Had a great time at Sunny Sands, everything you needed for a large family gathering...good quality bedding and towels, clean and tidy on arrival...on closer inspection, paint work could do with a bit of TLC,and carpet a bit stained but nothing to bad, that would put me off going again...outside area lovely....only negative would be lack of hot water for 9 guests....
Beautiful house, with excellent amenities. We were very impressed by the exceptional high standards of the property. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you
We've just returned from a great week at Sunny Sands in Croyde. The property is great for multi generation families having both upstairs & downstairs accommodation. The upstairs master bedroom is beautiful but houses the only bathroom upstairs which for us was ok as our children were upstairs with us occupying the twin room. The house was very warm and comfortable and the fully enclosed garden was great for the 2 dogs. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you'd need including lots of beautiful glassware & crockery. Also the position of the property was great being only a short stroll down to the village and also backing onto a lane that takes you down to the beach. The hot tub was an added bonus. The house was spotlessly clean when we arrived so the housekeeping deserves a mention. There was no head on the Henry hoover in the garage which meant we couldn't hoover during the week. The linen and towels were good quality and it was really nice to have large generous bath towels that actually wrap around you. All communication with Ocean Cottages was also good as always. We would definately return to Sunny Sands in the future.
Lovely & comfortable well equipped property. A fantastic multi family use property however it could have a separate bathroom upstairs other than the en-suite. The decking is in need of a deep clean it is very slimy in places This property is in a good walking distance of Croyd village & the beach. We had a fantastic holiday Thankyou
Spent a week in this gorgeous property spanning 3 generations. Great access to Croyde beach, walks to Puttsborough/Woolacombe/Saunton Sands/Baggy Point. Local amenities cater for breakfasts , coffee through to dinner. Facilities in the property were great - plenty of space to spread out, bbq, hot tub, well equipped kitchen - nothing to fault. I didn't want to leave such a great review incase someone books it before me for next summer!
I wasn't expecting to have to clean the fridge shelves which were brown with food residue and the sticky door handles of the kitchen units when I arrived. The fridge had been "cleaned" as the bottom of the fridge was full of water which leaked every time you opened it... we sorted it all out but it's such a shame as it ruined the first impression. I have to say the as the rest of the house was spotless, but as the kitchen is the heart of that house, it should be clean. That minor gripe said, it's a beautiful comfortable house, equipped with everything you could need. I would definitely book the house again, I'll just take some cleaning gear ;0)
Sunny Sands is a wonderfully spacious house with lots of outside space too which we were able to enjoy in fabulous weather! It's ideally located for the beach and the village. Very well equipped and it was really helpful having all the drawers and cupboards marked with their contents. We'd thoroughly recommend a stay at Sunny Sands and hope we'll be back again one day.
We had a lovely time at Sunny Sands, the house is perfect for 6 adults and two small children. We particularly enjoyed spending time on the deck where there is an excellent hot tub and plenty of seating options.
Been in many houses in Croyde over the years. This was by far the best ever. Great customer service during our stay. I'll certainly be back. Thankyou. Paul
Lovely stay at Sunny Sands. The property was set up brilliantly with almost anything you could possibly want. It felt very clean and well organised. Short walk to Croyde beach and the centre of Croyde. I wouldn't hesitate to book again.
Lovely house in a great location, fully equipped with everything you would need and plenty of space for a large family to relax and enjoy the local area. Just a couple minutes walk to the village and 5 minutes walk to the sea. Will definitely return :)
A very well equipped comfortable and spacious house. Good quality ,good condition equipment furniture & bed linen towels etc. Very clean with good attractive decor. Great hot tub and outside furniture. The shower / wetsuit drying room very useful for surfers etc returning from beach. Good for cleaning the dog too. Attractive outlook from the back windows and very convenient For access to beach, village, pub and nearby beaches. This property was great for a winter break and would be even better in summer. Would love to return.
We were really impressed with the quality of everything at Sunny Sands. It really felt like a 'home from home'. Cocktail glasses, cocktail shakers and amazingly comfortable beds! Perfect for a family gathering and the hot tub was an added bonus. We hope to be able to return again next year.
We had a great holiday at Sunny Sands in August, the house is beautifully furnished and well thought out, a prime example being the wet room accessed from the garden so you can wash off straight from the beach and jump straight into the hot tub! Also great to have the garage for surf boards etc. Beds really comfy and plenty of storage. The location is amazing, just a short 5-10 minutes stroll out of the back gate to Croyde beach. We'll definitely be back!
