Nice touches such as fresh flowers and the âWelcome Package. We were disappointed to find that our request for zip and link beds to be made as a double was not done despite receiving confirmation email to the request. I will explain the low rating given - these are constructive comments. Accuracy of listing: Property information says Off Road Parking - Arrival info email says one car only and in the next paragraph two. Make this clear prior to booking as folk with more than one car have a problem as off road parking is virtually non existent. Comfort: Downstairs was excellent. Upstairs I feel that the restricted headroom in the double bedroom and very small bathroom should be made clear in description. Facilities and Maintenance: Facilities very good but simple things such as hooks on bedroom door and bathroom are lacking. Decent mops to keep hallway clean and please replace the disgusting wet room rubber brush. Upstairs bathroom lock does not work as hole for lock is in wrong position - this has been mentioned in many previous reviews and would take minutes to fix. Kind regards Mark Harris

This in fairness was not the fault of the owners and was fixed within forty eight hours. However the visit was spoiled by building work being carried out adjacent to the property despite being told the week before our stay by the owners that no work was being done. The work had been going on for some considerable time so it had not started when we arrived. There is also major building work being carried out in the building opposite Kober.
