Thomas D.

A good spot but it's starting to run down.
The basic setup here is fantastic. Really well situated, and at a point in the past the property was clearly set up to be ideal. Since then it looks like things have begun to run down in the way that any short term let always does eventually. Things to keep an eye out for: Every knife and utensil has a better than 50/50 chance of being blunt or broken. The vast majority of the hob won't light, so avoid planning to cook for the property's capacity. Not all appliances will be working. Expect one dishwasher rather than the two, or if you're in our position, half a dishwasher as the only working one will have its runners trashed. Be very careful handling the kitchen tap, which has not been properly fixed. Any battery powered items like scales probably won't have a battery. The hot tub will be available, but only on the second day of your stay. When we stayed, we were told immediately that the previous guests had been particularly rowdy, and that their stay had necessitated an extra house cleaner for a day, if that's the case they did a good job, and I was initially under the impression that our experience was a bit of a one off. Unfortunately, when I contacted the host about the above issues, they opted to tell me that my group *also* necessitated an extra house cleaner before sending me a picture of a slightly damaged stool neither me nor my guests have ever seen. Either we have been mixed with the previous group, or this is a standard tactic. Take many pictures.
