Unpacked the car. Repacked the car all within thirty minutes. The pubic hairs on the bathroom sink was lovely to see. The grease on the kitchen drawers was absolutely disgusting. The kettle. Wow I never seen a more filthy inside kettle ever. The tunnel cinema room well no Wi-Fi just 60 dvds. Then the owners stipulated itâs not there fault youâve paid the money for Wi-Fi in your package as the room is in a castle. The smell in the cinema room absolutely disgusting, damp putrid. Cooking utensils all plastic melted to half way near the handle. I have taken photos and I will be taking this further with Skyes.
