The cutlery draw and cutlery needed to be washed before using, as well as the plate/ bowl draw as they both had food scraps from previous. BBQ was also in need of cleaning prior to use.A nice stay which would have been nicer if we didn’t have to clean before use. ##### Phillip B.

The property was very clean with a well-stocked pantry and excellent cooking utensils and BBQ. 5/5, thank you. ##### Robyn I.
