Guests have enjoyed stays at Elizabethan House, praising its excellent size, comfortable living spaces, and convenient location close to the sailing academy, local pub, and Chesil beach. The property is well-equipped, with a decent kitchen and good-sized living room, and benefits from an enclosed rear garden. The local area offers much to explore, including hidden gems like Ope Cove.
The property was generally well-received, but there were issues with overbrimming bins and signs of a rodent infestation, which affects the cleanliness score.
The location is highly regarded for its proximity to the sailing academy, local amenities, and Chesil beach, making it ideal for guests interested in sailing and beach activities.
The house is described as roomy and comfortable, with numerous bedrooms and a cosy living room, contributing to a high comfort level for guests.
Facilities like the kitchen and bathrooms are appreciated, but the mention of rodent droppings suggests some maintenance issues, leading to a slightly reduced score.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness, so this category cannot be scored.
