The fridge was dirty with a spillage, the coffee machine was very dirty in the milk frother, and I noticed it was dusty on the bedroom lights. The cleanliness was disappointing as I feel it wasnât cleaned properly, which is a shame as the property is beautiful but needs to be cleaned better.

Fortunately the very warm weather allowed us to have the adjoining door open and use the balcony to sit out and take in the fabulous views. Although the balcony area itself does need a good clean up. The kitchen bin from the previous guests had not been emptied and as previously highlighted the entrance hallway needs a new light bulb and the parked car belonging to the other property made access with luggage and shopping difficult. We only used the main bedroom which was very comfortable and en-suite which was very clean. The kitchen was well equipped. As mentioned the plus point for the property is the view over Salcombe.
