“Game of 2 halves as they say, first half the house is lovely and well located, warm and cosy.”
However the contents inside are at times dire. The kitchen utensils and pans are terrible and look like they came from any old place the owners could get them from, come on guys get some new stuff. Crockery is OK but a big shortage on things like decent measuring jugs etc. The sofa opposite the fire is fit for the tip, not because it looks bad but because it's like sitting on the floor, the guts have gone out of it. The week was made somewhat sickly though by the end of the week strip down of the bedding as requested. Owners you should make sure that when you take duvet covers off the duvet is presentable, the main bedroom duvet had a big brown stain on it, don't even want to think what might have caused that, get yourself some new cleaners if they cant see things like that. Also mentioned by others is the TV, an ancient JVC that's about as smart as a brick is not good enough these days, nothing wrong with the connection speed, just the TV does not support the latest tech. And yes the signal is rubbish at times when watching terrestrial TV.
The driveway as mentioned by others is at times inaccessible if you have a decent sized car, get rid of the metal post and 300mm of the wall, sorted in an hour.
Garden is not secure for dogs, also mentioned before, and needs a gate to the driveway, the rest is reasonable. It's a shame, it could and should be so good, but unfortunately it's let down by what's inside it, so no we won't be visiting again, and we go to the Lakes every year, and really this is our first issue in 25 years of staying in various locations, and the first negative review we've posted. 2 stars for the property, but nothing for the contents unfortunately.
