Pauline
The area is beautiful and the house was ideal with lots of space which was important as I am disabled and needed to use my portable mobility scooter to manoeuvre around. The only downside, which would stop me from booking again, was the aggressive attitude of the gentleman who arrived to do the cleaning as we were leaving. He berated my husband for parking too close to the front door, which had he asked could have been explained, as I had previously slipped and fallen on my crutches when the car was parked farther away. The lady who accompanied him was very pleasant and enquired if we had a good time but was interrupted by the man and told not to delay us any longer. I could have understood if we had been excessively late in leaving the property but we actually drove away at 10:18am. This was very disappointing as up to this point we had all had a brilliant experience.

On arrival the condition of this property was very disappointing with regards to cleanliness. The oil-fired boiler situated at one end of the property has clearly had a recent leak which has resulted in a very strong smell of fuel oil at that end of the property, so much so we felt it was not possible to use the washroom, bedroom and facilities in that area of the property due to the level of fumes. In addition, basic property cleanliness was found to be very poor on arrival: 1) A large amount of the crockery had very obvious traces of food on them from a previous occupier. 2) Staircase was filthy 3) Fridge door handle had food stains from a previous occupier 4) Internal door glazing covered in stains and fingerprints from previous occupant/s. 5) Shower enclosure for the main bedroom covered in dried water stains from previous use 6) The owners dog seen using property lawn as a toilet. As such the area was unsuitable for the 2year old toddler in our party to play on. If the presence of free roaming dogs was made clear on the website description, we would not have booked the property.

Exceeded all our expectations. Such a lovely welcoming feeling when you arrived. Very bright, clean and has everything you need. Definitely would stay again. We were a family of 6 adults 5 grandchildren age 1-10 years. Plenty of room and space for everyone. Lots of memories made thank you.
