Reviews and comments from previous guests on their holidays at Chandler’s Cottage:
“There is much to commend at Chandler’s Cottage, not least of which being the attention to detail and quality which pervades. Reassuring to see such a thoughtful approach with a host of extras provided, ranging from an extensive reading library to fishing nets! The open-plan configuration is ideally suited for holiday letting.”
Absolutely beautiful cottage. So much care, attention and thought has gone into every aspect of it – giving your guests the “ultimate stay”. It is a pleasure to stay here. The welcome hamper was very much appreciated… our stay was over far too quickly leaving me with one regret – that we couldn’t stay longer!
We had a lovely time enjoying Sidmouth and the surrounding area… watching the fireworks, eating hot donuts during the regatta, sitting outside Dukes pub wrapped in blankets eating a lovely meal
