Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### kelly t. 10 Nov 2021 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Disgusting Thus is the second review I have left as my first one has magically disappeared. Don't belive the reviews that say it's 5\* and clean etc. They are not true. I have photographic evidence of the disgusting state of the house when we arrived after being told it had been cleaned! We had to leave and couldn't stay there. The description has been changed aswell as it wasn't written on the description that dogs couldnt be left unattended. That's been added after we have complained and we are still fighting for our money back. Owner very rude and now ignoring us ##### kelly t.
