Reviews

This house was perfect for our family over Christmas. It was clean and spacious and walking distance to the beach. There was 4 of us and we all had a lovely room each. The lounge and kitchen was a nice size and we found the house had everything we needed within. We were lucky to have such a mild day on boxing day to be able to sit in the large garden and look out on the beautiful views. We found the biscuits and bottle of wine welcome, a lovely touch and also all the tea and coffee. I would love to return to this property again.

Miss R,

Great spacious family home to share.

Miss A,

Excellent holiday home with plenty of equipment. Beds very comfortable. Beach not too far away. Croyde village almost on doorstep. Plenty of room for 2 cars. Balcony great addition with views towards the sea. Would love to go again. Sub note for owners. Noticed that the side gate was being opened on several occasions we thought by persons using the garden as a short cut. Had to keep checking as we had dogs in the garden.

Mr Steve T,

The ease of booking, description of the property and general overall experience was excellent, and yes, We Will Be Back.

Mr G,

Spotlessly clean, spacious and well equipped. Ideally located 2 mins from village centre and 10 mins from croyde bay beach (dogs not allowed). 10 mins drive or 30 min walk to dog friendly putsborough beach. Dog secure garden. Parking for two cars on drive which is essential as other parking is limited. 3 double bedrooms and 1 smaller with bunk beds. Spacious lounge and dining area with enough comfortable seating for all. Kitchen well equipped with plenty of cutlery, crockery, pots and pans. Everything well maintained. Spacious outdoor veranda offers great views. Happy to recommend and would love to revisit.

Mr B,

Very easy to book, excellent communications, accurate description, no problems at all, very convenient and professional service. Lucky to have superb weather as well.

Mr Robin E,

Sundowner is a great house to share with family. There were 8 of us from 3 separate families and we had plenty of space. The table tennis in the garage is great fun. The location is fabulous being close tot all the shops, pubs and restaurants. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Thank you

Mr Ian S,

Accuracy - stair gate, it is not a stair gate, more a living room gate (more below), putsborough beach pass non-existent Location - right in the middle of the village and handy for the beach. Couldn't ask for better Equipment - as above stair gate. There are attachments screwed into the top of stairs which a stair gate would connect to. Looked for this gate. Could not find. Tried to call the maintenence number in book (7pm Friday time we arrived at property) numerous times and no answer. There is also a number in the book for another holiday cottage company which I called to be told they did not have any property of this name on their records. 3rd time lucky got through to marsdens. Lady was very understanding that I had a 1 year old running around an upstairs living room with no stairgate to ensure his safety on the landing. She tried to contact maintenance but again no luck. I tried maintenance direct a few times the next morning. Finally got through a very rude unhelpful person called Claire. I explained we had found a stair gate but it was too small for the stairs and did not fit the attachments on top of stairs and asked if she could let me know where the correct gate was. She told me this was the correct gate and should extend. When I told her it wouldn't (and confirmed this by photo message) she very rudely said "well it was used by customers 2 weeks ago". She said she could not come and fit it as it was against health and safety. I understood this but asked if she one someone else could come and at least show me how it extended. She said this was not possible as Saturday was such a busy turnover day and she could try for Monday. I explained this was not acceptable as having paid a lot of money for the holiday I needed to be able to keep my child safe. She then told me I should search the house as she believed the extension bars may be in a wardrobe. I finally found 2 of these under the stairs (not a wardrobe). The gate still did not fit at the top of the stairs. It was not the correct gate for the attachments on the wall. I eventually had to makeshift the gate on the living room door using tools I had brought myself as without I could not have made it tight enough to be safe. This is not acceptable and I do not believe this should be advertised as a child friendly property. The highchair provided was also dirty with raisins still on the seat section from the last user. Cleanliness- as above the highchair was not clean, there was also hair in some of the plug holes in both baths and sinks Comfort - everything was comfy however the were a few things which would do with fixing at the property in order to obtain a 5 star for quality (the wood around the top of the balcony for one) Value for money - think it was expensive when taking into account the service we received from maintenance Likely to book with you again but unlikely to be this property unless it became more child friendly Would recommend the company as the lady I spoke to at 7pm on the Friday we checked in was very sympathetic and tried to help. But would not recommend property as it is. I would suggest marsdens or original cottages revisit this property and reassess if it is right for the company and if it still deserves 4 stars

Mrs Lorraine M,

Could not fault the property. All great.
