The Captains House is a lovely home.. it was very clean and well stocked for our trip. The owner had called me a few days before and suggested local restaurants etc! My family had a great time, the views from the front porch are absolutely stunning! I would love to go back again!
The only issue we had was a very early check out.. 9 AM was a little too early to vacate the property with young children. The earlier time could be because of covid but I still wish check out was at least 10 AM!
Great house that is less than five minutes walk to the beach, and ten minutes to Seaton beach. Most amenities were catered for, however some weren’t available (eg. bin bags) but we rang their cleaning team and they had some dropped round the following day.
Comfy beds and sofas, and lots and of fridge and freezer space.
Thanks for a fab stay!
