Wildecrest & Ripplemead, Amblewood Guesthouse

We loved the location, the place is such a gem. The perfect getaway. The host was so nice and helpful.

Beds are very comfortable and linen is very clean. Loved the fans in the bedrooms. Location is perfect with its own private entrance. Splash pool was amazing as an alternative to swimming in the ocean.

Kitchen needs updating, but is functional with all you need. En-suite bathrooms are a bit small. A fan for the lounge would be nice.

Location. The coastal town save for the water issue The Bakery

1. The town is on permanent water shedding 2. Yet there is no disclosure of that upfront ahead of a decision or thereafter even but it should be upfront 3. We had no water and had to complain to be told that they were trying to buy water from a farmer and they later bought some water bottles to flush toilets and have wash up water 4. They could not tell the stage of water shedding or provide any details of the water shedding at all 5. The 2g wifi is terrible 6. They don't have a TV but rather a pc monitor of poor quality 7. They don't give 2 sets of keys and when asked for one. 8. Other than that, a nice place which is notched down for the above.

We didn’t include breakfast in our stay

Am satisfied about everything.

Willingness to accommodate our concerns

Original booking had toilets in a cupboard next to the bed (not an en suite bathroom as advertised ). The alternative offered was better but only one bathroom for 2 “mature” couples
