    “The owner was so kind and helpful lending us their dvd player.”

    The double bed was very comfortable. However - the mould in both shower cubicles needs addressing - cobwebs behind blinds, under sofa and on most skirting boards - nut kernels under seat cushions on sofa - a general clean of the property would not go a miss I have photos to share with you.

    Thank you so much for your feedback. I am sorry that the house was not in a proper state for your visit. There is no excuse . Your comments have been very helpful and the issues have been addressed urgently with the housekeeper. If you come again I hope you will find that the place is in a much better state. Property Owner
