  We had a lovely stay in Furneaux Hatch, it’s a very nice cosy little cottage.

  It’s a listed building and very well maintained throughout and very very clean. We were totally relaxed, as was our small dog. Everything you need is to hand and the owners (who are next door) had kindly left a small food basket and made us aware that if we needed anything at all we only needed to say… The cottage is right next to a lovely peaceful church and opposite a quiet cosy country pub, that serve great food, the staff in the pub are brilliant and gave a warm welcome and the dog got a treat and a blanket to sit on bye a log fire… Inside Furneaux Hatch, the ground floor shower room has been beautifully decorated, and along with the well fitted kitchen has under some floor heating.. The open plan living room is cosy with choice of lighting and two fires.. Just before our arrival new custom fitted shutter blinds had just been very well fitted, they look really nice and work so well complimenting the cottage.. Being a listed building I guess they are limited to what they can do but we thought that a very old lovely old cosy cottage has tastefully been merged with up to date facilities including good Wi-Fi.. Outside, with the cottage being quite high up it gives the opportunity to see some fantastic views all around, this gave an added pleasure to walking the dog down the lanes.. Although the cottage itself doesn’t have its own car parking space it was easy to find a space close bye…. 20 yards up the road is a post office/small store.. Right outside the cottage is a bus stop where No 3 bus stops on the hour linking Dartmouth to Plymouth and the towns between, so we left the car parked and went out on the bus taking in the fantastic views… Our weather was mixed but didn’t spoil anything. Thank you M for a fantastic week… We will be back……

  Unfortunately I would not stay here again.

  The cleanliness is to be questioned. The oven smoked due to the amount of grease on the bottom that hasn't been cleaned and the grill tray was covered in old grease. Photos taken as proof. The cutlery and crockery also had to be washed before use. To which I might add that the water temperature isn't hot enough for greasy dishes. Also the aluminium blinds in the living room look like they haven't been cleaned in a very long time. Photos taken as proof The toilet seat is missing one of the fittings and has been stuck with silicone. The only place to put the toilet roll is on top of the toilet or the side of the bath. As my husband turned to reach for the toilet roll, the seat moved. Photos as proof The 2 seat sofa has an odour of vomit, this was noticed when we sat to watch the TV. The double bedroom has an odour of stale sweat which was apparent when the door had been shut. There is a lack of privacy at gillys cottage as every resident passes by the window to get to the car park. Also in the ad for gillys it shows benches to sit outside, it doesn't explain that the ones for gillys are through the other side of the car park and down a steep grass bank. Due to the above issues we cut the stay short and left 3 days early.

  Hope Cove is a gorgeous little village and well worth a weeks visit.

  The accommodation itself is clean comfortable and although on the edge of the village, is only a short walk to the centre. Only one minor issue during the stay where the shower hose started leaking. It want a major leak and I emailed the people looking after the property making them aware so that they could get a replacement hose for the next occupants. The handyman however picked up on the email and was round with a replacement hose the following morning, excellent service. In fact the service with anyone linked to the company was very good, everyone was helpful and positive. The only downside was the specific location of the cottage and its privacy. The cottage is at the edge of a carpark servicing the various flats, and the windows look out onto the carpark. It means anyone coming and going to their cars look directly into the cottage's large windows. What I didn't realise was that there is a large field/garden at the back of the car park which is enclosed on three sides and ideal for anyone with a dog. Very handy and a good plus point

  Very comfortable, well equipped apartment with nice views (weather permitting!

  ). Comfortable beds and lovely shower in the en-suite to the main bedroom. Being ground floor and having the garden outside was extremely convenient for our dog - as was having a utility room. Slightly strange setup in the kitchen with glasses high up in a cupboard above the microwave (and some of which didn't seem very clean). Personally we are not great fans of leather sofas (slippery) but overall very well furnished with plenty of storage in the bedrooms. Not impressed with the lack of recycling options and a shame there was no washing up liquid or kitchen roll supplied - remedied next day via the village stores. Only one place to eat in the village - The Village Inn in the hotel - nice but not cheap so we mainly self-catered and had a Tesco delivery which worked quite well. Would happily stay again in good weather - nice dog friendly beaches but not a lot to do otherwise and the roads are very narrow so venturing out further becomes an experience!
