  The apartment is very modern, and most of the facilities are excellent.

  It is well situated in Ilfracombe, being central with views over Capstone Hill. However, there were some matters that need attention, and our comments are as follows: 1. We could not get Alexa to work at all 2. The bottom oven is not working (the cleaning company did notify us about this but I suppose it should be repaired?) 3. In the double bedroom, one of the bedside table lights was not working, and it was not a broken bulb! 4. We were surprised that there was only one roll of toilet paper in each toilet, and that there was no washing up liquid supplied. In a property of this cost, this seems to be penny pinching? 5.The Nescafe Coffee machine had no instructions that we could find. There were some instructions for a completely different model, and they weren't in English anyway! 6. We were grateful for the Welcome Pack of a bottle of red wine, small bottle of milk and a pack of biscuits. 7. The directions to the apartment were good, but there were no instructions on how to enter the parking area. Finding out where the keypad was to the barrier caused us a delay as we searched for it!

  A superb property!

  Spotlessly clean with every attention to detail. Communication was excellent, the reminders etc. were very welcome and I took the suggested items like oven gloves, dishwasher tablets etc.but they were not needed as everything was provided at the property. The beds were very comfortable and the bedding and towels very clean. Everything was of a high quality and the fluffy white dressing gowns were much appreciated. The situation of the property was ideal for the sea, the theatre, shops etc. but unfortunately Ilfracombe had not really opened for the 2022 season and many shops and facilities were still closed. I would highly recommend this property for its spaciousness and high quality fixtures and fittings. Due to storm Eunice and the expected disruption, we left the property early but the owner contacted me to say that we did not need to hurry off as their visit had been postponed until after the storm. Communication with the cleaning company was excellent and as soon as we arrived we were sent the car park barrier code and the necessary codes to enter the property. An excellent property.

  We had a lovely stay at Kingfisher cottage.

  The location is great, being yards from the South West Coast path and with it's own beach. The views from the fields on the farm (which you have access to and have 'paths' mowed into them) are marvellous, and the Alpaca's are very friendly if you want to say hello. The cottage itself was very comfortable and well equipped, however the bathroom is on the ground-floor which was not mentioned in the listing - this could prove inconvenient for some people. The other drawback is the internet access. Whilst the listing says that "the wi-fi speed is much slower", the speed is not the main problem. The problem is the connection to the router that is external to the cottage and serves a number of the cottages. I continuously lost connection to the router which was frustrating - investment into additional connections for each group of cottages would probably solve this. However if you're not too bothered by internet connection, or the downstairs bathroom, and want a very comfortable cottage in a great location, with great views of the coast from the fields then this is the cottage for you.

  We had a lovely stay.

  There were just a few mostly minor things that could make the property more luxe to match its price tag. There was an issue getting into the property on time which the owner has apologised for and since rectified I believe. I felt the welcome gift was a little underwhelming; just a pint of milk and a pack of digestives. I saw in previous reviews people had mentioned a bottle of wine. There were no bath mats which I think is just a basic, rather than luxury item, so we had to use towels to save dripping over the floors. In previous reviews people had mentioned fluffy robes but we didn’t have these. There were no dishwasher tablets. Normally properties provide two or three at least to get you started. The en-suite shower had quite a lot of mould on the grout which could be shifted with some mould spray. The plug in the en-suite sink didn’t compress. It’s a lovely, comfortable apartment, very spacious and with stunning views. No noise from neighbours. Great location for walking to harbour and for exploring local area. Beds were very comfortable. It was a fantastic holiday.
