Distress and time wasted due to negligent, unhelpful, supercilious cottage owner.

I stayed at Pleasant Maris, at East Ogwell in Devon over the late August bank holiday weekend, with my 3 grandchildren and 2 of my children. We would have overlooked the lack of general cleanliness and the overflowing wheelie bin outside the front door, but with just a brief holiday together, a lot of time was wasted, and I experienced a lot of distress, and missed going to Dartmoor Zoo with all the others due to:- Failure of the cottage owner to have sufficient money on the prepay meter for electricity supply for my stay- £1:35 upon arrival, for 3 nights and days with 3 adults and 3 small children! (electric cooker and electric hot water heaters) Failure of the cottage owner to be contactable on the Saturday for any help after my initial phone call at about 10:30 am, at which time I informed him that, despite putting £10 on the meter key at Asda, the meter was now only reading 88p. Failure of the cottage owner to give me advice that was of any help. His advice, at the time of my one and only phone conversation with him was to put another £ 10 on the meter key (now £20 spent, which has to be cash for this meter key loading) and this will solve the problem. It did not. With £20 on the key, the meter was still at 88p Failure of the cottage owner to answer my 11 phone calls to his mobile or landline phones, text message or voice mail messages, 1 left on his mobile, and 1 left on his landline. Even though he knew that I had a problem, there was no response for 5 hours after I’d followed his advice and tried the meter with £20 on it. Problem was resolved by me phoning the electricity supply company, and their goodwill and appreciation of the major electrical supply problem that I was facing. Failure of the cottage owner to acknowledge or care about my distress, and time wasted, sorting out his problem, and facing no electricity imminently, with 3 small children to care for. I note that there was a similar problem due to the negligence of this landlord for Iolamiko, last year. I would strongly advice against choosing this property for your holiday.

A great holiday, with all the facilities and comfort of home

Great location, property was a lovely spacious home. Had a couple of problems with electric and hot water on arrival but owner was easy to contact, quick to respond and resolved problem promptly. Couldn't ask for better service. Had the best night sleeps as beds were so comfortable. Will definitely be returning and hopefully again this year.

Ferienhaus ist renovierungsbedürftig, Kontakt mit dem Vermieter erst nach mehrmaligem Versuch per Handy auf eigene Kosten, Strom musste nachgeladen werden, Müllhaufen direkt vor dem Eingang, Gartenmöbel leider Schrott.

About the host

Hosted by Andy Parker

Fell in love with South Devon within days of moving there in 1991 and still prefer to visit there ahead of anywhere else in the world. We kept this cottage and love to return whenever possible.

Why they chose this property

This cottage has it all. This is a wonderful village in a wonderful location for visiting everything that South Devon has to offer; it is easy to reach Dartmoor and the beautiful South Devon coastline from here and there are great local attractions such as Moretonhampstead Miniature Pony Centre, Pennywell Farm, Becky Falls, River Dart Country Park, Paignton Zoo and a host of others. The cottage is comfortable, cosy, and fully equipped. It will be spotlessly clean when you arrive and you will feel at home in no time at all.

What makes this property unique

The only holiday cottage in this traditional village. You are off the beaten track but withing easy reach of all the places worth visiting. It is THE ideal base for exploring this fantastic part of the world.
