Sand Martins

Please make yourself at home, we would appreciate it if you can replenish any items, especially essentials (Toilet Rolls!) Anything that is left out is available to use. Spare duvet sets will be found in the bathroom cupboard. Please leave any used bedding in the washing machine but do not switch on when you leave.

Pets

We welcome your dog to Sand Martins, however, please do not leave it unattended in the house at any time unless it is crate trained (Stored in the nest). Please keep the garden clear of dog poo, especially when vacating the property at the end of your stay. There are plenty of dog friendly walks around the village, the beach immediately in front of the village has restrictions on dogs from April until October, otherwise you are free to let the dogs run on the beach outside the confines of the village. The route east past the lifeboat station has the quickest access to the beach where the dogs are free to run off the lead. We have had reports of Palm Oil deposits on the beach, this can be harmful to dogs. (May 2021)

Bins

The collection day is a Monday. The bins are located at the rear of the property. There is a recycling bin (green) and normal waste (black)

The hot water is on demand. The heating thermostat is located in the kitchen on the wall beside the cupboards to the right of the fridge. It is set to provide a comfortable temperature around the house throughout the day however if more heat is needed then just gently press the side of the thermostat against the + symbol to turn the heating on or the – sign to turn it down. It is a smart thermostat which allows it to turn the heating on and off throughout the day and night and can be controlled remotely. The manual change lasts for 2 hours when it reverts to the default setting. When leaving the property there is no requirement to turn the heating off.
