We were particularly impressed with the bed linen. The Beachhut is small but very comfortable for two. We had some problems with the TV, but phoned Sykes who sorted it out.

Lovely welcome pack and overall clean. We had a wonderful time. Grandchildren loved it!â¦.However a few things need attention; there was various patches of black mould in shower around edges at the sealant. More importantly when using the shower the water did not drain away. Very slow and needs unblocking. My grandchildren had to stand in the dirty water coming back up from the drain during a âquick showerâ only. Needs sorting as could be a health issue. I did explain to the cleaner who said itâs a continuous problem because of drains on site that council need to sort. So needs sorting or at least use of a drain unblocker! Afterall we are paying for good useable facilities during our stay and could only have brief showers as risk of shower tray overflowing. The skirting board and wall by the doors behind the curtain in lounge/kitchen area showing signs of water damage with black staining and cracked paintwork . Furniture needs refreshing/updating ; tv unit and kitchen table look shabby with damage to tops. Right hand door to double doors on lounge area needs attention gets stuck and cannot be opened easily signs of rust on bottom of door. Other chalets nearby have been updated and do make this one stand out as needing refurb. Including smartening up outside. Once these areas are attended too will be perfect!

? Also the parking spot could do with trimming back you have difficulty getting out of the car without walking into grass and bushes. Parking has you know is very limited and the need to park as close as possible to the side is a must Thank you
