Property was spotlessly clean and very comfortable, great location for local shops and seafront ,and very well equipped kitchen
Only thing I would change would be the shower situation,current set up a little underwhelming

Self catering. Location quiet. Beds very comfortable although you have to crawl into the bunk beds as there is a wall both sides. Fun for children but a bit trickier for someone of my age (71). We were left 2 bottles of milk & a packet of biscuits which were much appreciated. The kitchen is well equipped & the house was clean.
We had to empty lots of towels & sheets from the airing cupboard in order to get to the boiler to switch it to on for the hot water as instructed. There were a pair of knickers left in the cupboard in the back bedroom which was not a pleasant find. It would have been nice in the summerhouse if it was not covered in cobwebs etc.

The location was fine, close to the shops & within walking distance of the beach & seafront. The garden area was a real bonus given the good weather & the need of a 2 year old for outdoor play space. The kitchen is well equipped ( needs a pair of scissors please!) & the whole house felt welcoming & relatively comfortable for 3 adults & a child.
We felt the information about the property could do with some updating & more clarity, especially about the open sided staircase & the self locking front door ( I did lock us out by accident as had no previous dealings with such a locking mechanism! Luckily the host was superb at coming to the rescue!).
The fold out bed was very necessary but needs a single quilt & there should be more detailed information about the double bunk arrangement as the top section has limited use due to access & head height issues.
The smell from the rubbish containers at the side of the driveway was rather off putting but it is difficult to suggest an alternative given the dependency of collection days & the exceptionally hot weather at the time.

The cottage was close to the shops and within walking distance to Frinton beach, about a mile where we had a beach hut for the weekend.
The road and area was quiet and the cottage was spacious with everything you need.
Lovely outside area, which unfortunatly we did not use but there was a private garden with bbq area and summer house at the bottom.
Cost was worth everything
I had older parents with me who felt the stairs were quite steep. They felt that there should be a banister to both sides of the stairs. As long as you take them slow, its fine. This is why I rated it 9 out of 10.

Had everything we needed - very well equipped.
It was a little dark. We had bright sun outside but had to put a light on inside. The positive was that it kept nice and cool in the heat outside.

Good location. A great base for our weekend. Everything was in walking distance.
Well equipped kitchen.
Everything was clean and tidy.
Very much served its purpose for the weekend.
The front drive of the property was over grown and rubbish overflowing in the bins.
The back garden was also very over grown and not useable, apart from the decking area.
The bathroom was a bit tired.
Need new tea towels as looked a bit old.
7.0 / 10.0
Great location, modern, off street parking and capacity to sleep more people if required.
It was very cold downstairs - imagine maybe it hadn’t been let out for a while? - which necessitated coats staying on but lovely and warm upstairs. By the time we left it had warmed up.

We really wanted to spend a bit of time by the sea, and this was perfect. Under a mile from the beach, and minutes from the station, which if you're travelling by train with a lot of bags is fantastic! It's a gorgeous house, beautifully furnished and decorated and even my dog felt right at home as soon as we got there.
We had a small issue getting hot water the second night and the host had a plumber out at 9 the following morning and got it fixed. I could not recommend this place more.
4.0 / 10.0
The location was good. Easy access to Frinton
A broken double bed where the slats where broken rendered the bed unsafe & unable to use on the first night. The temp solution in place during our stay lasted until our 4th night . So very poor sleep both nights. The host seemed uninterested in our situation & slow to respond. This impacted on our holiday plans.Efforts to arrange some recompense for our experience was rebuffed. Additionally the bathroom was grubby & old.The garden was overgrown with no maintenance. Our perception is that there is a complacency in providing high quality or a good service as Frinton on Sea,as a beautiful place to visit, has a captive audience.

Fully equipped. There was everything we needed. Tea bags, USB cable, frying oil, portable speaker, milk in the fridge, ball pump, etc. The list goes on.....
Shower pressure low at times.

The TV situation is not good. Need to look into getting mainstream channels for all ages. We travelled with elderly and could only watch Apps via smart tv.
Small sofa is tight for 2 people to be comfortable.

Nice house with parking, enclosed garden and all the facilities you need. Walking into the town or the sea was only about 15-20 mins which is perfect
Not sure there was much...although would recommend brining sleepers as floor can be chilly.
