One of the reasons we picked this property was because of the garden and the play equipment available for the children to use. Our biggest issue with this property was the dog poo in the garden.
When we arrived at 4pm there were 3 lots of dog poo in the garden, including one near the slide, so I felt uneasy letting my 2yr old play in the garden until it was picked up. When Daniel came to introduce himself as soon as we arrived, i kindly asked if it could be picked up so my son could play. The next morning, the poop was still there so I had to text Daniel and ask again. We went out for the day but when we came back, the original poop had been picked up, but clearly the dogs had gone again!! By this stage I was very frustrated as my son hadn’t been able to enjoy any time in the garden playing. I texted Daniel again about the poop. He did not apologise only offering poor excuses for dog poop constantly being in the garden, “We are just back from a dog walk where they just went as well. I hope that’s the last of the poo. We always pick up provided we know it’s there. They should actually be going on our side of the house but as my dad is away (the main caretaker) they are acting up”.
If you have dogs on the property, the owner should be keeping an eye on the dogs and cleaning up the mess straight away or prevent them from going into the ‘visitors garden’. We would not stay here again. Very expensive stay for what we experienced.
