The guttering by the front door was overflowing and the sound of running water was quite loud during the night. I took a look and the water wasn't really running away quickly enough, I can only presume the guttering was blocked somewhere preventing the water to flow away as expected. Apart from that, everything else was 10/10. Thanks.

You have only sent a close up photo of an apparent stain I caused, along with an invoice which would seem to be forged as the date has been tippexed and altered. You then send the advice note from an email I cannot reply to and equally without the opportunity to reply. If you do not refund the £80.00 we will let the local tourist board now, provide comment on social media about your approach and then ask the credit card company to recover the monies.
