The annexe is ideal for short stay but we would have found it too compact for a longer break. Having read previous reviews we expected to hear some noise from the family home (the annexe is within the footprint of the host's house). This didn't bother us at all until Monday morning when we set our alarm for 8.30 am but were woken much earlier by the family getting ready for work and school.

Spotless comfortable room with parking in great location, just a few minutes walk from town and beach. Hosts provide a DIY breakfast which was excellent.

A light along the side walk and over the French doors for when you are arriving home in the dark.

Great for one night stop but a little cramped for space if required for longer stay.

Convenient for overnight stop in Sidmouth & within walking distance of restaurant where we had booked dinner. Quiet at night so good undisturbed sleep. Facilities and provisions for making continental style breakfast. Private access and carparking.

Noise from annexe Door of room very near to the main house. Didn’t worry us but other guests could object.

Car parking & very close to town

Stayed in September 2024

Great to have a parking space but it was quite a tight awkward space to get out of. As the accommodation was attached to the main house we could hear a bit of noise from the family. It would have been nice to have a tv.

Great location, comfortable bed, very friendly hosts.

Too compact for a week's stay, dispensing kettle had to be watched and turned off. They normally are like that. IME

close to town centre

Rather than say that we didn’t like anything we would prefer to make suggestions. The guest accommodation is a separate, but integral part of the family home rather than a distanced annex. Consequently the sounds of normal family life can be heard (this made us smile as it reminded us of our sons and their children). The addition of a TV in the room could deflect from this. It was a little difficult reversing out of the parking space in the dark. Perhaps some suitably positioned light reflectors or similar could help.

The property was very conveniently located within the town. The guest accommodation was tasteful, warm and comfortable and had its own access. The owners were available but not intrusive. They provided an excellent selection of breakfast items and beverages, which was a lovely touch. There was a file of helpful information provided.

There property would benefit from greater soundproofing between the guests’ accommodation and the owners’ residence.

The owners. The bathroom. The breakfast. Location.

Well appointed very comfy bed luvly room and facilities.less than 10 minute walk to seafront and town

Nothing in particular.

The accommodation was self-service, with no interaction with the owner except when she came in to take dirty cups etc. Entry was by use of a key-safe. This is mentioned in the advert so no issue. The room was a little pushed for space, with no real room for a suitcase unless it would fit under the (fairly low-slung) bed. However what was there was excellent, and very clean. The shower-room was spacious, very well fitted out, and had a really good quality powerful shower. This, coupled with underfloor heating made a long shower a pleasure; something I don't usually enjoy.

Nothing to dislike. All good

Very pleasant, clean, comfortable and well equiped accomodation. The room was very warm and we enjoyed the under floor heating in the bathroom. The bed was very comfortable and there was free wifi. The off street parking so near to the room was really great. We really appreciated the provision of items for breakfast. There was fresh fruit every morning and a good variety of cerials, toast and croisants. The owners were able to accomodate my cows milk intollerance.

Rather cramped but all facilties very good, clean and comfortable.

Ruth and her husband were very helpful and receptive throughout, especially on arrival when we broke down outside their property! Great daily supply of fresh fruit for breakfast.

Stayed in November 2023

I don't think there was any decaf coffee on offer.

The décor was pleasing. Everything was as described in the listing. I thought the continental breakfast with a small refrigerator was a thoughtful provision. The directions to the home were clear. Communication from the host was quick and considerate.

If there was a tv there, you could take your own but it would be easier to have one in the room.
