We were here for work at short notice so had very limited options. The property does not have wifi (standard in almost every accommodation these days) and the 4g phone signal is virtually non existent (not the owners fault but wifi would mean you could at least communicate!) The appliances in the property were very old: the toaster broke within a few days of arrival (which to her credit the owner replaced the following day) but 5 days in to a two week stay the television failed. Despite contacting the owner about this immediately, and several further times, nothing was done to rectify this. The owner maintained she contacted 3 repairs services and non responded??? That being said, in my opinion she should have replaced the TV with a new one or a temporary one but neither happened. The TV was a small, very old one (photo can be supplied) so it would have been likely that any repair person (real or fictitious) would have repaired it anyway. TVs these days can be very inexpensive and yet nothing materialised and further texts to the owner were ignored. The house is described as being in the âheart of the Lake Districtâ it is not. It is in the run down town from f Millom where there is absolutely nothing to do in the evenings (which is why a television is NEEDED). I cannot think of one positive thing to say about this house and my advice would be to AVOID AVOID AVOID!! I asked the owner for a small reimbursement (10% of a an 11 day stay) and was offered a return short break! What a joke. The standard of this house falls way below the standard that any reputable letting agency should have on their books. Sykes cottages (letting agency) were no help either in trying to rectify this) this is now in the hands of the companyâs legal department to seek some kind of reimbursement. I am disappointed with both the property, the owner and Sykes cottages, my advice would be to be avoid this house and be careful who to choose your rental accommodation with.
