I booked a lovely large house to accomodate us plus my daughter and 4 sons over from England for 1st time in 8 yrs to visit siblings and their families.
1 Andrew Street had ample room and was within walking distance to Clovelly beach.
However, it was very costly at almost £20k for 1 week! I reluctantly paid this as L'Abode had let me down on a previous booking at half the cost. I was offered a number of alternatives, all at greater expense so accepted the Clovelly house last minute due to lack of time to find another.
There were some other issues - a handwritten note on the ensuite bathroom door to not close as it was broken, no cupboard space in one bedroom as all doors padlocked, one other with shelf space only for same reason, fly screens to main doors not functioning, front door not usable and no coffee machine.
L'Abode allowed early check-in and a return to collect items left behind but did not fix the issues. I prefer to rent direct from owners so will do so again in future.
