  : The views from the main bedroom and kitchen across Salcombe were truly amazing. Interesting layout of accommodation over several floors added to the charm of this period property. Very well equipped and nicely furnished, comfortable and clean light and airy. The Information Folder in the property is very comprehensive. Salcombe is a really wonderful location with wonderful artisan shops, a fantastic bakery, restaurants, pubs, galleries, large well stocked Co-op with parking, hotels and excellent fish & chips and ice-creams. The wonderful beaches are a small ferry journey across the water, from the safe harbour, eco port, passing a myriad of small boats at anchor
  : As car parking for No 2 is not next to property, you need to park outside No 2 to unload and load cases etc. Very difficult to park our longish car in space provided, so once in the space, we left the car there throughout our 4 day visit! A map showing the location of the allocated car-parking space in the narrow lane behind the property, should be included with the emailed booking confirmation documents - we initially mistakenly squeezed into next door's space! The road has double yellow lines along its length. Considering the location of the property, a long steep walk from shops, the welcome 'posh hamper' contents were disappointing after a long journey, We would have welcomed a loaf of bread, butter, milk, biscuits as well as the few coffee, tea, sugar sachets supplied, to tide us over until we visited the Co-op, bakery etc. It would be handy also to have a map of Salcombe with a plan of the best ways to walk down to the shops, harbour etc included in the Information Folder at the house. The basement entrance to No 1 is down a steep flight of steps, just outside No 2's front door. As there is no safety gate or chain for these steps, one has to be careful not to sidestep and inadvertently slip down them - this was especially so at night during our visit, because the overgrown bushes outside the front door obstructed the path and doorway - they were in need of pruning and the beds weeding

  : The property was clean and tidy and had what you need for your stay. Beds were comfy and kitchen well equipped.
  : The outside front garden area was a little over grown and in need of some care. Two of the blinds 1 in the lounge and 1 in the bedroom fell down ( with out our help) so hat to put them back myself which really wasnt my job since its been reported before and still hasnt been sorted . The car parking was well out the way and would have been far better if the directions was a lot better to find and when you did find it tight squeeze.

  : Location was good, it was clean, warm enough, kitchen was well equipped.
  : it would be even better if the blinds were more black out or newer. Sofas and cushions did look grubby but that didn't affect our stay. There was quite a leak in the guttering which made the rain water fall heavily onto the window which was noisy.
