Overview
Property code: OC-BURRO

Burrows Retreat on the edge of Braunton is a well-furnished bungalow in a quiet location with a lovely mature garden at the rear. Sleeping four people and one dog, it also benefits from a spacious kitchen/breakfast room with patio doors opening out onto a decked patio. The light and airy living room has furnishings in soft, neutral tones which blend in well with the wooden floor; whilst the modern kitchen/breakfast room has bright white kitchen units with black work surfaces and a light grey tiled floor. Patio doors lead out from the breakfast area onto the decked patio and garden – perfect for evening get-togethers after a day on the beach. A hallway leads to both the bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom benefits from a French door leading out into the garden. Burrows Retreat is a 15-20 minute level walk from the centre of the village, which due to its size, is packed with amenities and attractions for all. Food and drink are never in short supply here and you will be faced with the enviable challenge of choosing which culinary delight to try first.  Tempting Thai, Indian, Chinese, pizza, fish and chips and family friend pubs serving delicious home cooked food are all found within the village. For cultural enthusiasts the historic St Brannock’s Church sits proudly overlooking much of the village and you can enjoy a walk around the grounds. Braunton Museum is home to many interesting artefacts, whilst The Museum of British Surfing is an attraction also well worth visiting, packed with little surfing treasures past and present (only a small admission fee is required).

The ideal place to stay. Close to all amenities and just a short drive to the beach and places to visit. The accommodation was well equipped with everything you could need. We found the bungalow very comfortable and was great to have a garden for the dog to explore. Thank you for a great place.

During our stay, we found the overall cleanliness and condition of the property to be very poor. The cooker was extremely unclean and rusty, making it completely unsuitable for use. Similarly, many of the oven dishes provided were in an unhygienic state and could not be used for cooking. The vacuum cleaner emitted an unbearable and foul smell, mRead moreaking the whole cottage stinky. The condition of the bedding was also unacceptable. The single bed had mouldy sheets, while the quilts and the mattress in the back bedroom were heavily stained and unhygienic. This created an uncomfortable and unhealthy sleeping environment. In addition, the overall dcor was very dated and poorly maintained, which contributed to an unwelcoming atmosphere. The seating in the lounge was also uncomfortable, making it difficult to relax and enjoy the space. Given the poor hygiene standards and the lack of comfort, this property should not be rated as 3 stars. In our opinion, it is closer to a 2-star standard. Hide

The bungalow is small but well equipped and cosy. The kitchen and breakfast area is a lovely space. The location is excellent. The garden is smaller than on the advertised photographs as the photos are taken of the garden before the extension was built and took up part of it. A little misleading and much better for photographs to be accurate.

We absolutely loved staying here with our 2 children and dog. It was cozy, comfortable, clean and thoughtfully equipped with incredible beaches and countryside on the doorstep. All of the instructions and pointers to local places and restaurants were really helpful. We had such a brilliant week! Thankyou
