Braunton Putsborough Sands Hotels

"Lovely Hotel with great views! Staff were friendly and hotel was lovely and clean. I would definitely go back. "

"Perfect place for getting away from the rat race and recharging your batteries. Secure garden for our dog and very friendly owners. Would definitely recommend "

"Staff were variable from courteous and welcoming to indifferent. The spa facilities are too small for the size of the hotel. Menu options were uninspiring and generally overpriced. Best thing about the hotel is undoubtedly the fantastic view"

"Such a lovely place to stay with such beautiful views of the sea. Just a short walk in to Town for all the amenities and restaurants too. "

"Smelt strongly of damp on entering communal corridor. Flat seemed ok but lots of road noise due to front window not sealing when closed. Was better when i went outside and pushed it closer. Swivel chair bases rusted badly. Sweeping brush was digusting and covered in muck and fluff before we used it. Bathroom radiator rusty, squeegies were covered in black mold. Extractor fan not working. Wardrobe had little space as full of boxes ironing board and clutter. "

"Just back from a wonderful stay at Thorpe. Thanks-you! Have stayed in many rentals worldwide - but staying here has been next-level world-class. It's clear that so much love has gone into creating this family home that has a cosy feel with so many considered premium homely touches - and Chris has been incredibly helpful throughout. If you're looking for a rental - don't hesitate to book - you don't want to lose out! The location, views, feel of the spacious home and many amenities and facilities have made it a wonderful stay. Many thanks!"

"This is a nice property that's had love and care poured into restoring it. The property is however over-marketed (and over-priced) in our opinion. Expedia market as a 'cottage' and the pin shows a central Woolacombe location. Its actually in a holiday/residential park above Woolacombe. The park its in has a run down feel to it and the first impression was of deep disappointment. Once you've moved in then its a lovely property on the inside. The garden is communal - there is no division between 'your bit (nice picnic bench as shown in pictures) and the adjoining properties. Its quiet at night and road noise (road is 20m away) is not intrusive. The location is not convenient to Woolacombe. We cycled and walked down into town. The road is steep and is fine for adults however its the main road to Woolacombe and would not be safe for young children. Its quite a climb back out too. Walking was fine apart from the first 300m. This is again on the road - there are no pavements or verges and did not feel particularly safe - after which there is a pleasant walk past stables and fields into town. There is a bus - however the stop is after the 300m pavement less stretch. You can of course drive down. We were a couple - so did not 'value' bunk beds or the thoughtful games etc provided. If you want a base for exploring the Combes then this works and there are lots a great guest reviews attesting to a good stay."

"The property is ideal for a family of our size (6 adults and one 2yr old) although we did find the bottom bunk bed too small for 2 adults - although it is listed as a double - one of us had to use the bed settee in the living room but this wasn't a major problem.Interior space was good with proper size dining table and spacious kitchen area. Garden and raised patio area is perfect with full sun most of the day but with adequate shade if needed.Evening stroll into Croyde less that 5 min walk, then back for the hot tub - perfect.We did have a minor issue with working the hot water/boiler system when we first arrived but the owners were immediately on hand and sorted it without any fuss.Communication with owners was great from initial booking to end of our stay.Only negative is that you do need to be mindful of the camp site next door. We stayed for 5 nights, the first 4 were totally peaceful - unfortunately for the last nights a large group of school children descended on the site and my god did we know about it. Despite the, I assume teachers, telling them to quieten down at 10pm, they continued well past 11pm then woke us all up just after 6am the next morning. Just grateful they didn't arrive any earlier.Obviously this is no reflection on the property owners but as a review - we have to be honest. "
