The location of this place is excellent- it’s got a pub nearly next door, a lovely shop and is a few minutes drive from Wells and various other beaches.

We thought the cleanliness wasn’t great- my mum arrived and re hoovered various places as it seemed like it hadn’t had a proper clean in a while. We had taken our own pillows and left them on the floor next to the bed and they looked dirty from just sitting on the floor.

The house is very well thought out in various ways- outside is a bbq, crab buckets and lines, buckets and spades. There are a few games and a dvd player but sadly no cable to connect the dvd player to the tv. There are Tupperware boxes in the kitchen and a few pans- one of which doesn’t work on the induction hob.

We enjoyed our stay and we may come again as the property was good value!




Good location, comfortable and well presented.

Started with a negative - the keys were wedged in the key lock so tool some time, a phone call to the office and a lot of jiggling to get it open.
Cottage is lovely, well presented and comfortable. Its location, central to the coast road, the lovely pub and stores and the salt marshes was great.
There were some cleanliness issues - extensive cobwebs on the floor/ skirting areas and previous occupants belongings found on the floor (hairgrip etc) pointing to a quick floor cleaning rather than a more thorough clean.
The manual was very helpful when working out some equipment. The small back courtyard garden was lovely to sit over breakfast in the morning.

Hello Maeve Thank you for taking the time to review Valley view. Your feedback is so important to us. Sorry to hear the keys were jammed in the key safe when you arrived. Not a good start but luckily we do have a local manager called Jamie and pleased to hear he attended straight away. Very disappointing to hear the cottage was not as clean as you would have expected in some areas. I will certainly pass this back to the housekeepers. Pleased to hear that you enjoyed the cottage and its location. We hope to see you again soon.

Fantastic from start to finish .

Lovely cottages and well placed for numerous visits to suit most tastes. Road to the front not noisy so shouldn't put people off. Generally well equipped with empty storage cupboards for our provisions which was great.

Milk in the fridge and some tea and coffee to get you started was nice. Also a pack of biscuits, however, when reading the visitors book we were envious at the welcome packs of old!!

Only down side was the lack of a large fridge or an freezer. The advert is over generous as the integrated fridge (so space is lost) has a small ice-box. For self catering (we were 50/50) we found the space inadequate and ended up throwing food away mid week.

the pub a couple of door away was nice and staff friendly. You'll need to book if going during busy periods. All very quiet and closing time so don't be put off!

We'd recommend and stay again if we were in the area. A little pricy but it was Jubilee half term.

Valley view was absolutely pristine, putting our own house to shame and fully stocked for all needs and cannot be faulted at all
The location is ideal if you are a naturalist because there is a conveniently positioned bench opposite the cottage looking over a water meadow in which we observed 6 hares playing, 2 Chinese water deer grazing, a kite quartering the field, swifts screaming over head and a little owl chilling on the telegraph pole 3 doors down by the pub on our first evening alone!!!
There is no noise at all from the hostelry and it offers good standard pub food
The area is fantastic with loads of nature reserves to visit, an excellent village shop incredibly well stocked and a Mecca for loads of people to meet up for coffee and generally the pace of life is so much slower and more peaceful
I cannot recommend this property strongly enough but hope this review doesn’t lead to too much competition to preclude our return!!
