Resposta do proprietário: Thank you for your review and noting the things you enjoyed about the house. As we explained at the time, having a sea front house with a fabulous view brings with it a heavy toll in terms of wear and tear from the winds and sea spray and the lovely man, who we are fortunate to have as our neighbour, needed to address some of these things over the summer. We go to a lot of effort to try and make things lovely for our guests but some things are simply out of our control. We can't change the view from the back facing rooms or the steep walk down to the beach, although if people are infirm there is always the option of driving down and parking on the sea level. We also cannot insist that our neighbour removes his scaffolding. Whilst it is a bit unsightly looking upwards at the house, once you are on the balcony the only view it obscures is that of the neighbour's garden. The beautiful sea view out towards Steephill Cove is still very much there. The pool table was damaged by some previous guests and the repair we had done to tide over until a new one arrived did mean it was not playing perfectly. It has now been replaced. The common issue with the sky box is that sometimes the balcony chairs get put in front of the receiver and it does not receive all of th channels. If moving the chairs doesn't work then rebooting the box usually does. However, if all else fails there are three other TVs in the house. Thank you also for promoting some of the local Ventnor businesses. The number of small independent shops and restaurants in the town is one of the things we love most about being there. No mega chains in sight!
