What guests are saying
Great location and property.
The property has all that you need for a break away from home. Excellent view of the estuary and 1min walk from the mariners and 5 mins to a couple of other restaurants and cafe. It is a little tired and could do with a full deep clean/ refresh. The key box could do with replacing as it is difficult to open due to age and rusty/damage. It would help if there were instructions on how to gain hot water as this took a good 24hrs to work out and then the heating came on in the night.
2 week stay The tumble dryer did not work after our 4th day at the property.
We were offered another tumble dryer but that also did not work. An electrician was called & he let us know that there was a faulty switch where the tumble dryer was. After we reported that neither tumble dryer worked, the owners let us know that apparently the dishwasher & tumble dryer cannot be run at the same time. The electrics on this house need improvement. The washing machine is old & needs replacing. Does not spin effectively & therefore laundry comes out quite damp. There is no washing line at the property, so we had to dry our towels & clothes on small racks. The hoover/vacuum was not effective & smelled when it was used. We tried to clean it but could not find the cause of the smell when used.
Mention it’s a Superking in 1st bedroom, kingsize in 2nd bedroom.
Great to have an outside shower. Good to have parking for two cars. Mention Coffee machine needs small pods. Good to have 3 bathrooms. Lots of storage for clothes. Like the open plan living space. Main bathroom could do with an update. Mattress bit uncomfortable in 2nd bedroom. Like the outdoor courtyard, could it have a rotary clothes line maybe?
