E. dirty toilets, shower rooms and floors, moudly shower head, hob and cooker hood covered in grease. Floors in lounge/kitchen/dining area not hoovered or washed, not good with a crawling baby around. On going to reception to report findings, the young lady in reception was very helpful and came over with a cleaner and agreed it had not been cleaned at all, we both took photos. She told me to go and report this to the Manager (apparently no Manager available) but message left that he would contact us in the week. (This did not happen). We were assured these properties would be deep cleaned between guests bearing in mind Covid times, which to us was important as we had baby and 2 vulnerable adults in party. On departing we left another message for the Manager but still to this day have heard nothing. Such a shame because the actual properties and setting was perfect for a holiday break.

There was waste medication and plasters and rubbish left in a bedroom drawer. There were various problems with the house ie no plug in sink or bath, bathroom shelf loose, dent in wall behind sofa, shelf missing in another bathroom, front door does not shut without locking it fully, Generally the accommodation needs some TLC as it is feeling worn and in need of various replacements like mattresses, main sofa all of which are uncomfortable and worn. Location is very good as ideal for the Peaks.
