Rosebank Cottage Reviews

Allister

We were a group of 7 and really enjoyed our stay here. It was peaceful, well furnished, walking distance from the coast and there was off road parking. We also really enjoyed the local tea rooms at Town Farmhouse. We were a bit concerned about the hot tub because of a previous review on here, but I spoke to Tracey the property manager for a good 20 minutes before we arrived and she took me through the extensive cleaning process they do for the hot tub for each time new guests arrive and they are very thorough. We used it multiple evenings and had no problems nor were there any smells. Just shower before and after you get in, and if you stay longer than a few days go for the midweek clean standard hot tub rules which I dont think the previous guests followed. Only thing worth mentioning is the house is a bit light on basic consumables like washing powder, cling film, loo roll etc so make sure to bring what youll need if youre staying more than a few days. Or alternatively there is a shop just down the road.

In the main, we had a lovely week in this property. The house is beautifully finished, well equipped and very comfortable. my only complaint from a comfort perspective, is that the beds are memory foam and covered in plastic protectors. I found them very hot for sleeping. The house does have some minor maintenance issues. The kitchen tap drips constantly and the hot tub does not work completely as some of the jets are nonfunctional. More worrying was the fact that the hot tub had not been maintained properly. We all got folliculitis, which is known to be caused by a particular bacteria buildup in hot tubs. There was a smell of rotten eggs, emanating from the tub after a few days.

Lovely property with everything thing you could wish for . My only comment would be the mattress protectors are like sleeping on plastic . I understand why they are needed but not nice and I suppose cannot be helped. Otherwise everything perfect.

This property fit our groups needs perfectly. Everything as described and it is a beautiful house. Plenty of space for 10 people and a dog. A good variety of cooking equipment which allowed our group to cook several meals and a full English breakfast. The best beech is woolacombe beech which is about 35min to walk but only a 5 min drive. Car parking is paid for but 5 for the day at the main car park. I would definitely come back! Thank you for having us.

Generally the property was adequate, clean and tidy. Parking was a problem, the number of parking positions was not clearly advertised. Dinning room chairs were too low, bed not very comfortable.

Andrea

We had a lovely stay in Rosebank Cottage. Very comfortable and well equipped for a large group. We were a family and cooked in most nights but had delicious fish and chips from the chip shop in the village one night. The walk to the beach is a hike but the pubs in the village on the way back provide welcome refreshments. A great place to stay and will return.

This is our second visit, and we will definitely return with our family, we love the house its everything you need in a holiday home. When we arrived it was spotlessly clean and very tidy and inviting. We met the lovely Theresa on as we were leaving, top marks to her for the effort she puts in and the pleasure she has leaving the house so well prepared. Thanks also for the treats left on the fridge for us.

The location was very good and the property suited our requirements however hot tub was not working properly although we reported it, it was not fixed during our stay. The outside furniture had seen better days and not adequate party of ten. The only other minor point there was a tin opener that was completely useless. There also needs some clearer instruction on recycling waste. When we reported the problem the property contact resolved it very promptly.

Mathew

Could not speak highly enough of this cottage. We had a fantastic weekend as a group of 11. The cottage was clean, tidy, spacious and really maintained. We all had a brilliant time, and would 100 recommend to anyone

Melanie

Lovely property, good size for large party. Stunning location. General cleanliness not good, especially during these covid times, toothpaste splashes around basins, dust and dirt on skirting and behind toilets and toilet seat lids, bits on carpets, and a few bits of debris under beds and sofas from previous occupants and generally dusty. Worst of all to my horrror when stripping sheets off on leaving as requested found the mattress cover on my bed in master bedroom was heavily stained with bodily fluids from previous occupants and also on one of the beds on the second floor. No liners in bathroom bins and only one bathroom had a toilet roll provided. Outside bins contained a large amount of rubbish and recycling from previous occupants thereby leaving little space for our accumulated Christmas rubbish and recycling. Recycling instructions were rather vague. Some of the non stick saucepans were badly scratched which caused specks of non stick material to infiltrate food whilst cooking and finally we found the provision of cookware and dishes rather inadequate when cooking for a large party.

Catherine

I booked Rosebank Cottage after looking at many properties on the website. Stunning location and property which 100 had the wow factor when we walked in. Tracy had kindly left two cakes and plenty of coffee which was welcomed after a long journey. The house took 11 of us easily ranging from aged 1 to 71. The cot and highchair were available as requested and the hot tub was spotlessly clean. The bedrooms are beautiful and the underfloor heating a real treat for the cold weather. A perfect stay to celebrate my 40th with all my family. Thank you!!

We were a party of 10 ranging from 4yrs up to 78, every one of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Rosebank cottage Mortehoe. The cottage was absolutely beautiful, the decor throughout was lovely, the beds were comfortable and the cottage was nice and spacious which was welcome with 10 of us. The cottage was fully equipped with all the necessary pots and pans, crockery, cutlery, utensils all in all the facilities were great . Just a 5 minute drive from Woolacombe, their are stunning sea views, we went to a lovely family run pubrestaurant called The Jube, which we would highly recommend. We were really impressed with our stay at Rosebank cottage and would definitely recommend it

Debbie J

Rose bank cottage is a fabulous cottage with great facilities . The only problem we had was the WiFi was too weak for 10 people , with one trying to work on a laptop .

Rosebank Cottage was a wonderful base for our family to gettogether. The cottage is beautifully appointed and decorated and the bathrooms are particularly splendid. The kitchen and dining area were well equipped and meant that we could dine in style. The hot tub was a lovely addition. However the cottage is badly let down by the terrible beds and bedding! Broken slats, rustling sweaty hot plastic mattress covers, lumpy pillows none of us slept well! I appreciate that by the end of the season some wear and tear will have occurred but I see that other reviewers pointed these faults out earlier and they could have been rectified.

Patrick

I stayed with a group of friends and we had a lovely week at the cottage. It is only moments from the village and a short walk to the beach. As others have pointed out the parking is a bit tight but you soon get used to it.

Had a fabulous week. Arrived to tea, coffee, sugar, milk and cake which was a lovely touch. There are always things which can be criticised but at the end of the day this is a holiday home and for a week you can always make do! A few more wine glasses and fizz glasses would have been good

Hannah

The location was brilliant rather hilly in the area just to be mindful of. The house was beautiful and I think the hot tub topped it off. A lovely holiday and we was blessed with good weather. Highly recommend

Alison

Lovely house, great location. Cot was an issue as not stated was a travel cot plus no mattress base is not a mattress No laundry bags to place dirty laundry in as we are asked to strip the beds etc, slats in bed on top floor broken, not all jets working in hot tub and finally there were items from previous guests left in draws in main bed room as well as lacking in general cleanliness.

Graham

We had a wonderful holiday. ...all 6 adults and 6 children. Overall the downstairs living accommodation was clean and tidy. Some of the bedrooms and bathrooms were dusty and unfortunately one waste bin had personal waste from a previous occupant. Standard of all towels was poor...thin and very small.

From the minute you walk in, this cottage oozes charm and is very welcoming. There is everything you need and more for a perfect holiday. Our group of adults ranged from 20 through to 80 and the accommodation suited all. Travelling with two dogs, means the list of boxes we need to tick is quite long and this cottage fulfilled all our requirements. The tiled floors, doggie extras and the totally enclosed garden made it the best dog friendly cottage weve ever stayed in. The location is idyllic so peaceful with stunning views out to sea from the 1st2nd floor bedrooms even though you are on the main strip for camp sites etc. The garden is lovely to sit in and soak up the tranquility that surrounds you along with the hot tub which made a lovely evening watching the sun go down....bliss! This is the place to stay if you want total rest and relaxation it is relatively close to beaches, just a bit of a trek downup hill not for the oldies but plenty of places to park at the beach too, places of interest and amenities, making it an ideal property for everyone. Would return with no hesitation. We all had a fabulous stay the weather helped with top temperatures of 25 degrees. You forget how nice it is to stay in the UK for a vacation and how beautiful it all is. Must remember that once we all go back to some kind of normal in the future.

The house was ideal for our large family holiday with age ranges from 10 to 69! The bedrooms were super, especially with so many ensuites it meant everyone could shower and bath at the same time. Beds were comfortable and rooms were beautifully decorated, even giving us a view of the setting sun over the sea every night. In the kitchen, there was ample pots and pans if we cooked, which was not very often and fully stocked with glasses, crockery and cutlery. The snug room was great for the playstation boys, leaving us to watch the huge TV in the big lounge if we wanted to. The hot tub was a real treat for us ladies most nights while the chaps had a few beers on the patio. We enjoyed drinks and food at the Chichester and The Ship, can also recommend takeaways from Rockleigh Bakery, but go easy on the puds as they are really delicious. Parking was snug but we managed, and most days we walked to the beach so no need to take the car. All in all, this cottage delivered everything as promised, and we felt very lucky to be able to enjoy a family holiday in lovely sunshine after the year we have had

Really lovely house. Only bit of feedback was that the mattress in the master bedroom was awful. Given how great everything else in the house is seems like something you might want to address. Don't want to sound like I'm complaining though really loved the house and as I say everything else was great.

Charlotte

So well equipped, the kitchen was a dream, full of cutlery and glassware etc. The house was beautiful, great sociable space for our extended family. The children enjoyed the safe garden. What a picturesque village also. Great location. We would love to return and will recommend to friends.

We had an amazing time only a couple of small issues but nothing to write home about

The cottage was good for our multigenerational family holiday with ages from 9 to 77 in terms of location and facilities and we all had a wonderful time. There were, however, a few teething problems probably associated with it being a newlyrented property. We were unprepared for the difficulties of parking our three cars, and there were some significant omissions from the information folder. For example we only worked out how to use the induction hob by trial and error! When the power went off we had difficulty locating the RCD device, and a reference to its position would have been useful. The wifi hub reference name in the folder was incorrect, but we found it by searching available sources and applying the given password to a different one. The instructions which we received to gain entry were incomplete, and we had to 'phone the cleaning company to get these clarified. We were quite surprised to find two empty wine bottles in one of the bathroom cabinets!

Amanda

The cottage was nicer inside than the photos suggested . We had a lovely surprise of bottle of champagne from the owners as we were their first guests . The 6 adults in the party did not sleep well as we found the mattresss to be soft & not supportive .. the master suite bed felt very small as was the ensuite . The kitchen as lovely as it was is not designed for 12 people the fridge did not accommodate all our fresh food .. outside seating dinning would not accommodate 12 people . Location was lovely although we booked it as it mentioned walking down to the beach near by & we couldnt access it as the steps were broken & apparently had been for 12 months .
