Don’t take our word for it listen to what our customers have said - 100% enjoyed their stay and would definitely return !!

Feedback is now taken from an online survey sent to guests straight after the first night courtesy call we provide, this has replaced the paper based survey we initially used but the questions and ratings are the same. Guests have the chance to rate our apartment good/average/poor on a number of categories - some similar comments have been combined but all comments are recorded and feedback is unedited. Many guests have said we should have an excellent rating - currently we are unable to do this !

There is also unprompted feedback on our facebook site (covers both our 3 apartments) and our new google maps entry.

Last Update: 07/01/2024.

Our survey form asks the following questions and this is the summary of the ratings we have received. If you click on the link you will see all the feedback comments made or you can just read the examples below the score. Please do have a look - some of this is lovely !
