  • "Fantastic apartment everything you ever need will be back"

  • "Very comfortable, well equipped apartment with nice views (weather permitting!"

    ). Comfortable beds and lovely shower in the en-suite to the main bedroom. Being ground floor and having the garden outside was extremely convenient for our dog - as was having a utility room. Slightly strange setup in the kitchen with glasses high up in a cupboard above the microwave (and some of which didn't seem very clean). Personally we are not great fans of leather sofas (slippery) but overall very well furnished with plenty of storage in the bedrooms. Not impressed with the lack of recycling options and a shame there was no washing up liquid or kitchen roll supplied - remedied next day via the village stores. Only one place to eat in the village - The Village Inn in the hotel - nice but not cheap so we mainly self-catered and had a Tesco delivery which worked quite well. Would happily stay again in good weather - nice dog friendly beaches but not a lot to do otherwise and the roads are very narrow so venturing out further becomes an experience!

  • "We loved the apartment."

    Well equipped, attractively furnished and with a lovely view across fields to rhe coast. Our west- facing outside area meant we could sit in afternoon and evening sunshine every day. Very quiet surroundings and excellent planting around the gardens. The best holiday home we have stayed in, and we have stayed in lots in Cornwall and Devon over the last 40 years!

    Thank you very much for your lovely feedback, it is so appreciated. The afternoon and evening sunshine was one reason why we were attracted to the apartment. We always hope that at least one summer week is left free for us to enjoy but it is lovely here whatever the season. Best wishes. Property Owner

  • "Property was well equipped and really lovely, beds super comfy, powerful showers, gardens beautifully maintained."

    Did have an issue where someone let themselves into our apartment whilst we were out and left the door open. I phoned Sykes and lodged a complaint. Apparently the cleaner had dropped the key off to the apartment and should have been dropped off at head office. Sykes assured me it wouldn’t happen again.

    Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We bought high quality mattresses when we bought the apartment this year and it is furnished as a second home, not a rental apartment. We are so sorry about the incident with the keys, of course it should not have happened. Thank you for letting us and Coast and Country know, we will try to make sure it does not happen again.

  • "Hive wasnt working so no hot water or heat on day 1 and 2 until electrician arrived as we couldnt find the overide button."

    The mats in the double bedroom kept getting caught under doors which was annoying. Cleaner didnt take away some rubbish in hall and a poo bag was left on the terrace. Coffee machine too complicated, a nespresso style would have been better. Generally the apartment and location were great and I would consider returning.

  • "Excellent property very comfortable."

    It is a short walk to the coastal path along the road. The property is really in South Milton so the name is slightly misleading! It isn’t on Thurlestone beach. However It is in a great position and would love to stay there again!
