On arrival we discovered a severe ant infestation on all three floors, they were in every room, even on the ceiling. I immediately contacted the host who seemed to misunderstand the severity of the problem. On arrival we spent hours vacuuming up ants, it was a constant battle and fly spray was the only way we could keep on top of the problem. The host delivered ant bait stations and more fly spray. She also unblocked a massive hair ball from the substandard vacuum cleaner but didn't offer stay and clean up the hundreds of ants. The ant bait just attracted more ants and was a poison risk with 3 young children in the house. I was incredibly disappointed that no one was sent to clean up the dead ants, rather we were left to spray and vacuum them up daily in an effort to manage the problem. I would have expected a discounted price or an offer to move to another location so the house could be fumigated. A very disappointing experience during a much anticipated family holiday.
