“The reason I chose this cottage even after reading negative reviews: Location of this little cottage is 10/10.”

Short walk to crabbing on the pier, fossil hunting on Monmouth beach and a small walk into the main town/pubs/restaurants. Kids loved the location as did I. The only negative to the location being lack of parking space (Try to use the house just at the bottom of the garden, lovely owners with a small amount of parking spaces for £13 a day in high season). Lovely old cottage that has potential to be much nicer and would benefit from some TLC specifically on the outside. Some negatives: The ...

Short walk to crabbing on the pier, fossil hunting on Monmouth beach and a small walk into the main town/pubs/restaurants. Kids loved the location as did I. The only negative to the location being lack of parking space (Try to use the house just at the bottom of the garden, lovely owners with a small amount of parking spaces for £13 a day in high season). Lovely old cottage that has potential to be much nicer and would benefit from some TLC specifically on the outside. Some negatives: The garden and specifically around the side is a mess. As mentioned in a previous review, sinks, ladders etc just piled outside the kitchen window. My two kids called me outside when they were playing as they had seen a couple of rats hanging around. Wifi would definitely be a bonus here as I had little phone signal too. Tv reception is basic yes but not worthy of a negative review in my opinion as I do not book stays in a beach cottage to watch tv! The beds are not the most comfortable. Would I stay here again? Yes I would. Could it be better Yes ..the cottage has a lot of potential. At the moment in high season ( my visit was late Aug bank holiday ) it was expensive and probably could find nicer for the money.

“We have stayed here before and last time it was lovely.”

Sadly it’s so clear (and I will be following with a serious complaint) that the upkeep of the property is not of interest to the owner. Disgustingly filthy sofa, television didn’t work, if you turn the dishwasher on it trips the whole house, went to wash up - no plug, broken dangerous objects/metal/wood at the main entrance to property, not safe for children, what looks like a tip out the kitchen window (ladders old sinks and just a mess) discarded beach stuff from previous stays all thrown out the back. The sad thing is we love the house and location but we wouldn’t pay hundreds of pounds to book again unless the owner rectified these issues. We stayed with our son & baby so to have all these other problems occurring and contacting the holiday company for help - when you’ve paid to have a rest was really upsetting. I will be in touch with lyme bay holiday for compensation off of our stay.

“There is a substantial damp patch in the bathroom ceiling where rain has been coming in around the velux window,and it was also dripping into the kitchen when we arrived in a downpour.”

We would also have like a potato masher!

“The property overall was very nice, a good garden and areas to sit outside, cosy as per a fisherman's cottage, with nice views as expected.”

however it was advertised as having wifi, which it didnt. the bathrooms were reasonably clean, but didnt appear to have been professional cleaned. the bath from the photo looked full size but wasn't. the tv hardly had any channels, and even for freeview it was poor despite re-tuning it. the sofa was filthy to the extent we had to put the spare duvet on it to feel clean and able to sit on the sofa in the living room. the double bed was very small, hard and springs gone.

- Alexander, September 2022

We're sorry to hear that the property didn't quite meet your expectations. Following an independent property grading assessment the owner has made some improvements including new garden decking, new conservatory furniture, internal decoration. The property doesn't currently offer WIFI but the owner is considering offering this in the future. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

“We love your little house and will definitely be back(this was our second time).”

..and there is a beautiful ginger cat who has visited us every time!

“It would be nice to have an internet connection.”

Apart from that it's perfect!

“Great location, cute property - we had a good time, the only downsides were: Lack of nearby parking was difficult - a paid for parking pass for the week would have really helped.”

Parking costs added significantly to the cost of the week. Less fit people would have struggled with the walk up to Holmbush car park every day. More hanging space at the property would have been good. The beds in the smaller room were small and needed some attention (re-screwing ?) Suitable for children but not adults. No hairdryer provided - small point, but usually expect one. Some of kitchen utensils past their sell by date (eg frying pan)

“The decking needs updating, and becoming slightly unsafe as is quite rotten.”

The double mattress also needs updating, as it’s really not very comfortable. Also some more storage/ hanging space is needed. The twin room might benefit from bunk beds to provide some floor space and places for storage. Overall nice, but could be better quite simply.

- Andrew, May 2022

We are pleased to inform you that the garden decking has now been replaced and offers a lovely spot to sit and enjoy the views and listen to the waves crashing onto the nearby beach. The Lyme Bay Team Property Owner

“The sofa in the lounge was very worn and not clean can’t believe it hadn’t been replaced.”

The single beds were not comfortable and the mattresses need replacing as springs coming through and beds creaked so daughter unable to sleep.
