A lot of issues need sorting urgently for safety and comfort of guests. High level dust was really bad. Kitchen equipment old and needs sorting

Location and water pressure excellent. Everything else, very disappointing.... We specifically booked this property for the games room to keep our teens and tweens happy. There were no games, just a load of broken/ mixed up puzzles. There was no table and no ball for the table football. The TV didn't work. There was an inventory full of kitchen Read moreequipment - unfortunately a lot of this was missing or broken. My mum cut herself on a broken mug that had been put back in the cupboard. There was broken stuff all over the house, including a kick board in the kitchen, blind in the upstairs bedroom, shower head in the main bathroom. The level of cleanliness is the worst I've ever experienced. We were asked when we'd like the cleaners to come back. I said between 9 and 9.30am, so we all got up and dressed, waited in and noone turned up. No-one was answering phones. In the end, we went out about 11 and apparently the cleaners came about 4, but it wasn't much better. Some of the customer service was ok and a couple of games and sets of glasses were dropped off, but unfortunately it was too little, too late. I wouldn't stay here again until a lot of work has been put into this poor unloved house. Response from holidaycottages.co.uk - thank you for your feedback this has been passed onto the management team and the owner to rectify these issues for future guests and improvements have been planned by the owner.

Back door and windows were jammed. Cellar was extremely damp and a health hazard. Games were all broken including table football. Books were so old and so few. No instructions for appliances. Back yard was filthy nothing like photographs. Workmen came to do hedges were were not informed and we had young children present. Back door and toilet door aRead morend windows jammed. We got stuck in the downstairs toilet. Baking sheets in kitchen rusty. The back gate needed attention as the young children could get out onto the hotel car park. This property had obviously just been decorated so it looked lovely. Expected facilities to match the price. The description and some photographs were misleading. Response from holidaycottages.co.uk - Thank you for your comments the feedback has been fed back to the management team for their attention. Hide
