Unfortunately it is very dated, and shabby The floors are all broken and lifted up. It needs a good clean, it was dirty and dusty.No dishwasher, the mugs and teapot were dirty We were very disappointed, as we were really looking forward to our stay.It could be made really nice, just needs to be updated and thoroughly cleaned.

Nice to have Proseco and crisps left. Had own garden but said shared in details. Some washing up liquid but no cloth/sponge and no kitchen towel only T towel. Oven tins were dirty/rusty and oven dirty In door opening.. Clear window in bathroom so blind down all the time. Rugs looked grubby and bedroom one was smelly. Fluff under bed.No opening window in bedroom only patio doors so stuffy. Toilet seat loose. No privacy in lounge as large window but no net curtain. Bath mat stained underneath. Got to green but not exactly horseshoe and meant we had passed turning. Plenty of clothes hangers. Nice walks for dogs. Torch included which was good as no street lights. We are not house proud but do like clean home. Internet connection fairly reliable. Shower was brilliant. Plenty of toilet rolls and fresh air spray in bathroom.
