Guests generally found the property clean and well-maintained, with only a couple of minor cleanliness issues mentioned, such as cobwebs and dusty tables. These appear to be isolated incidents rather than a trend.
The property's location is consistently praised for being central, close to the high street and beach, yet quiet enough for a comfortable stay.
The property is described as comfortable, with special mentions of the quality of towels and bedding. However, there are comments about the stability of a temporary step and creaky bunk beds, slightly affecting the score.
The property is well-equipped, especially the kitchen, but guests have made suggestions for improvements such as grab handles in showers, a kitchen hop-up, and a Velux window opener. There is also mention of ongoing building work next door.
While guests appreciated the provision of cleaning products and a complimentary bottle of wine, there are not enough reviews mentioning gifts to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such gifts are not guaranteed.

The town is steeped in history and has become a wonderful town for shopping with a good mixture of independent and chain stores to enjoy. The town also offers a good selection of pubs and restaurants or why not buy some freshly caught fish from the huts on the seafront and cook up your own feast at home.

We tried to call the emergency no but NO ONE called us back -really disappointing. Also becareful where you park as we got a parking ticket. The actual accomodation is brilliant and we loved it. There is building next door but didn't bother us. Only thing would be to put blinds in the lounge to have more privacy. Thanks
