"Lovely comfortable cottage with parking space."
Plenty of room, good quality fittings & equipment. Hot water & effective heating. Only downsides . No instructions for the TV system and previous occupiers had put on parental controls. The clear perspex small table in the middle of the lounge is too big and a potential hazard. Maybe a small bundle of likes of salt, pepper , foil etc could be supplied.

"Good - Fabulous location - Having a parking space was great - really helped."
- Lovely and clean - Comfy beds - Well equipped kitchen, with a few instant coffee and tea and uht milk sachets on arrival. - Instant response from team when we had a query. Not so Good - No kitchen basics (eg salt and pepper) so don’t forget them. There were a few dishwasher tabs is all. - A number of passive aggressive notices telling you what to do when leaving. (Strip beds and put in linen bags, vacuum any dog hair, bag up towels, leave it clean, empty dishwasher etc). And to be GONE BY 10am. It was a little excessive. I don’t know if people generally leave the house in a state, but I’ve never been harangued in advance in quite the same way. - Hot water ran out every day - and we don’t take long showers (and were only 4 people!) . I’m not sure if the boiler just needs to be on longer? It didn’t seem to reheat after morning showers, so when swimming and wanting a shower later, it was an issue. Note - we didn’t complain at the time, they may have been able to adjust something. But be aware! - I gave 5 stars as it really is a lovely house, even with the above.

"What a lovely, clean, tidy, comfortable and spacious house it is and in a great location to Lynton’s amenities."
I did request more than once for the zip/link beds to be separated but to no avail. Fortunately I slept on the good-sized bunk bed although it was supposedly be for children. I could feel the springs from the middle of the mattress so slept on top of one duvet while putting the other over me which was fine. We couldn’t get terrestrial TV only digital which requested a password which we didn’t have. There were no instructions either. The design of the legs on the coffee table was considered dangerous in case we tripped over so we moved it out of the way. There were no egg cups so I improvised using an attachment from the food processor.

"21 Cross Street is a lovely house, the only small issue we had with cleanliness was some of the mugs hadn't been washed up properly, apart from that the house was spotless."
This was our 1st short-term property rental and whilst lovely, having to clean the house top to bottom and get out by 10am was a rush.

"An excellent, clean, tidy and efficient property with all facilities in tip top order."
Adequate parking beside the cottage and occasional street parking for a second vehicle plus huge car park in the same street. Shops just 3 minutes walk. We really enjoyed our stay.
-
"Very good location, cottage is very well equipped including bluetooth sound speaker great to play music in background."
Has comfortable room for up to 6 adults and bunks for 2 children. Parking space a bonus as payment for parking elsewhere can add up. A great place in lovely area enjoyed our stay and would use again if in the area

"Pros: Great location near amenities."
Spacious property, very comfortable beds, clean, good shower in main bathroom. Kitchen quite well equipped. Cons: Kitchen, downstairs toilet and cupboard in second bedroom smelt badly of damp. Could not open patio door in second bedroom as it is loose in frame so could not freshen bedroom or go onto flat roof where washing line located. Parking at side of house difficult to back onto because of parked cars in street and also because it is a narrow shared drive. Nowhere to put toiletries in ensuite or main bathroom. No shaving mirror. Plug in kitchen sink faulty so could not fill sink with water to wash up. Gate in back garden locked so no way out that way. No spare front door key so if one person left house with key and locked front door, other person trapped in house. Loft bedroom very hot and ceiling low so did not use. Settees very uncomfortable.

"Lovely cottage in a beautiful location."
One thing that would be helpful, please invest in a clothes airer and a laundry basket. Whilst it was fab having the tumble dryer, some items of clothing cannot be tumble dried. Unfortunately, we had a few rainy days so we were not able to peg out.

"We had a lovely stay at the cottage again this weekend."
It was spotlessly clean and warm and welcoming when we arrived as the heating was on ready for us. We hope to return later in the year!
-
"We had a wonderful stay in the cottage for a long weekend."
It was immaculately clean, the owners have provided everything you need for a home from home break. The extra touches of tea/coffee/biscuits some kindling and logs to start off the log burner. A cupboard full of games and puzzles for extra entertainment. The central location is great as it is an easy walk to shops, pub, railway and footpaths. We hope to return in the spring!!

Step into the neighbouring kitchen and find excellent amenities for your self-catering holiday; rustle up your favourite dishes using the range cooker and electric hob, stock up the American-style fridge/freezer and whip up a round of coffees with the coffee machine to energise your day.
At the end of the day relax with a glass of chilled wine courtesy of the temperature controlled wine fridge.

When the day comes to a close, the cottage hosts four fantastic bedrooms for guests to rest their heads; The first floor has one double room , one room with a super king zip & link and one bunkbed room (please note the two sets of zip & link beds are 6ft 6 long), all of which have storage space for your belongings and TVs to watch your favourite shows under the sheets.
Two guests get extra privacy in the lovely second-floor attic space, with a super-king-size zip/link and en-suite shower room to rinse off the day.
All guests can run a bubble bath or take a quick rinse with the shower over in the contemporary family bathroom, complete with a heated towel rail for added comfort after long treks along the coast.
