The whole experience was really luxurious. The furnishings, equipment, thoughtful extras provided by the hosts. The outdoor areas were fab with lovely views but also very private and the garden was a delight. The owner even gave me some plants to bring home with me... What more can I say except to recommend Palms 1 for a lovely break.

Palms 1 is absolutely amazing. We could not fault a single thing about this gorgeous property. The quality of all the furnishings, equipment and all the welcome treats were exceptional. Thank you so much to the owners for making this the best one we have ever holidayed at, and Marsden's for yet again having the perfect cottages for us.

The property is well laid out, modern and comfortable. However, it is not dog friendly as advertised. There is no garden tk exercise dogs. The information provided stating there is a field nearby to walk dogs is wrong. The field is full of sheep. The sitting area is noisy and near a main road. Often little things count (e.g towels very hard). Good Read morebut not brilliant Hide

Couldnt fault the property really. If I was to nitpick there were a couple of places under furniture what were not swept. I also found the bed too soft along with the leather sofa but as I said thats nitpicking. We also didnt realise how many steps there were up to the house which isnt suitable if your are getting on in age (which we are). But overRead moreall I would really recommend this house! Hide

We love Woolacombe Beach, therefore situation of Palms 1 was just wonderful, just down the road, although a bit of a climb. Very clean, lots of goodies and toiletries. very well equipped, the only thing i think they could do was to have another 4 mugs, other than that perfect.
