was excellent, and the property was spacious enough for six people to stay comfortably. Having everything on one level was particularly beneficial for anyone with reduced mobility, and the three bathrooms were a real bonus, making it much easier for everyone to get ready. All of the appliances worked well throughout our stay, and the keyless entry system with a door code was very convenient as it meant we didn't have to worry about keeping track of keys. There was also plenty of comfortable sofa space for all six of us to relax together in the evenings.
There were, however, a few areas that could be improved. The property became extremely hot due to the large amount of glass. We stayed during a heatwave, but even so, some fans would make a big difference during the summer months. There was also no shade on the decking, so we ended up trying to create some ourselves using a golf umbrella.
The bedding could also do with some attention. The duvet covers had been put on incorrectly, so they didn't fit the duvets properly, and the pillows were very thin, leaving several of us with sore necks by the end of the week. The waterproof mattress protectors also made the beds uncomfortably hot to sleep on.
The kitchen was generally well equipped, but there weren't enough saucepans to cook meals for six people. The crockery was also rather inconsistent, with plenty of plates but only three cups. The coffee machine was a nice addition, but the pods were difficult to find in local supermarkets, only a few had been provided, and the machine hadn't been emptied before our arrival. The fridge also felt quite small for a property accommodating six guests.
Finally, some of the windows and doors would benefit from maintenance. The windows operated inconsistently, with some opening fully, others only partially, and some not locking at all, which felt a little concerning given that they were at ground level. The patio doors also appeared to be faulty, with a noticeable gap at the side even when closed, and one of the living room windows had to be forced shut each time it was used.
