    V. and heating and local information such as doctor etc. The owner had to be telephoned several times on these matters. There was no central heating at the start of our stay, and finally we had to ask for the system to be looked at.This was done but left us with no way of adjustment. So we felt cold when we came back after a day out. We did assume [but wrongly] that there would be a lavatory in the en suite. This meant going up or down a flight of stairs to use this facility - not a good idea ...

    V. and heating and local information such as doctor etc. The owner had to be telephoned several times on these matters. There was no central heating at the start of our stay, and finally we had to ask for the system to be looked at.This was done but left us with no way of adjustment. So we felt cold when we came back after a day out. We did assume [but wrongly] that there would be a lavatory in the en suite. This meant going up or down a flight of stairs to use this facility - not a good idea for old or very young children. There were beds enough for 6, but 6 in the house would have been a nightmare. The shower needs attention. It dripped constantly, and the tray was cracked and taped over. Not up to muster. We chose not to use it. With guests in the house it was difficult. The dishwasher had no salt and none was provided. The blinds at the windows need urgent attention. Now to outside. The bushes are very overgrown around the front door area thus making it gloomy and access to the key box a bit of a challenge, The side parking was inhibited by over grown greenery, and the back gate was not secure. The' home from home 'experience was NOT 'home from home' for us and we left 24 hours early.
