Guests say

The Loft in Devon is a well-received holiday rental, praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and friendly owners. Guests appreciate the modern amenities, tasteful decoration, and the property's proximity to local attractions. The well-maintained garden and the inclusion of a dog-friendly policy add to the charm. Some minor suggestions for improvement are noted, but overall, guests seem to have had enjoyable stays.

Guests consistently mention the property's cleanliness, describing it as 'very clean', 'tidy', and 'well maintained'. This indicates a high standard of cleanliness throughout the property.

The location is generally praised for being quiet and convenient, with easy access to local tourist attractions, coastal villages, and walks. However, there is a mention of a cockerel nearby, which may affect those sensitive to noise.

Reviewers find The Loft comfortable, noting the comfortable beds, relaxing environment, and the overall cosiness of the property. The presence of underfloor heating and a well-equipped kitchen contribute to the comfort level.

The facilities are generally well-received, with mentions of modern equipment and a heated pool. However, there are suggestions for additional kitchenware, clearer instructions for appliances, and improvements in recycling facilities.

While guests mention a warm welcome and some appreciated gestures like a bottle of wine, there is not enough consistent information about thoughtful touches or gifts to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such gestures, while appreciated, are not guaranteed.

  • Saskia

    Although clean and comfortable, we missed a few basic essentials in the kitchen, like dishwashing liquid, a teatowel +dishcloth, scissors etc. A manuel for the oven would have been handy. And a few extra cups and plates. Wifi was fast and access to Netflix and Prime appreciated. It has no private outside seating area. The pictures on the website are from the owners patio. You are welcome to use the owners chairs & garden though.

  • Julie

    Friendly owners. It’s a handy location for the coast path between Plymouth and bigbury. Not so many great beaches on this stretch although Westcombe and Mothercombe were stunning. Some books of local walks and map provided. Also close to Dartmoor. Would suit anyone working in Plymouth. There is a cockerel that kicks off at 6.30am so bring earplugs. The key kept getting stuck in the lock so had to leave it unlocked - on-site builder said lock needs replacing. Would welcome a tin opener, clothes airer for swimming gear/wet waterproofs and a microwave please.

  • Geoff

    Family who lived on site approachable, helpful, friendly and all of them a delight to speak to. Location good for village amenities and bus to Plymouth.
