The positive experiences suggest attention to cleanliness, but there is room for improvement.
The cottage's location is highly praised for its tranquillity and proximity to Devon and Cornwall attractions. It is described as peaceful and ideal for those seeking a quiet retreat. The remote setting is appreciated by many, although it requires driving for amenities.
Guests find the cottage comfortable, with large rooms, comfortable beds, and a warm atmosphere. The presence of multiple bathrooms and a dog-friendly garden adds to the comfort level. However, some guests mention steep stairs and a lack of stair gates for young children.
Facilities are generally well-received, with mentions of a well-equipped kitchen, smart TVs, and an enclosed garden. Some guests were pleased with extras like a spa bath. However, there are reports of maintenance issues such as a leaky tap and non-working spa bath jets.

The grout around the bath and shower needs redoing as there is mould in places. Kitchen tap was dripping - the owner was waiting on a plumber and did give advice on how to reduce the dripping. Towels were not very soft and they and the bedding was old fashioned as was the furniture - maybe needs updating a bit. No welcome pack/useful information pack which is a must in holiday accommodation now and no guest book to write comments in. A very peaceful setting with good access to main towns nearby and beaches further afield.
