Claire
The location and cleanliness at number 7, Seascapes was great. However we were really disappointed with how the apartment was equipped. On arrival, there were a couple of tea bags. The dishwasher needed salt and rinse aid from the moment we got there, no surface cleaner or handwash for the kitchen no bleach or bathroom spray for any of the toilets/bathrooms or spare loo rolls. In the kitchen there was a set of 3 pans the largest and most useable was without a lid, making cooking for a family of 5 challenging, no clingfilm, foil, bin bags or basic condiments. In short there was nothing other than 3 small bars of soap left for guests in each toilet. This made for a more hasty and expensive shop than originally planned following a long drive. It would also have been really nice to have had a table that 5 people could sit at. For information, my youngest went flying after tripping on the raised, frayed carpet outside of the shared bathroom door. As I said we love the area, and the location is fabulous, beds comfy, but thought I would share the above as you asked for feedback.

The apartment was huge, comfy and very clean. Wonderful sea views. Stayed in March and weather was kind to us. Huge bonus having 2 car spaces in a gated car park. Town just a short walk. Lots of places to visit in the area. I must see is the local museum. Thanks for a wonderful stay once again.
