"The apartment, was spacious, well furnished, well stocked ,with kitchen equipment, towels, hand wash in each bathroom, and kitchen."
A nice Sony TV, an assorted collection of DVDs, for all ages, comfortable sofas, and armchairs, made the evenings enjoyable ! The front windows, facing the balcony, are in need of a little planning, to enable them to be fully closed, it was difficult to engage the catches, which eventually will become detached, and are very draughty ! The electrical socket, in the middle bedroom, supplying power to the 'Wi-Fi', is loose on the wall, and the other, in the 'Dining Room', although secure to the wall, is missing a screw, to the 'Front Plate', making it loose, also, when operating the 'Glen' heater, the plug becomes hot ! These issues aside, we had a very happy time at 'Clarendon House', a mixture of, old rustic charm, with modern facilities ! Had the weather been warmer, evenings could have been spent, on the balcony, fully enjoying the setting sun ! But hey, one can't book the weather ! We would consider, booking again !

"Overall reasonable condition."
The steps inside the residence , could be equalised a lot better for easier access for the elderly. Also , we lost one night`s rest through bad alarm maintenance .

"On arrival no heating on therefore extremely chilly, was very temperamental all week!"
Ensuite window in double room didn't close properly so very cold in there too.not much pressure out of taps. Lounge curtains unable to close as the rail was very unstable, also windows sealed up with newspaper! Curtain in middle room hanging down.Touch light in twin room didn't work. Apart from bathroom mirrors only one other in the whole apartment which was over the fire place.Also think there could have been some sort of fire in the hearth, there was a gas log burner but this wasn't connected. All in all apart from the excellent location and cleanliness the whole apartment could do with alot of TLC. Not quite up to Sykes standard.

"Thank you for a lovely week in Dawlish."
The property is very spacious, ideal for couples with children. The decor is very pleasing, with many features, nice colour scheme and good quality furniture. Facilities were excellent, apart from the lack of a washing machine. The small steps were a little difficult to negotiate at times, but then it did state that at the beginning. Overall a very relaxed, clean and comfortable place to stay. Thank you.
Thank you. Glad you had a lovely stay. There is a launderette just a short distance up the road which is what we use when needed. Property Owner

The property
Tucked away in the charming seaside town of Dawlish in Devon, is this lovely quirky two-bedroom, first-floor apartment, Clarendon House.
Enjoying a prime location set along the southern coast and just moments away from Dawlish's Town green and glorious beach, Clarendon House is a fantastic dwelling for couples or a family of up to six.
Look forward to whipping up your loved one’s favourite meals in the well-equipped kitchen, ready to enjoy over a bottle of wine at the dining table which can be extended to seat six.
After dinner, retire to the sitting room, featuring a beautiful bay window, where you can relax on the plush seating in front of a much-loved film on the TV.
When sleep calls, choose from two well-appointed bedrooms to catch your rest in, a double with en-suite wet room and a twin with en-suite shower room.
There is also a light-filled day room with a daybed and trundle underneath, along with a balcony where you can savour your morning coffee and watch the world go by.
Explore your local surroundings, where you will find a wonderful selection of pubs, restaurants, cafes and takeaways including Chinese, Indian and fish and chips, ideal for those evening’s when you don’t fancy cooking!
The wildlife enthusiasts in your party are well-catered for with Dawlish’s famous Black Swans and wildfowl that can be spotted along the Dawlish Water whilst enjoying a leisurely walk.
Be sure to visit the Dawlish Town Beach, a mix of sand and shingle, where you can bathe on the sands and paddle the shores, before treating your loved ones to a well-deserved drink at The Cove Cafe or Marine Tavern.
Other attractions within the town include the small Dawlish Museum, Safari Adventure Golf, Coryton Cove and an amusement centre.
The sea front extends to the neighbouring resort of Dawlish Warren, where keen walkers can soak the breath-taking views along the Langstone Cliffs Walking Trail, whilst others can test out their swing at the Warren Golf Club, spend a day at Dawlish Warren Beach or enjoy the delights of Funder Park.
Teignmouth is easily reached, with its Grand Pier, Pavilions Teignmouth and the Teign Heritage Museum, or why not hop aboard the train at Dawlish to visit the city of Exeter with its imposing cathedral and Royal Albert Memorial Museum?
All this and more awaits with a stay at Clarendon House
Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
