Turnstone

Car parking facilities not brilliant

Nice little ground floor flat, excellent location, with a pretty good range of amenities in the property. We did a little bit of simple cooking and food preparation, and used the wifi, Scrabble, and had a shallow bath which we filled using the electric shower as we didn't discover the hot water switch until we actually wanted to have a bath, when it would probably have been too late!! So, a perfectly adequate 3-night stay, which we very much enjoyed.

The first thing which was a bit of a negative was the quality of the cutlery. On two occasions both of us caught the teaspoon on the edge of the coffee cup - difficult to explain but neither of us liked the handle design which had a chunky lip, causing us both to spill coffee granules. The other cutlery was 'cheap' and some had a looseness between the business end and the handle, rather than being solid metal and somewhat of a higher quality. Secondly there was no lampshade on the bedside light which meant it was harsh, I modified this with a brown paper bag so we got subdued light which was reasonably easy to switch off from lying in bed. Finally we tried to get hot water on the second evening as we wanted a bath, and as none was forthcoming, I looked in the notes and then found a message from the owner about how to switch it on in the cupboard in the bathroom - but by this time it was too late so we had a shallow bath using the shower to produce hot water. I used water from the kettle to wash plates and cups etc in the kitchen. None of these issues detracted significantly from an enjoyable stay. Thank you.

The location was excellent . Inside very nice and homely and comfortable .

water took a while to heat up . but once hot really nice..

The location was so close the sea front & esplanade, ideally situated for cafes, pubs, takeaways, Lidl’s, Tesco’s & other stores. The landlady, was polite & very helpful. The little flat was comfortable & everything you might need was available.

N/A

Clean, easy to collect keys, had everything we needed.

Location - a bit shabby, main road. Felt a bit insecure.

Location perfect for us Heaters heated up the rooms quickly, which was good as it was freezing weather at night

The water was scalding hot! The fridge wasn’t switched on, thought the light wasn’t working until food spoiled. Utensils/ cutlery needed to be washed prior to using Lighting very bright in the bedroom, lamp shades?

very quaint and clean. location was great for Lyme Regis

very small bed noisy seagulls early hours

The location

The heater worked work well

Where do i start , pulls up outside dirty dirty windows, hole in front door and a panel of second glazing missing , door canopy moldy , door frame full of dirt , first glance inside looks clean , but this is surface clean ,as soon as we moved a few things dust from under sofa bed started blowing , behind TV unit looked vile and the dirt had stuck to floor , moved footstool in bedroom dirt n mould , and the bathroom floor looked un mopped. First lie this is not a double bed it's a 3/4 quarter bed , an adults single , head board was lose and quilt so thin I checked it was in there.im disabled, whole in my tummy , i wear a brace all the time my only relief from this is to lie flat , bit hard in this bed with my 6ft3 16st hubby , if we knew the bed was this size we would never have booked. The condensation in this property is bad , when my friend found blankets for sofa bed they were damp. We thought the water on bathroom floor was from the 3 of us having a shower, no the loo was leaking , the water was trickling away under skirting board, the leak got worse then wouldn't flush , I informed the owner who said she would get a plumber out asp , I informed her we were using public loos at end of street , I informed her the loos had now closed and we didn't know what to do , she replied a plumber will be with you tomorrow morning, early morning my hubby had to relief himself 💩 in a carrier bag , I had to walk to tescos and beg the guard to let me in , I was in so much pain with my tummy, in the afternoon a plumber turns up , dosnt seem to know what he's doing , but offers to take dirty towels ??? And the plumber knew where the bin bags were ??? This gave me anxiety so I messaged the owner , she informed me the plumber was her husband , but there was illness in her family .. sad ... but what has this got to do with being sent a plumber ?? She lied to save penny's and left us with no loo !!

Property is middle of two building sites new Aldi being built next door and another site at rear I was woken up every morning of my stay with building noise not my idea of a quiet break.!!!

Lovely little holiday getaway, small but everything you really need in a place. Very cosy and comfortable, and well heated. Good kitchen and a clean bathroom. Great communication from owner

Rather small ones but the bed was rather narrow for a double, would probably be a bit thin for larger people. A couple of the lamps could do with shades but that is a real nitpick

Close to the sea and shops

Bed mainly and cutlery need replacing . Heating take a while to warm the rooms up.

Easy location to find

Lack of dog friendly facilities at Seaton

Really close to seafront and lovely decor.

The location was good for ease of getting to other places. However it wasn't as pretty as the neighbouring villages

While the apartment had everything in it that you would need for a short stay, there were some light bulbs not working. Also we had to contact the owner as there was no hot water when we arrived but this was soon remedied. As it was quite hot in the bedroom, we took the duvet out of the cover on the last night of our stay and just slept under the cover. We were very disappointed to see that the duvet was grubby and stained. I left a note to say that we weren't happy with this.

It was very clean and comfortable.
