• "The property could do with the paintwork refreshing."

  Generally a good deep clean is needed. Lack of cerial bowls and wine glasses, otherwise plenty of pots and pans. Cooking facilities ok. Good position and parking.

• "No12 was such a pleasure to stay in and we were surprised by the lovely views of the Devon countryside we could enjoy."

  With the central location and safe underground parking added to the convenient lift direct from the basement to the 2nd floor this apartment was truly superb. I can honestly say that myself, my wife and our lovable dog Ludo will be looking forward to booking again in the very near future.

• "This is a perfectly positioned apartment in Dartmouth with one parking space."

  Close to ferry pubs and restaurants. Lovely to walk around and use as a base. The apartment is a good size for 4 people although there is an issue with the bathe it having a over bath shower only a hand held one! I think this would be number one on the improvement list as the only shower is in the en suite whichis not convenient at all. Lovely big bath sheets provided. Hairdryer provided but no washing up liquid or kitchen cleaner provided. Would be good if a list of things not provided could be on the booking site. Also black bin bags and recycling facilities should be provided as everything had to be put into one bag for disposal. Bedrooms are a good size and bedding clean and beds comfortable. Rug in living room needs a good scrub living area is a good size and kitchen facility was good for what we needed. We would book again as the position of the apartment is good even though there was a fair going on in the car park opposite but the apartment owner can't be responsible for that and it was only two nights left when we arrived.

• "* Pleasant and thorough communication with Coast & Country."

  * Overall stay was good with all necessities and amenities catered for. * Great central location and good sized underground allocated parking space (bonus especially in a heatwave and having a guaranteed parking space in a central location). * However, an SUV would find it difficult/ very tight entering Kings Quay at the entrance due to two cars parked at the entrance of the road. Judging by the state of the scuffs down the side of the parked cars, it seems like larger vehicles have struggled to get past. * A few improvements recommended as follows (but it wouldn’t prevent us staying again): * General interior update as looking dated. * Over bath standing shower would be a welcome addition in the main bathroom. * Mattress in one of the single beds (left) needs replacing as springs are felt through the mattress. * Main duvet needs replacing due to stains from previous users. * Washing machine/ dryer and dishwasher runs loud whilst on. Replacement with more modern appliances would eliminate this. * Perhaps having a hairdryer available for those who don’t bring their own. * Instructions for location of outdoor bin and key code would be helpful as this was not detailed in the welcome pack. I had to contact Coast & Country for this information. * Only downside was the squawking of the seagulls day and night, due to where they congregate. The windows of the flat offer no soundproofing when closed.

• "No complaints whatsoever about the property itself, but SPECIFIC information was sadly lacking, especially from the folder "supposedly" containing information about the property - which it most definitely did not - just generalisations of what was expected of you!"

  e.g: A short, simple note identifying where the manuals could be found for the oven, dishwasher etc., would have been useful. (Finally discovered purely by chance! They're in the drawer on the OUTSIDE of the kitchen worktop, next to the double opening windows/doors.) "Generalisation" about waste disposal at the end of the holiday, so had to visit the office to deternine what was necessary. (I was not alone here - met a lady when disposing of the black bin bag in the bin store, who had had exactly the same issues of determining what we were supposed to do.) And finally - WHY OH WHY are we expected to follow the detailed travel instructions from the M5 (or wherever,) to find the address of the office to collect keys? This needs to be at the very beginning of the final email instructions, and needs just a property number, postcode and perhaps a simple map identifying the location of the office related to the quay, M&S and the Newcomen Museum. (Sorry ladies, you're absolutely excellent at the "doing" things, but now and then - just on the odd occasion, you need the input of a man to deal with the "organising" things, as this is proof, if proof were needed, that both are needed to blend the details with the practicalities!)

  Although there isn’t a view of the river Dart from the accommodation it is only a few hundred feet from the river front and the gardens. The M&S food store is just around the corner which was very useful. Highly recommended.

  Clean & nicely furnished. Underground secure parking a huge bonus. Please replace the horribly heavy & far too thick duvet on the double bed - absolutely dreadful & very uncomfortable, & covered in stains.

  It was clean comfortable and had everything you needed for an enjoyable stay. We have stayed in Dartmouth House before and we loved it so much we booked again.

  A bonus having the underground parking space. The apartment had everything we needed and was spotless. A couple of small niggles - it wasn't clear where we had to put the rubbish at the end of our stay and we could have done with a thinner duvet! Luckily, there was a fan in the apartment to keep us cool at night.

  and the underground parking is such a bonus. All in all it was first class, a few little things that could be sorted out like the dressing table Lamp doesn’t work!

  .... Toaster is broken, only browns one side of the bread Dryer part of washing machine is broken, think the heating element might have gone, only one small clothes airer in the house not enough to get clothes dry. Washing up sponges were all used, not very hygienic we’ve always had new sponges provided in every holiday home we’ve stopped in. Reception on TV is very variable seems to be weather dependent, some days there were no channels at all

• "A couple of comments I would make: 1."

  I would prefer the opportunity for half a happy face ie 4.5 for most categories as nothing in this world is perfect, but this listing was generally very good. 2. Any small issues that we encountered were dealt with promptly and efficiently by the young lady in the on-site Country Cottages office. (Rebecca, I believe) 3. When we arrived at Dartmouth House, most of the channels on the tv were pixelating. I have to wonder how long this had been the case and whether the issue had been previously addressed and not resolved. I don’t know but after several days fussing, the technical problem was put right. 4. The unit would definitely benefit from a better quality tv as neither the sound or the picture is particularly good. Unfortunately, some of us actually look to the tv for entertainment…sad but true!

• "Found it really odd the way rubbish was not segregated into recyclables."

  This resulted in the red bin being full to overflowing. Think most residents will be used to recycling. Also really odd that you assumed that everybody would use the dishwasher. We don't. Finally car park not secure but guess out of your control. Waste food deposited by my car was quickly removed after my request. Also just to mention that mattresses might need replacing.
