Really enjoyed being outdoors and so close to the sea.
Very disappointed with the place. The photos on the website are very far from reality. Photos look like a very neat, idyllic place. Definitely not the money's worth. Poor lighting, especially on the porch. Room window does not close properly. You lie down at night and it seems as if the windows are open with the result that the bedding feels wet. Bathrooms in terrible condition. Toilet bowls can't even close properly. When you shower, the whole bathroom is wet. Kitchen can be equipped with a better stove and refrigerators especially because it can accommodate so many people. We also found a snake in one of the rooms. Website says it's rustic, but there is a difference between rustic and old! Please update photos on for website to what the place looks like now.

Thank you for your review and for sharing feedback on your stay Joanne.
I am glad that you enjoyed your time being outdoors and that you loved the location of the house with it being so near to the ocean. With the house being so close to nature we can sometimes have visitors, although we have had far more sightings of tortoises than anything else. Milky the caretaker is on-site and his number is shared with guests to assist with any queries or concerns during their stay.
I apologize that you didn't find the house to your standards. Regarding your comments about the windows and bathroom sinks not closing as well as other issues, we will definitely look into this and really appreciate the feedback.
With regards to Fridge space, we do have 4 fridges, 2 standard fridge/freezers in the kitchen area, as well as an under-sink fridge below the workspace in the kitchen and a bar fridge and separate deep freeze in the lounge, I do apologize if you didn't find this to be enough space for your group's needs.
Guests feedback is always appreciated so thank you.
Kind regards
Kate Hawkins

Nice place to make memories with friends.
Perfect getaway spot where a large group can hang out together and not be in each other's space. Will go again for sure.

Very comfortable stay and sleeps a large group of friends and you don't have to feel that the children will break something.

Amazing.
I will recommend Captains Cabin to any group of friends or a family for an excellent weekend. I stayed there with 11 friends for the weekend and it was unforgettable - the place and location is wonderful. We will definitely do it again soon.

Very relaxed!
Perfect place for many people. Two of the hot water cylinders were cold and we had to take a cold shower. Some of the things that would be in the house such as wood and cloths were not there. After asking for rags several times, we never got them. Place was not very clean either. Other than that, everything was good and it had been perfect for a family weekend.
