“This was a fabulous first floor location in a large property located part way up a the side of a hill in a very pleasant suburb of Salcombe with an outstanding view from two accessible south-west facing balconies of the nearby South Sands beach and the English Channel as far as the horizon, especially enhanced when the sun was shining.”

...

The flat itself was very comfortable, clean and bright with adequate good quality modern furniture, carpeting and fittings and a well-stocked kitchen with all the usual modern facilities except perhaps a dishwasher which would have been useful, although not essential. It had easy parking for two cars, an easy access driveway and a well-maintained large garden. It is perhaps worth saying that it would not suit someone who finds steps a problem both externally due to its location on the hillside and internally for accessing the flat via a long, although nevertheless impressive, flight of stairs. We very much enjoyed our stay in the flat and in different circumstances could readily have taken up permanent residence there!!

“This 2 bed apartment does have stunning views and is well located for both the beach and town but be aware of the steep climb for the last 5 mins of the walk!”

Facilities are adequate but some of the furnishings could do with some updating. The addition of a small dishwasher would also be fantastic! The wifi did drop out every so often requiring a router reboot, but was generally pretty good, although not available in the main bedroom. Note mobile signal is a bit patchy in this area, depending on your network so the wifi is needed. As there is no dishwasher, we found that some of the crockery and glasses needed washing before use which was disappointing. The cold water pipes are clearly right next to the hot pipes so taps have to be run for some time to get cold water, which is rather wasteful. Otherwise the apartment was clean and beds comfortable. The addition of a couple of drying racks would also be appreciated as limited places to hang wet towels.

- Mrs Tanner, August 2021

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. The elevated position of 2 Hazeldene does provide stunning views with inevitable gradients involved! Our customer team are always happy to make further enquiries prior to booking if this could be an issue for you. A dishwasher is not included in the details for the property and hasn't been installed due to practical reasons relating to the cupboard space available. The owners have confirmed that there is a drying rack at the property. Property Owner

“We had a lovely break and the views are stunning from the flat.”

However, there is an issue with the hot water in the main bathroom which doesn’t run cold. It’s either hot or scalding. The en-suite door in the en-suite shower room off the twin bedroom doesn’t close and the balcony door off the twin room is difficult to open and close. The above didn’t affect our holiday stall, we loved being at the flat but given the price, it would be good to rectify these issues so we can return. The fkat, however, was meticulously clean and welcoming in every other sense. G&J Adams

“We had a lovely stay here, the view was, of course, magnificent and we spent a lot of time just looking at it, rain or shine.”

The flat was so bright and airy, it was a delight to come home to each day. The only problem, as mentioned by numerous others, was the lack of cold water to the shower.

Mr Burns June 2021

“The flat was lovely, especially the view.”

However the hot water switch was turned off, which took us a long time to find. The internet was very patchy and not strong enough to watch TV some evenings. Finally the fringe temp was set too high which resulted in us both getting bad food poisoning as some fish went off. Sadly this ruined our final day and needs checking… we had a good trip aside from this but a bit more care should be taken in ensuring the flat is suitable.

“The apartment was nice/comfortable on the whole with the most antastic views and generally clean.”

A lovely comfortable bed/linen. A few observations .... 1. The sliding door to the ensuite in the twin bedroom doesn't close without significant force being applied. 2. Shower cubicle in same room is very small/compact and the electric shower was a bit difficult to regulate. 3. The carpet on the floor in main bathroom ... a vinyl floor/similar would be more appropriate as the shower leaked onto the carpet very easily so it had to be on a low setting. Having carpet in a bathroom is unhygienic. 4. The patio door in the twin bedroom was very difficult to open/close. The door has rusted up significantly on the outer edge which probably contributes to this. 5. Lighting in the main reception areas could do with being updated/ improving. We did on the whole really enjoy our stay there - there is lots of space in the main rooms, and it's in a great location with breathtaking views. With a bit of TLC/cosmetic updating this would be a lovely apartment we feel.

“Lovely apartment, very comfortable and clean and the location was amazing.”

The view is just gorgeous. The owner called to welcome us which was a really nice touch.

“First time staying in Salcombe and 2 Hazeldene exceeded our expectations.”

The views are amazing, particularly from lounge window out across North Sands. Close enough to walk into Salcombe and the area around accommodation very quiet. The beds were some of the most comfortable we have stayed in. We had a slight problems with the showers, and Rachel the property manager promptly sorted this out. Would certainly recommend Hazeldene and we hope to return soon.

“Although the Flat was clean and tidy the overall condition and decorations were poor.”

Recent paintwork to walls was on radiators, electric switches and wall tiles, looked like no care had been taken at all. The shower in the bathroom had no cold water so could not be used this has been mentioned in the guest book going back 4 years so has never been rectified properly. The shower in the other bedroom is too small with no room to move. Wardrobe in main bedroom had a large can of paint and a fishing rod in it! Also we were provided with dish washer tablets but it would have been nice to have had a dishwasher. Space in fridge very limited we were just a party of 2 so just managed but for 4 people it would have been very difficult.

- Mr Coates, June 2019

Thank you very much for taking the time to send us your feedback following your recent 2 week stay at 2 Hazeldene. We've spoken with the owner who has asked us to cover the points mentioned in order to help yourselves and reassure future guests. Whilst carrying out your mid holiday clean the owners housekeeper reported that the shower was not working, a plumber was sourced the same day, unfortunately he was unable to gain access to the property and regrettably had to return home. He called again on Monday but was unable to access to repair. Following a series of messages left, you advised the housekeeper you did not wish to be disturbed. We can confirm the shower has since been fixed following your departure. We are sorry you felt the 2nd shower was too small. The owner likes to leave the fishing rod at the property for any visitors that may wish to use it. We do not advertise the property as having a dishwasher. The fridge is a standard under counter fridge. The owners pride themselves on providing a property that is well equipped and well cared for and feel they did everything possible to rectify the issue encountered with the shower during your stay.

“This was our second visit to Flat 2 Hazeldene, Salcombe and it was just as wonderful!”

A superb apartment, with unbelievable views. Steps outside and stairs inside would make it unsuitable for anyone with mobility difficulties, but so far, that isn’t a problem for us. We’ll be back!

“Not one fault could be found with the apartment, but I struggled to get my belongings from the car park to Flat No 2.”

Saying that as my son lives nearby I often stay in the area and over the last couple of years have been trying various places to which I have not returned. I would definitely stay here again.

“Nearly everything was very good except the showering facilities.”

The one over the bath was too hot to use and the cubicle for the other was absolutely tiny. Unusual not to have a dishwasher these days. Location and view superb.**Thank you for your comments,the shower has now been fixed.**

- Mr Palmer, July 2018
Mrs Gilbertson July 2018

“A higher rating would have been achieved if the shower in the main bedroom had worked properly.”

A sign warned of very hot water which there was, but it seemed as if no cold water was connected, so impossible to use ALL week. We had read about this in reviews when booking and expected it to be sorted by the time we arrived, as the price of renting this apartment was quite high.The shower in the other bedroom was tiny, if you were over 10 stone you wouldn’t be able to fit in it. The view from the apartment was lovely and facilities in the kitchen and the rest of the place were good.** Owner Response**Thank you for your comments, the showers has now been fixed.

“CAN WE BOOK IT FOR NEXT YEAR AS YOUR SERVICE IS THE BEST WE HAVE HAD OVER MANY YEARS OF HOLIDAYING AT SALCOMBE IT JUST NEEDS THE SHOWER FIXING IN THE BATH ROOM TO GET 100%.”

MANY THANKS TO YOUR TEAM.

“Main shower not working properly no hot water.”

Was reported app hasnt been working for some time. We were not informed prior to our holiday. Also double bed very uncomfortable i actually now have backache.keysafe very difficult to use. ****Owner Response**** Thank you very much for your feedback, we’re sorry to hear there were a couple of things that weren’t right for you. The owners have advised us there is an existing problem with the shower over the main bath and this is why any mention of it is deliberately omitted from our description of the property. The advertised shower (en suite to the twin) is an electric one and is in good working order. The double bed mattress is still quite new and has a mattress topper, though we would agree that it is firm. The comfort of beds can of course be quite subjective, what is comfortable for one person may not be so for the next! We do hope that despite this you had a good time overall and we hope we’ll see you again soon!
