Reviews

We’ve just spent a week at this lovely apartment and really enjoyed our stay. Was a bit difficult to find initially but once we knew where we were going it was fine! Another reviewer suggested parking in the Aldi car park and walking through and this is a great suggestion as you can park for 90 mins, unload and then move to the car park (there are a choice of car parks that can be used but we always used Orchard Road). The location is great though with a good selection of shops, bars, restaurants etc.within walking distance. The apartment was very well equipped with everything you could need for a stay. The bed was super comfy and the shower was great. As the property had been empty for a few days before we arrived the heating had been turned off and because the apartment has storage heaters that heat up over night it was cold and took a day or two to warm up but there were throws to keep us warm and the owner did kindly offer a heater (which we should have accepted!). Seaton is quiet in March so limited options for eating out in the evening especially from Monday to Wednesday but all the food we had was excellent. Enjoyed the walk to Beer and traveled to Lyme Regis, Sidmouth and Bridport. The Seaton tram was lovely but found there wasn’t much to do in Axminster! All in all a lovely relaxing week!

Mrs J,

Very good value for money and in an excellent location Well equipped and very comfy Parking permit for the week was just another plus Would highly recommend this property

Mr C,

Spent a lovely week here. Apartment had everything we needed. Plan on returning next year.

Mrs E,

Great location, great facilities and very clean. Quality fixtures and fittings. Everything you could want is in there.

Mrs T,

Great location near to the front. Property inside just as shown in the pictures. We were very comfortable.

Mrs H,

We have stayed in A LOT of self-catering cottages over the years and have never been as satisfied or impressed with the attention to detail than at Sovereign. It was only 2 main rooms but they were of good size and were very well laid out; the kitchen was well equipped with the essentials without being overstocked (including sharp knives - we always take our own and they were not needed!), there were also a few provisions (oil, s&p, tissues, cling film, foil, enough dishwasher tablets/washing up liquid, and some comp biscuits!), and a whole empty cupboard to put our own food in which is so often overlooked, it also has a full size fridge freezer which again is not often thought about by many places which just sleep 2, the ice cube trays were also full which meant we were able to have a lovely cold G&T on arrival. Everything was were you thought it should be and well laid out. Shoe racks and coat hooks too. Bed was super comfy, as were the pillows and a lovely squidgy warm duvet - with spare blankets if needed. Only downside (sorry, there has to be something!) was the 'bedside lights' being spotlights - these didn't work for us as not calming and quite bright so would suggest angle-poised bedside table lights. Plenty of clothes space and hangers. Shower was lovely - rainfall head could be angled, and the water temp was great and on demand which helped me to warm up after a paddle board and swim (no wetsuit!). Great location - Seaton was a lovely little seaside town with enough things 'going for it'. A lot of restaurants were closed on the Sunday as 'out of season' but we managed to get a take away pizza from the kebab shop which was REALLY tasty. Great brunch from Coast too - would recommend. Car park was a little further away than we thought it would be (5mins not 2) and it took a bit of thinking to find the cottage, but not a big deal. I quite liked not having the car staring at us, it meant we explored more locally which we might not have done otherwise. We did the tram which was excellent fun, bimbled in the shops in Seaton, did Sidmouth with a local friend, spent time on the beaches, did Beer - all very lovely. We were pleased to notice that customer feedback had been listened to - there is now a full length mirror. Would absolutely stay here again if in the area.

Mrs J,

good lay out in a good location. Bit of a pain to find, best to park on Aldi car park against the far wall and walk up the ally by the gym / le pisani at the end look immediately left brown door small sign saying counting house. Don't forget the * at the end od the door code number. Key safe inside slide black cover down and input the number.

Mr G,

A very comfortable and well place apartment right in the centre of Seaton. Will definitely be using this again.

Mr T,

The accomadation is first rate. The only disadvantage is its location as it was very difficult to find and you have to leave your car in a public car park. Due to going out of season a lot of local pubs and cafes were closed or not providing full services, so something to consider.

Mrs L,

We are elderly and have mobility issues, so this ground floor apartment was ideal.

Mrs A,

Sovereign is a beautiful apartment in the centre of Seaton surrounded by shops, places to eat and a very short walk to the sea. The apartment was spotlessly clean, bed was very comfortable and the shower was powerful with lots of hot water. With the added benefit of a small closed-in garden, it’s a perfect place for a very good holiday.

Mrs H,

Very comfortable and well appointed apartment, everything you need is right on your doorstep, also lovely And quiet outside the holiday season

Mr B,

A well presented property in a great location. Nice neutral decoration with a good size bedroom and nice shower room. Kitchen was well equipped. Directions and details on finding and accessing the property were very good and the communication was good. The staff in the local pubs were very friendly and all those we visited were dog friendly, with our dog getting quite a few biscuits! Just to add for those travelling with pets our dog struggled on the stones in the courtyard so we needed to walk to the top of the town for some grass (note two of the parks don't allow dogs and the beach is pebble although dogs are allowed).

Miss L,

The property was lovely and clean also the bathroom was a bonus, brilliant shower. Would definitely stay again.

Mr R,

Perfect location for everything that Seaton has to offer, supermarkets on your doorstep, plenty of cafes & coffee shops, pubs & restaurants all within walking distance, beach about a minute away. The property itself was perfect for two people, had everything we needed, a full length mirror in the bedroom would be beneficial and signage on the exterior door off the communal hallway to show where Sovereign was would be helpful. Rooms were a really good size and comfortable.

Mrs S,
