Needed more of a hoover and one wasn’t available for us to keep on top of this throughout our stay but otherwise very good. ##### Lynn B. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### phil m. 2 Jun 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Very disappointing Although the property is impressive inside with good size rooms and an extensive shared area. Our weekend break was ruined by a number of issues. Firstly, we had to contact both the host and VRBO for access information 3 hours before we were due to check in. On the first night, we saw mice on the kitchen, which caused us to constantly disinfect all surfaces and stop our 20 month grandson playing on the floor. On the second night, we were awoken by a very loud party next door, at another rental property, which started at 12.00 midnight. When we informed the host of the issues, they were apologetic but had to be persuaded to offer any recompense for the issues. Eventually, a token amount was given. We would not stay there again. ##### phil m. Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Liz A. 29 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely house and great location The house is a great space, with a large social area and beautiful light spaces. The beds are comfy and the bathrooms are lovely. The area is lovely and rural but close enough to east grinstead. Lots to do nearby with kids. The doors to the bedrooms all have individual automatic locks which I can see is beneficial when renting out individual rooms but as we had the whole house it would have been better to have them unlocked. When we checked in the water was off, it wasn't fully clean with spaces under the sofas still dusty and some balloons and shoes left out. Someone did come round quickly to sort out the water. The smoke alarm also was cheeping which was frustrating. It would have been helpful to have had access to a hoover, sieve/colander. But lovely place and we would stay again. ##### Liz A.
