  • Vivienne

    The roof garden was good The beds were clean and comfortable but the whole house needs a good cleaning from top to bottom . The backyard was filthy and there was old dog faeces near the barbecue we did not go out there . It did not spoil our week but I would not go there again .

  • John

    Back yard very damp green mould, moss and snails. No yellow bin liners. Garage height could not accommodate car with roof box. Garage very tight to manoeuvre car into when neighbours vehicles parked on road. Steep narrow road adjoining premises. Parked on road about 1/4 mile away all of the time. Could not get dish washer to work. Large kitchen but no washing machine or dryer. Front bedrooms some of the drawer units had a damp smell so could not be used. That said house was clean and generally well appointed with WiFi and USB connections in every room including smart TVs. Roof garden was great, dog friendly house, neighbours also friendly if not a little OCD about their parking areas. Beautiful town great beach unfortunately no dogs allowed on main beach except for a small rocky cove. Property owner has done about as much as they reasonably can given the geography and limited footprint of where the house is located

    Very well kept. Nowhere other than roof terrace to sit down to eat as a family. Steep walk down to town like much of Looe but all via road/path not steps so easier to do for some people. Good communication from the owners too.
