What guests are saying
Good points about Beachhaven are its size and position near the front.
The little garden is nice and useful. Having said that, I’m much in agreement with other reviewers who gave a low rating. The beds were uncomfortable and some mattresses stained. There were badly maintained bathrooms and various broken items. We took photos for fear of being charged. The downstairs bedroom at the back is not a king size as stayed and has the boiler housed in a cupboard next to it. I could go on but generally felt we had a poor deal for our money
Beachaven is in a great position close to the the beach, shops and railway station.
The host was very helpful prior to our stay, and the parking permits were very useful. It has plenty of room for a large family and a nice outdoor space. However, the house is in need of maintenance. For example, some of the showers were broken and mouldy, the nails of the carpet gripper on the landing carpet were exposed and dangerous, and there were nails sticking out of walls where pictures used to be. Also, the house needed a deep clean, and redecorating. It needs care and attention to be up to the standard we have previously known from Sykes Cottages.
The location of the property is good & the size suited our party .
A welcome basket was provided which was appreciated. The property photographs on the listing do not truly reflect the current upkeep of the property. The property would benefit from a deep clean & maintenance of items that were broken or in a state of disrepair, i.e. missing/broken pictures, loose shelving, chipped tableware , poorly maintained bathrooms, the carpet on the first floor landing is dangerous as it is frayed /torn in various places & needs a good clean. The bathrooms had broken shower doors & toilet seats , mould in the bathrooms needs to be addressed, again more maintenance & a deep clean is needed. Overall our impression of the property was that it was tired & had had its best day . We did not communicate these observations to our host as it was a short stay & nothing would’ve been resolved in our time there. Would we book the property again in its current state , no , nor would we recommend it to others . In our opinion the property rates are excessive based on the current representation of the property.
