Disliked: Cleanliness
Lovely comfortable house
Hillview is a lovely comfortable house right in the centre of Minehead. We had a lovely stay with the extended family and everybody had plenty of space. Hillview is a little tired around some of the edges (stair case to name one) and although bathrooms, bedding and towels were all clean the cooker wasn't (with a dirty grill pan left form the previous renters), the floor in and around the cooker not very clean and the rungs of the hob need a good clean. The dishwasher needed salt and the filters hadn't been cleaned so a lot of the crockery and cutlery in the drawers had ingrained food. Also the information in the folders about bin day was very vague and the bins were full to the brim on our arrival. We phoned to check when the bin day was but didn't get a definitive answer resulting in the bins building up during our stay. But none of this affected the enjoyment of our stay. Thank you.
Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023
