This place does what it says on the tin. It’s a house that can sleep seven in Upminster at a pretty reasonable price, but set your expectations accordingly.
The bedding and furniture were clean and functional, the rooms were as described in terms of layout.
The house is very tired and renovations and decoration don’t seem to have been completed throughout. The house is incredibly basic in terms of what is there with barely any furniture (the ‘dining room’ was just an empty room with a clothes dryer in it). We also really struggled to find electric sockets that weren’t in use from various electrical items and routers- in one bedroom you could use a single socket to charge a phone or have a bedside lamp but not both. More importantly, while there were beds enough for seven, there were not dining table chairs for that amount, and only three forks. We were barely provided with enough towels for the four adults and three children staying.
John was a communicative host, and responded very quickly.
Ultimately it worked for us as somewhere to stay for two nights while out all day doing other stuff, but I wouldn’t recommend for those looking for somewhere to spend much time.
