The house was comfortable and warm. There were, however, a lot of issues and things listed in the ad that we’re not working or available at the house. We didn’t feel the need to contact the host directly as previous reviews dating back to October 2021 show that some of these issues have been around since then.
When we arrived, many of the lightbulbs had blown and one bedroom had no light, we had to swap lightbulbs around so we could see. Many of the blinds and curtains were broken or falling apart. The ad states that a washing machine was provided however it does not work. We did receive and email from Julia saying to let her know if we needed a washing machine yet perhaps this needs to be removed from the listing as there is not physically a working washing machine on the premises. The ad also stated sky tv was available, it was not. There were only free to air shows and we had to rewire the tv to even get this to work.
During our stay, the dishwasher didn’t work properly, we later found that it was all clogged up hence the dirty dishes. When we arrived, over half of the dishes in the kitchen cupboards were dirty. We had to wash everything before we used it and we found a saucepan with food left in the bottom. One of the double bed mattresses was well past it’s used by date and sunk almost to the ground when you lay on it. The other double bedroom was very musty and damp.
We felt the need to provide honest feedback as we feel this listing is disingenuous and want to give a heads up to future stayers as we had quite high expectations from the listing and considering the price we paid.
