Stayed 6 nights in Feb 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Dea B. 12 Jan 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### A little rundown and disappointing For the money I paid for this accommodation (considerably more than advertised) I was quite disappointed. I think it is commendable that the property is available to accommodate pets however I personally think it would be more hygienic to not have carpet throughout the house. It was comfortable enough but there are things that need attention (no working light in second bedroom, laundry and toilet door do not shut). Also, if you are charging a cleaning fee, I think it’s fair to expect the place to be really clean (cobwebs in the toilet, pet hair on bedside table, musty smell on all the tea towels, plus more) If I had paid the advertised price I may be more forgiving but to charge double I honestly feel ripped off. ##### Dea B. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karmin H. 19 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house love it Must stay! We will be back ##### Karmin H.

Had all the basics covered and a great vibe. Bit of extra lighting would be a good addition but other than that a totally pleasant stay. ##### katie b.
