    “This is a lovely positioned property but it is in need of some tlc.”

    The flooring upstairs squeeks everytime you move across it and is even louder at night. The beds are not comfortable, the twin room if you sit in the middle of the bed it pops up both ends and the springs get you when you turn over.. Both bedroom windows need some darker curtains or you get woken at sun up. The shower head is in need of replacing as it will not stay in position. The sofa bed is not comfy to sit on as the springs poke into your back and the matching chair the bottom seems to have ...

    The flooring upstairs squeeks everytime you move across it and is even louder at night. The beds are not comfortable, the twin room if you sit in the middle of the bed it pops up both ends and the springs get you when you turn over.. Both bedroom windows need some darker curtains or you get woken at sun up. The shower head is in need of replacing as it will not stay in position. The sofa bed is not comfy to sit on as the springs poke into your back and the matching chair the bottom seems to have dropped out of it. Apart from these groans it is a nice place to stay and in a lovely seaside village. Be aware that parking can be an issue. You are only allowed to stay in the Ness car park for 2 days. Parking is limited to one hour and no return in two between 9am-6pm. Wardens do check regularily. The London Inn has good food and the beer in the both the Ferry Boat and the London is excellent. The Ness is a lovely place to sit with wonderful views. The local Ferry is currently £2.00 each way but is set to increase and worth every penny. There are lots of places to see in the surrounding area and Dartmoor is just a stones throw away for those more venturous.
