“The apartment is in a good location, and has plenty of accommodation and room.”
The facilities/services and cleanliness are as described. The boiler didn’t work on the the first 3 days, although Sykes/Lakes cottages customer services responded well, to have to regularly re-pressure the system was an irritant.
However, the decoration and white goods are dated and the overall feeling is of a tired apartment requiring updating. In particular,there was a smell of “wet dog” when we entered the apartment, the freezer is noisy and disturbs you in the night in the rear bedroom. The kitchen and bathrooms are particularly tired, peeling countertops, dirty grout, rusting radiators. There are no pictures of the “main” bathroom on the website which is small and has fittings which are coming away from the wall.
There are the usual irritations of rationed washing up liquid, fewer dishwasher tablets than the number of days stays etc….
I will not be making a rebooking
Thank you for your feedback - we appreciate all feedback, both positive and negative. We can only apologise for the boiler causing problems, but delighted LCH were able to help. We take on board your comments re the bathrooms and kitchen, and although it’s a shame it wasn’t in time for your stay, we are actually having new ones fitted within the next month, along with a new boiler! We hope you may reconsider and visit us another time. Property Owner
