What our customers say about their holidays

  There were a few faults with the property the first being the sofa it was so uncomfortable to sit on and its definitely due an upgrade.

  When hanging a towel on a hand rail in the main bedroom’s bathroom one side of the towel rail fell off as it wasn't attached. The bathroom itself need an extractor fan as there seems to be a build up of condensation, slight damp which shows the cracks that are appearing on the ceiling. The fan lights in both bedrooms need to be replaced or maybe firmly attached to the ceiling as they move and spin erratically which didn't seem safe to leave on. We also had to reattach the fan pull chain as it came off when turning the fan off. The main dinning table was very unstable so we had to wedge some cardboard under the leg so it was sturdy to eat on. I think the main thing for us personally was not being able to close the curtains it was far to bright in the rooms however the blinds served a good purpose for privacy but come early morning when the light broke through we were woken earlier than expected. However there was positives to property to it was very clean baring the smell of dog odour in the lounge area (which us to be expected being a dog friendly accommodation) we had access to all of the amenities to cook, clean and wash our clothes if need be with a wide selection of kitchen utensils. The beds were comfortable, The property itself was spacious well decorated and it did feel homely. On a bonus the property its situated in the perfect location to Torquay town centre which is within walking distance and if you find those stairs which leads down to the middle of town centre it will shorten your journey considerably. Overall the holiday experience was a pleasant one and minor the the few things I stated above. i would recommend this accommodation to anyone who wants to be located in the perfect spot to have the peace and quiet during the night or day with many destinations that are only a short car/train journey away.

  All I can say is that someone needs to take up to date photos of Rutland cottage so that guests know exactly what is there. When I booked this property for 5 adults and 3 children I did so by looking at the photos provided. This was not the case concerning the hot tub as it actually turned out to be half the size that was suggested and furthermore the children could not use the downstairs games room as the handrail was broken and the floor was sodden with electric cables on the floor. Richard tried to mop the water up and empty the dehumidifier but even that wasn’t sufficient as the floor was completely wet through all week. Not what we paid for !!!!!!!! We all took photographs on our mobiles as proof if it is necessary. Needless to say this was a very expensive holiday in the first place but trying to keep children happy when they were promised a games room and were not able to proved extra costly for us. I really hope we get compensated for the distress this has caused. Richard himself was nice enough but booking with the pictures provided is not at all what we got !!!!!!!!!!!!!We are very unhappy and feel conned !!!!!

  Lovely property, the owner met us when we arrived and offered to show us around the property to explain how things worked then told us we could phone if we had any problems then left us to enjoy our holiday.

  Everything was very easy to use the kitchen was full and had everything we needed and the owner had even left us a pint of milk and tea bags to start us off which we were very grateful for. The house was very clean with big bedrooms and plenty of storage, the bathrooms were of a large size aswell. I felt the garden was very secure so I didn't have to worry about our dog escaping so he had a great time coming and going as he wanted. Everything was very easy from starting our holiday to leaving. The location is great, we was a 2 min walk from a bus stop to town or 5 mins from a shop. I would highly recommend this property.

  Fantastic week at Fonthill.

  The property is ideally located within easy walking distance of Torquay. The walk back uphill is more challenging but bus fares capped at £2.00 and very frequent make it easy to leave your car parked up. The property was clean and well equipped, the property owner was very obliging. A minor criticism would be the absence of a welcome folder containing details of local facilities and recommendations etc. but this in no way impaired our enjoyment of the week. This property would definitely be our number one choice should we be back in Torquay.

  The accomodation was very suitable for the party of 14 we booked it for. Age range was 17 to 84. The downstairs bedroom was very useful for the older members of our party. The host Richard was very pleasant and on hand whenever required. He took the time to tell us of local places of interest, eateries, sites to see etc. All facilities were up to standard. The accomodation was very close to beaches, eateries, local town, bus routes. The accomodation was clean and roomy enough for 14 people to enjoy each others company and their own space.
