Beautiful surroundings

Really lovely location and house with beautiful surroundings and easy to get around. We managed to find the place however it was not the easiest to park. Inside the property was clean and well presented. Enjoy to games, hot tub and wood burner.

Nice little hideaway

Lovely place but needs decorating . Lovely kitchen and lounge . Some damp in front bedroom and the shower was very loud. Hot tub had a slight leek so had to to get someone to come out and top it up. Overall was lovely and peaceful and near everything

Dear Joanne. A big thanks for taking the time to review Bramblewood. We have taken your comments onboard and immediately raised these issues with the Owner and our Housekeeping team. It's a shame the shower and damp were not raised during your stay, as these could have been addressed immediately to ensure you enjoyed the rest of your stay. Warm regards The Fresh Escapes Team

Beautiful property and location.

Beautiful property and location. Was a musky smell but was clean on the inside. Would have made world of difference if outside was better kept, lots of leaves cobwebs etc in seating area. Has everything you needed in the kitchen, although very small freezer. Beautiful private location great distance from local towns etc. a little difficult to find and very steep hill where signage is to property but there is another road that goes up to the back drive. Upon arrival hot tub was not ready and had not been cleaned between visits but fresh escapes were very easy to contact and helpful, we did it ourselves but the pool guy was there first thing to check and test the hot tub.

Lovely property

Overall, we had a relatively seamless and happy stay at this house and enjoyed our time on the south coast. The house is beautifully furnished, if a little tired in places. We had an issue with the hot water on arrival but the property managing company were efficient and communicative and the problem was quickly resolved. Unfortunately, this did leave us to discover that the security camera that is positioned over the patio and hot tub was streaming to a laptop inside the locked boiler cabinet. We can understand why a security camera may be necessary but we were disappointed that this was not clearly stated in the booking information, as is required by Vrbo’s advertising standards.

Mixed - but overall enjoyed our stay.

excellent location, local roads are properly only one car width wide so if you meet a car coming up the road one of you will have reversing to do which was a challenge. mix up with the hot tub not being cleaned so no use of that for first 4 days. In need of a good clean and decorating, some black mould in bathroom and fridge seal, enough that the toilet seat broke in half and I replaced at own cost. internet speed is poor 2-3mbps at best. 4x4 car recommended to get up the drive. Didnt love the neighbours cockerel announcing itself at 7am each day, but its the countryside so....

Ok, aber bei dem Preis haben wir mehr erwartet

Schöne, im Grunde saubere Unterkunft, aber Schimmel im Bad und in einem Schlafzimmer. Geschmackvolle Einrichtung. Schlaf-Gelegenheiten für 6 Personen aber nur 3 Löffel. Ausstattung in der Küche verbesserungswürdig. Keine Auflaufform, nur 2 kleine Töpfe. Keine Wäscheleine. Ausblick von der Terrasse auf einen kleinen Rohbau. Grundstück nicht komplett eingezäunt.
