Property very clean (cleaners had done a great job) and bright and fairly well equipped. Unfortunately, both upstairs sinks were almost totally blocked and we needed to buy sink un-blockers to clear them. The battery had gone on the kitchen/diner clock. One of the curtains in the lounge had one ring off the rail and both curtains dragged substantially on the floor.

We love it's central position and easy access to the seafront and town. We always feel at home the minute we walk in and the property is clean and presentable with everything we need for a perfect break away, and it's dog friendly. We certainly hope to stay again soon.

So first time we used the bath we had a a flood through the ceiling. This blew the electricity upstairs and also the sockets in part of the kitchen so we couldnât use kettle or anything in kitchen. Fridge was full of food and switched off for 14 hours. The plumber and electrician who came were lovely but didnât arrive until more than 12 hours after the event. I rang emergency number which initially was answered in 20 minutes. My further phone call to say about the fridge being off wasnât responded to at all. I stayed up until midnight waiting.
