On arrival, lawn un-mowed, fence pailing broken so our small dog could get out. Everything was second/third hand - Sheets had a hole in it. Two towels left - one was so old and had bleach marks on it.There was no coffee/tea/sugar or salt & pepper or basic sauces. All the cupboards were bare - no big dishes for serving meals. There were no utensils to be able to spoon out pre-made pasta meals. The microwave was so small it could only fit a small container to heat up. The presentation of the so-called pet friendly property was abysmal. There was washing left in the washing machine. It was a good thing we didn't have diarrhea as they did not leave a lot of toilet paper. The two sponges in the kitchen were used and we would not use them because we did not know what they were used for previously.We will never stay there again and would not recommend this place to anyone. ##### Deb D.
