The property is roomy and spacious and the both the property and all the linen were very clean. The location is in a very peaceful residential area and ideal for some P &Q . Also the staff were very helpful when we had come out without the front door key . However one bath mat shared between three bathrooms is not ideal. The house could do with some TLC and the garden is sadly lacking in care .

Two days before our arrival date we were asked to arrive an hour later so that the premises could be made Covid safe. However, the house had not been cleaned since the previous tenants and was in an appalling state. Given the pandemic this was exceptionally troubling. Three cleaners were dispatched, one stayed a short while and the other two spent a couple of hours clearing up the mess and trying to make at least one bedroom ready for us to use, clean the bathrooms etc., do their best with the kitchen, and hoover most of the food debris and feathers in the sitting room. Telling us they had seen worse was no comfort. Eventually we unloaded the car and stowed away our grocery delivery. It was after 9.00 when we switched on the smaller oven and the smell of burnt fat spread all round the house. Smoke billowed out, but no smoke alarm alerted us. We used the larger oven - free of fat but not as clean as it should have been. The beds that were made up had exceptionally hard mattresses, so the following day we moved the linen to the other bedroom. This was when we realised there had been no mattress protectors on those beds. I could go on. The place felt frowsy and unloved. Unable to relax, and feeling unsafe, we left after 48 hours. To date Henry Adams have failed to respond in any meaningful way to our complaints, blaming an issue of communication with the owner. Not a problem of our making but we are left out of pocket and very angry.

Lovely light and spacious house in a very peaceful location, just a minute or two’s walk from a huge empty pebbly beach. Everything was very clean and well equipped and we had a wonderful stay. I would definitely recommend this house to others. The only minor improvement for the future would be to provide little bedside tables or shelves in the master bedroom - it would be useful to have somewhere to put books, a glass of water, etc. Thanks for a lovely stay :)

Everything was high standard
