Fantastic location! Very spacious house with a large garden. Plenty of space for parking. Everything we needed was provided in the kitchen. Would certainly stay again.

Very convenient location for town harbour and beach. Spacious and very well equipped kitchen.
Lots of games and books. Nice garden with barbeque and outdoor furniture and ample parking aswell.

The house was in a great location. It was very roomy. The kitchen and dining area was amazing.
Unfortunately the freezer was filthy. The counter tops in the kitchen could have been cleaner. We thought there was supposed to be a dvd player but couldn't find it. We also had difficulty with the door keys not fitting properly
4.3
location good.
no grab handles in showers. Towels one bath towel provided in upstairs bathroom one hand towel provided in shower room downstairs.
Quality of toilet paper.No sun shade in garden. Radio would have been nice couldn’t rely on t.v.reception no signal did follow instructions.
weather very warm a fan would have helped.
The only property we have stayed in and not been left a welcome pack.

Located minutes from the harbour in a very quiet road. the west facing patio and garden had full sun until it went down and were very sheltered; perfect for sitting outside in the evening.
The bed is very comfortable and the kitchen well equipped with plenty of space. All just what we wanted.
Very difficult to think of anything meaningful, a potato masher could be useful !

close to town
the shower, could not adjust it. could do with a better quality shower and also a shelf and grab bar ,for an older couple not really good enough. grass in back garden was long when we arrived and was cut at the end of our week after we mentioned it, should be cut every week this time of year. two small points worth considering.

Location was a 5 to 10 minute walk from all eateries of which were excellent. The quay and shops.
the shower room needs a non slip mat in the shower and one for standing on when coming out of the shower.
4.3
great location for easy walking access into town. good comms from hosts.
enclosed garden for dogs
easy parking
bonus of two bathrooms
towels - small and thin and only 1 per person
lounge - not enough seats for 6 people but comfortable
4.3
Location was excellent as just a few minutes walk from the quayside and shops, restaurants and pubs, and only a 20 minute brisk walk to the beach.
The enclosed garden was great for the dog, on and off street parking good. House was pleasantly refurbished and the open plan kitchen diner with link out to the garden would be great in the warmer months.
Nothing

The house was warm when I arrived.
Kitchen well stocked and linen of good quality.
Managing the heating was difficult - I couldn't master it.
4.3
Location was great, property was quiet and there was private parking. It was also warm with the heating on. Perfect for a short stay to explore Wells and if you were planning to eat out for the majority of meals.
The duvets were thin, not really suitable for winter. The sofas were not very comfortable and the kitchen was not really well appointed if you were planning to stay for a long time/do lots of cooking. Some of the decoration was quite tired (scuffs and bashes on walls, around radiators etc).
4.3
The location was great, just out of the hustle and bustle but only a short walk and there was entertainment, food and drink. The securely fenced garden was great for the dogs and parking at the back was good as I would have been wary of parking on such a narrow road. The instructions left for operating shower, water and heating etc. were straightforward and easy and the touristy info was helpful.
I'd be being very picky but the guest towels were a little worn and I couldn't find an outside light directly on patio.

great location - easy walk to the beach and the local amenities. Ample off street parking and a spacious kitchen/diner ideal for family time.
the level of cleanliness wasn’t as expected - I did contact the owner and was told that the clean was an emergency one as he wasn’t expecting to rent out the property. However, the level of grime in some areas wasn’t as the result of a last minute clean that perhaps wasn’t as thorough as it should have been but had built up over a considerably amount of time. The cooking utensils looked liked they had never been cleaned and we refused to cook with them so had to eat out for every meal which made it an expensive last minute break. The towels provided had seen much better days and had very little absorbency and some had holes in them and there was only one per person which is fine for a short stay but makes life complicated for a longer stay when the weather isn’t great. There was broken furniture in the bedroom; the washing machine was hidden under junk…. the divan beds in one of the twin room could do with a good clean. No pillow protectors and quilts that weren’t pleasant when the duvet covers were removed. A litany of moans I’m afraid, but the owner is going to refund the cleaning costs and will paying an ex gratia payment of £50 to put towards the cost of feeding the 4 of us.

Layout of rooms plus 2 shower rooms
Musty smell when walking into house.
Pillows too big and hard

Location, nice quiet cul-de-sac, no noise whatsoever, a short walk to town centre - Well's main street, a short walk to Quay, plenty or room to park at back but was able to park right outside front door enabling easy unloading and loading. I will return.
Nothing, everything, and I mean everything as I would have wanted it.
4.3
yes
down stairs shower was blocked so after about 5/10 mins you’d find the water up to you ankles

House was in a good location for our activities. Had the facilities to do what we wanted to do and was of a very good standard.
Main bed was a small double size so wasn't particularly comfortable for a tall person.
4.3
The property was superbly located in Wells. Great off road parking.
Very comfortable with everything you would need on holiday. A lovely house, we would definitely stay again!

OUr second visit. A super house in a quiet location in Wells. Very comfortable, clean and well equipped with a large, sunny ,dog=friendly garden. Thankyou.
Nothing really, although a thin summer quilt would have been handy in the heat!!
4.3
Great location and holiday let which is faultless. All facilities included.
Just a shame we couldn’t enjoy the garden. The holiday let should say in advance no to allow any ball games in the garden. Such a shame as our kids were just excited to be away on holiday and they all well behaved, just boys who want to play with a ball ! The neighbours clearly don’t like kids so we couldn’t enjoy the garden. We had a great break but the tutting and moaning made our stay uncomfortable and we were trying to respect them by taking the kids out until 9pm. Not the owners fault as the place is great and in a fab location.

Clean, well equipped, fantastic location.

The house was very clean and all rooms were comfortable. Great location to the seafront in Wells.
Bedding was clean but not ironed and towels were thin and quite worn. It all needs replacing.
