Beautiful setting Settee could do with replacing in the living room large rip and black marks Nothing that would ruin a beautiful location and pleasant home

A significant security breach occurred when the owners entered unannounced, posing an escape risk to our dogs as the rear gate was left open. The interior revealed a lack of cleanliness with hidden debris and a dusty, malfunctioning fire. The sofa was in poor condition, stained and torn. The ownerâs aggressive response to a genuine oversight was unprofessional. Despite attempting to address concerns, communication was ignored . Uncomfortable beds having to chase for the front door key that should have been on site having to strip our own beds as if we stayed in a hostel not a premium property further diminished the overall experience. Itâs unfortunate, as the property has potential, but our stay was overshadowed by these significant drawbacks.â

The layout was perfect for us being fully open plan, we could easily all sit around the table for food, games, jigsaws..perfect. The location is spot on, literally at the beach and then five minutes the other way you're in the main street or the castle. We had great weather for October which obviously helped but we really loved it. I have to say the downstairs toilet with the sink in was loved by all! There were rather a lot of instructions upon leaving that we've not had at any other house we've stayed. Stripping all the beds, putting all towels and bath mats in a laundry bag and even putting out the bins. We all appreciate that it's a large house to clean but we normally have a 6/7bedroom house for the whole family and have never had this to do. We always clean round and take out rubbish and food etc, this just seemed a bit much. That said it didn't diminish any enjoyment it just made getting out for 10 a bit of a rush!!
