The boiler is about 25 years old and in need of an upgrade , as are the radiators some of which were missing the Temp valves . Bathroom and shower in poor condition with mould all over the shower enclosure and rust covering the cabinet next to shower . The cleaning company had clearly been in before our stay but there is a difference between running the Hoover round and actually giving the place a clean , every room was shrouded in cobwebs at celing level and had been there some time , as had the dead flies and wasps in the mezzanine bedroom This place with some TLC could be wow especially given great location , sadly itâs not and just feels a bit neglected .

However, the attention to detail and comfort for the guests was disappointing. The door handle to the front door came off on entering the property. The toaster does not work unless you manually hold down the levers. The manual for the cooker is not in the place advised, and we were unable to find it, meaning we were unable to use the cooker as the markings are faded and the temperature was extremely hot. The plug in the bath is broken and only comes out when using a sharp kitchen knife, which is not ideal or hygienic. I was disappointed to be told âthis is an odd one, let me know if you get it to pop outâ when reporting this issue - I would have expected the owner to note the concern, apologise and plan to rectify the issue for future guests. Due to the above issues we would not return despite the convenient location, large living spaces and cleanliness. I would hope that these issues are noted and improved for the use of future guests so that the price of the rental mirrors the quality of the stay.
