I’ll start by saying it was the perfect storm - hot weather, large windows in the living area on the first floor, new years week & therefore limited trades to fix things. Unfortunately the aircon was not working on our arrival. For the majority of our stay we were therefore unable to use the kitchen/dining/lounge area because it was unbearably warm. The owner tried to get the issue rectified but because of the timing it was impossible in the duration of our stay.
The roof terrace has no shade at all unfortunately. No umbrella and problems with planning permission for something more permanent. We could only use the terrace at night because it was too hot during the day.
The house itself is beautifully decorated and well equipped.
The bedrooms and bathrooms are as described, the street facing bedroom is a little more compact and a bit noisier. Fortunately the aircon did work in the bedrooms, so we had some respite from the heat.
We did receive a partial refund for the issues incurred.
