"Thank you for a lovely few days, we've been really lucky to use 1 Camperdown as a base for us to explore Devon."

The house was wonderfully equipped and has made a holiday with a toddler and a beagle really easy. Thanks again!

"Wow! what a fab week in a perfect bolthole."

Everything thought of, super!! Well done. Super comfy flat and the outside area is great for my dogs. Thank you for letting us stay and for the doggie treat, fizz and biscuits. North Sands and Burgh Island were fabulous and defiantly recommend the food at The Winking Prawn North Sands and Pilchard Inn, lovely fish and chips at Burgh. Best week weather wise absolutely made the holiday and coming back to the flat! Great Time!

Thank you for your kind comments. We are so pleased to hear you had a wonderful time at Camperdown Lodge and enjoyed everything Salcombe has to offer. Property Owner

"Positives: Well-equipped kitchen Local books eg walks very helpful Outside back garden Parking at accommodation Not-so-goods: Noise from upstairs flat."

Kitchen and bathrooms could do with a deep clean-en suite shower in particular. Both showers can’t be used at the same time-en suite water went very cold. Smell of dog in front room-not very bad but it can be smelt. This was our fault as at the time of booking we didn’t realise that the accommodation was dog friendly. No objections to dogs but would rather not smell them. Unnecessary rubbish dumped around the parking area-wasn’t a great 1st impression. Think listing should state very steep walk from Salcombe-we were ok with that but it wouldn’t suit some.

Many thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We do hope you had a lovely stay at 1 Camperdown Lodge. We can only apologise that you had a few issues during your stay. Please know that if you had let us know during your stay, we would have rectified all that we could. Your comments will be passed on to the relevant people to ensure these areas are focused on. As Salcombe is situated on an Estuary in an area of outstanding natural beauty, the nature of the land is elevated. Thank you again for your feedback. Property Owner

"Hi, we had a lovely stay but just a few minor issues."

Sink was blocked in both bathrooms and the parking situation wasn’t good. You have stated there is allocated parking for the house but we had to park on double yellow lines throughout the whole week. Cars were not parked correctly and didn’t move the whole week so we were forced to park on doubleyellows all the time. Not great on holiday worrying about getting parking tickets but the flat itself and where it’s situated was perfect.

We are so pleased to read you enjoyed your stay at 1 Camperdown Lodge, although we were disappointed to read you had issues with the sinks in the bathrooms. If we had been made aware of the issues, we would have been able to rectify the problems during your stay. It is also disappointing to read you had issues with parking as the property does have one allocated space located to the side of the property, again if you had let us know the owner would have been able to rectify the issue as you certainly shouldn't be parking on double yellow lines throughout your stay when a space is provided for the property. We hope you still enjoyed your stay and hope to welcome you back to the area again soon. Property Owner

"Not the cleanest of properties but not bad enough for us to not stay for the period we booked."

Location was fine as was the parking. The double bed could do with replacing and although we didn’t use the second bedroom the headboards on the single beds were not good, quite dirty.

Many thanks for your feedback. We are surprised to hear the property was not cleaned to its usual high standard for your arrival, we have not had a comment of this nature in the past. Please know that if you had made us aware of the situation we would have sent someone immediately to rectify it. We can only apologise that the bed was not to your taste, as I’m sure you can appreciate, comfort is very much down to the individual. We do hope you had a lovely holiday and enjoyed all Salcombe has to offer. Property Owner

"We enjoyed our stay in the very clean and tidy flat, so easy to walk into town and to North Sands."

The garden was perfect four dogs, also being close to the playing fields, so dogs had morning and evening walks. Will stay again.

"Brilliant stay at 1 Camperdown lodge, really cozy, homely feel."

Hosts kindly gifted us a bottle of Prosecco and dog treat for our puppy on arrival. Really comfy beds and great amenities, would stay again. Minor issue with iron, small crack at the base which causes water to seep out as your ironing but all in all amazing stay!!

Many thanks for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed our gifts and found your stay comfortable and cosy. Thank you for bringing the problem with the iron to our attention. We will make sure that is replaced as soon as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. We very much hope you will stay with us again. Property Owner

"The en-suite shower room was freezing cold and constantly running with condensation."

The twin bedroom was listed as twin beds where in fact they were not, the beds were far to narrow and short for an adult, if you turned over in the night you fell out of bed plus they were on casters so they moved too easily. This room is plenty big enough for normal size beds. Overall the flat was clean and comfortable and the garden was good for the dogs. It was just a shame about the two points above.

Many thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are thrilled you loved the property, we can only apologise that the en-suite was cold, please know that if you had let us know during your stay we would have immediately come and rectified any issue. We are sorry your found the twin beds to be too small, we do advise on the website when booking that they are suited to children, however we have been in contact with the owner how has advised these beds will be replaced for full size in the new year. We do hope that you had a lovely holiday and enjoyed all Salcombe has to offer. Property Owner
