  I'm very sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your stay at my holiday apartment which I pride myself on offering a lovely holiday experience to guests.

  This is reflected in the wonderful feedback this property typically receives and the return visits of many guests . It can be seen clearly on the property images how elevated this property is, which benefits the fantastic views that guests frequently comment on. I'm sorry if this was not what you were looking for on your stay. The steeper steps lower down have gravel embedded in the surface to offer a good grip to minimize any slip risk, even in wet weather. The photographs were taken by Sykes and are very representative of the kitchen, which is a small area but offers the essentials as described on the listing. ~ as are the bedrooms and bathroom. I cleaned the property myself to the highest standard and I'm very surprised to hear you had any issues of this nature when you arrived as I had given it personal attention shortly before. Had you mentioned any of these problems at the time, either to myself - or Sykes I would have attended immediately to put things right. As you can see from the large number of feedback for this property - cleanliness is a priority and not something guests have made any complaints upon in the past ~ quite the reverse The flowers were fresh for your booking, as was the water they were in. The plug holes are treated between every booking to ensure they are clear. I would like to offer an apology as you did find the coffee sachets provided to be out of date, these have been removed and I will keep an eye on this in future to ensure this doesn't happen again ~ the tea and sugar are replenished after each visit. I'm sorry The Knoll was not the right holiday home for you, however I'm pleased it has not served to put you off visiting the very beautiful Looe in future.

  Darley Cottage is a very quaint and entertainingly quirky. My father of 92yrs was easily able to negotiate the first flight of stairs to the bathroom and first floor bedroom. He is quite mobile, but can't walk at any real pace or cover long distances. We had a mobility scooter that we could dismantle easily and alo put back together in five mins flat. This enabled us to park the car in Millpool carpark and walk to the property where the scoot was easily stored in the main lounge are. We were only two in number, so four and five people staying at this property may find this storage of a M/S a bit too constrictive to available space. I think better instructions could be left for the use of the multi function cooker, as I took a little while working out how to choose the right function for operations. Out of season was really enjoyable at Darley Cottage, but I think high season would mean you would have to like live music from the public house on the corner of the street at weekends. The parking of a car isn't ideal, but can be worked around, even in poor weather conditions. On the whole, I would have to say that my father and I really enjoyed a comfortable stay at Darley Cottage, so thank you for ease of access and leaving arrangements.

  This is a beautiful flat in a wonderful location in East Looe, with stunning views both along the coast and down the river estuary. We honestly think these are the best views we have had in any property in the West Country so far. The flat is fitted to a very high standard and there is everything you could need for a self-catering escape. The bed is very comfortable and the kitchen is well-equipped. A chalk board full of useful tips and ideas for what to do in the region is provided which is a nice touch. The flat is also pretty much on the South West Coast Path. We thought it represented excellent value for money. Finding parking in Looe can be a challenge and to drop your kit off you need to be creative - we found a residential road that had a footpath to the back of the property of Hannafore; alternatively there is a short, very steep, pedestrian hill leading to the back of the property from behind the fire station. We would definitely stay here again if we were heading back to Looe.

  Spotlessly clean.

  However the property seemed to be designed for good display photos leaving no room for our things. Every shelf there was had picture perfect stuff on it. Although the ‘kitchen’ was tiny it was well equipped and the only cleaning utensils I could find was a dust pan and brush but that was enough to sweep the kitchen floor with. The main issue was the heating and hot water. Although Maggie tried to stress we only have to ask to have the heating/hot water on outside her 3 hour morning and 3 hour evening regime I personally found the idea of doing that very uncomfortable. Therefore we were cold early morning and cold after 9pm, as well as having to wash in tepid water if out of the allotted timings. Overall the flat was show room quality, definitely quirky but the surroundings fairly grim and perhaps the very steep hills to walk into town should be stressed in the on line blurb.

  A lovely comfortable apartment.

  Pleasant little balcony with great views looking up the West Looe River; we saw some stunning sunsets from there. Beds were comfortable and bathroom was fine, with modern spacious shower. Some points for prospective clients to note: East Looe is a 5-10 minutes walk, but it's down a very, very steep hill with many steps. Getting back would be a real struggle for anyone who's a bit unfit or with mobility problems. But it is only £4 for a taxi and we understand there's also a bus, though rather irregular. There are also steep narrow steps down to the front door. The parking spot is OK, but a bit small/awkward if you have anything larger than a mid-sized car. The kitchen is tiny and lacks an oven. The hob is only two rings. Don't expect to be able to cook a family meal there - unless you're a real wizard.
