“We have been very dissatisfied with our accommodation at clooneavin.”

First impressions were that not all the photos were part of our accommodation. Dog friendly meant that all the upholstery smelt of damp dog and looked like it hadn’t been laundered in a long time. All amenities was incorrect! We were shown to a pay meagre for electric and heating which took £1 coins. So we ended up spending a lot more just to keep warm. The wall in the master bedroom was wet!!

First impressions were that not all the photos were part of our accommodation. Dog friendly meant that all the upholstery smelt of damp dog and looked like it hadn’t been laundered in a long time. All amenities was incorrect! We were shown to a pay meagre for electric and heating which took £1 coins. So we ended up spending a lot more just to keep warm. The wall in the master bedroom was wet!! The wooden kitchen utensils were covered in fury mould. And one of the toilets made such a pound noise when you flushed it sounded like the pipes were going to explode. In the details book we were shown to advised to hoover, clean with cleaner provided and strip all beds. Now I’m a clean person everywhere was wiped down when we left. But this made us think! This place isn’t getting a deep clean in between visits and this made us feel even more upset with our holiday. The kids were really disappointed too and this was our first holiday in 2 years . We were all so fed up and disappointed with the misleading details for this accommodation that we left 24 hours early and couldn’t wait to get home. Needs a lot of maintenance very old and run down. Upholstery and beds need replacing. I really feel we should have our money refunded!!

“I have already done this via Ellis.”

The property smelled of damp, the wifi didn't work, electricity was available only via a coin fed meter, the facilities were very basic. We did not occupy the property and found ourselves looking for alternative accommodation at 7pm on a Sunday evening with 2 small dogs, a 7 month old child and our daughter and son in law. We have been holidaying in Lynton and Lynmouth for decades but never again will we go anywhere near Clooneavin.

“Flat 8 has a serious damp problem.”

Even in the middle of August, the flat is cold. The smell of damp hits you as you walk through the apartment door. The flat itself is nice with decent sized rooms for a holiday and beautiful views from the lounge. However, the coldness and dampness stopped us being able to dry anything that needed washing and towels stayed wet from day one. It would also be preferable to have duvets on all the beds not just for the bunk beds. If you're on holiday, I don't know anyone who wants to make up 2 beds with sheets and blankets everyday. Lastly, the owners didn't know how many people were staying there so we had to find them, collect and them make up 3 more beds the evening of our arrival. A bit of a communication failure there!

“We were put in flat 6 as were told it would be cheaper to heat and flat was nice, very dated though certainly needs a facelift.”

I unfortunately didn't notice you had to pay extra for electric and heating which, at the price I paid for 2 nights, should be included . The single beds were very hard which may suit some but not us.The double bed was a lot better. The views from there were stunning

“Owner was very kind and helpful, she made us feel very welcomed throughout our stay.”

The view from the apartment were amazing and Lynmouth & Lynton and Exmoor generally are fantastic areas to visit. Would definitely return.

About the location

LYNMOUTH

Minehead 17 miles; Ilfracombe 19 miles.

Set directly on the coast at the foot of the Exmoor hills, this charming village draws visitors from near and far. Quaint Lynmouth sits between the river, shore and hills and offers small restaurants, tea rooms and inns. There are plenty of things to see and do, including a unique water-powered cliff railway with outstanding views, which links Lynmouth with neighbouring Lynton, the pretty harbour town where the fisherman’s cottages creep down towards the quay, and the distinctive Rhenish Tower sits proudly on the harbour wall. The National Trust own nearby Arlington Court and Watersmeet, a stunning riverside walk, and within the National Park boundary, the hills of Exmoor drop down to the sea where they shadow the Exmoor Heritage Coast. Romantic Porlock, home of Lorna Doone, is just 16 miles to the east, the coastal resorts of Minehead and Ilfracombe are both within 20 miles, with the hills of Exmoor dotted all around, and there are good shopping opportunities in Barnstaple, 20 miles away.
