It was however not good value for money. On arrival the barbeque was thilthy. The clothes airer was broken. There was a washing line but no usable pegs. The double room door was v tight and someone got stuck inside and was unable to get out. There was a damp smell in the ensuite bathroom, first floor. There was also a broken door handle to bunk bedroom, leaky shower door and broken toilet brush top floor bathroom. This room also had cobwebs and dead insects.There was a lack of small things like dishwasher salt, rinse aid, salt and pepper, cleaning materials, washing up brush.The garden had 3 bins full of rubbish, one of which had been knocked over so there was rubbish all over the car park. I did speak to Coast and Country on arrival and went into the office on the Monday morning. The rubbish was cleared on day 3 but nothing else was fixed until the Thursday night just before we left. We did have an enjoyable holiday but it could have been better.

After coming to Salcombe for over 30 years this is the first time we stayed at Batson Creek. We loved it. A couple of minor gripes, one of the ensuite sinks leaked , the 3 dustbins were all full and hadn't been emptied for at least 2 weeks and a broken front window, all reported to sykes first day but nothing was done. However this didnt spoil our holiday. Just suprised as previous years sykes have been very responsive.

Some people mentioned not enough hot water but, as a group of 7 adults, we had no problems at all. I need to say that, there had apparently been staffing issues and therefore the property had not been properly cleaned. I only mention this, not to deter anyone from booking, but to say that the management company did their very best to rectify the situation, were upfront with us as to why it had happened and came to see us to apologize in person. We would definitely go back.
