"The house is in an ideal position for us and our family."
With two free parking spaces.
There’s ample room for a large family, the kitchen is well stocked with a washing machine and dishwasher. There’s a small courtyard with plenty of space to hang out our washing.
There was a small issue before were arrived, which Sophie alerted us to and arranged for contractors to sort out speedily.
We’ve stayed here before and can thoroughly recommend it for anyone wanting to stay in Exmouth. The shops and sea front are all within a five minute stroll and we had a great time there.
Thank you very much for your kind comments and for being so understanding. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed our house and Exmouth and hope to be able to welcome you again some time soon.

"We had a lovely stay in this three storey house."
It’s close to the beach and the town centre, so we didn’t need to use our car to visit places, which is always a bonus when on holiday. The three storeys gave us the space we need as a family, and the dining area is ample so that we could all eat together. This is our second visit to this property and we will definitely be back.
Thank you very much for your lovely comments. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and hope to welcome you again some time soon.

"We had a really nice time staying at Carton Mews."
It was perfectly located with it being just a short walk to the beach and train station. The house was well equipped with everything we needed and having the parking space was very useful. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

"Lovely property in a very good location."
Minor points, -
A teapot would be useful
Better pillows ALL with protectors and check condition of duvets
Blackout blinds/curtains. The current blinds are far too flimsy.
This applies to all holiday lets :-
Early leave time + a long list of to-do chores is ridiculous. Leaves bad taste.
Thank you very much for your feedback, it is always useful and appreciated. We were pleased to hear that overall you enjoyed your stay. In answer to your suggestions, we did fit curtains to two of the bedrooms and are working on the third. We do have a selection of different pillows (soft, medium etc) available, there is a teapot in one of the kitchen cabinets and our care taker, if at all possible, always tries to accommodate guests wishing earlier check in or later check outs. We hope this was helpful.

Thank you very much for your lovely comments and feedback. We have fitted curtains to the two first floor bedrooms and working on the third, which is a bit more challenging due to the shape of the window. We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay and hope to welcome you again some time soon.

"We were sad to leave this house, we could have easily moved in."
It was a 10-15 minute walk to the beach or the town although there is a slope. We have bus passes and the bus stops were nearby with a frequent service to the town and on to Exeter. The house was perfect for us, bright and clean. The kitchen was particularly well equipped and the lounge roomy and comfortable. The bedrooms were light and airy with comfortable beds and lovely, clean bedding. The bathrooms were fresh and clean.The central heating worked well. There was good broadband, I measured 57 Mbps. I think it was relatively recent. There was a nice welcome pack of bread, butter and milk as well. Sophie, who looks after the house, was easy to reach by messaging and did a very good job of preparing it. We would recommend this place but bear in mind it is on three floors and so has two flights of stairs each with a double turn. Just turned 80 we had no problems though. There are two allocated parking spaces within the enclosed front which has easy access. It is on busy roundabout but is quiet at night.
Thank you very much for your lovely comments. We are very pleased that you enjoyed the house and Exmouth. Hopefully we will be able to welcome you again sometime soon.

"2 Carlton Mews is a well situated property for easy access to the shops , cafes & beach."
It was very kind & welcoming to find some delicious bread & butter plus milk for a cup of tea after travelling. The beds were very comfortable as were the sofas .All instructions needed were clear & concise - only slight niggle was that we couldn't find spare bin bags for use after "bin day" but it was no problem as we bought some from the excellent Market Hall. The only downside is the traffic & especially the "little dears" that like to act like idiots very very late at night. However , there is nothing that can be done about that & you soon get used to it . ( perhaps double glazing might help to cut down the noise but that is expensive ). All in all it is an excellent property & we have stayed here before & hope to be back again next year.
Thank you very much for your kind comments. We will put "extra bin bags" on the check list for our caretaker.
We hope to be able to welcome you again next year.

"Very comfortable house, quick response from the person managing the place when extra towels requested."
Two comments which appear to be reoccurring.
Traffic noise is really bad. Not the best location for a holiday.
Blinds in bedrooms are pathetic. Needs black out curtains. Also for the heat. It was very hot and they don't keep the house cool.
Thank you very much for your comments. Unfortunately there is not much we can do about the traffic noise, but we did take your suggestion of black out curtains on board.
We are also intending to provide some fans for the summer months.

"This is a very nice house close to the sea but it is by a roundabout with traffic noise and street lighting."
Black out blinds in the front bedroom would be good and more instructions on using the televisions, especially the one in the kitchen which comes up as 'Not programmed'. Our grandson found bbc sounds and iplayer but more instruction would be helpful.
Thank you for your feedback. We will consider putting up black-out blinds in the front bedroom, during our next visit. There should be detailed instructions in the information folder in regard to the TV, we will check and confirm this.

"The furniture in the house is tired and looks like the majority was purchased from a jumble sale."
The springs / support in the sofa's had totally gone and was uncomfortable to sit on.The house was on a really noisy road which meant it was impossible to sleep with the windows open. Exmouth itself is great, sadly the house is not!

"The property is located in a very convenient position just a short stroll to the beach and the town."
The beach is lovely and Sandy and exceeded our expectations. The house was modern and clean but all the beds were uncomfortable and new mattresses are required. Additionally the duvets are bulky and uncomfortable. It would also have been very useful to have a tumble dryer and for the back courtyard to have been cleared of the overhanging trees. The neighbours were very friendly.

"Accommodation was good."
With some changes it could be excellent:
* TV in kitchen/diner is not connected to any signal, so is a waste of space.
* Bed was hard and very creaky. Hard to change position without waking partner.
* Neighbour's plants are overhanging the fence and making the already small patio area harder to enjoy.
* we were their for a fortnight. Each Wednesday evening we put the bins out as per instructions. Recycling bins were emptied on the middle Thursday, but not the main bin.
On the 2nd Thursday nothing was emptied. I appreciate this is a problem with the council rather than the property, but if I don't mention it the owner won't know and therefore be able to address the issue with the council.
Other than these small niggles everything was fine with the accommodation and we had a good time. The location is great, with the beach, cafes and restaurants all within easy walking distance, and brunch from "Crusty Cobs" became a holiday tradition.

It is very close to the esplanade and has a slight incline leading to the sea front which was very manageable for older people.
The resort is very clean with little litter and there are well kept gardens close by. A visit to the small museum is worthwhile..costs £1! Staff there working very hard to keep it open, the Gent that was eager to share his knowledge with us was very interesting and charming.
