“Fabulous place to stay”

Reviewed 17 Sep 2018

Fran and Bill could not have been more helpful. The heating was on when we arrived and the fridge and cupboards held all the essentials, including milk and juice as well as bread and cereals, condiments and so on. There were comfortable beds and fluffy towels and necessaries in the bathroom. Lovely hot shower/bath. The rental is a five minute walk into town, with a good view of the Scolty hill and golf course across the road. The sitting room was comfortable with a TV, radio and plenty of tourist information, supplemented by our hosts. There are plenty of places nearby to enjoy, including some wonderful SNT places.

Response from the owner We apologise for this late response. Unfortunately in the week prior to your visit we had suffered from a flooding caused by a fracture in the shower mixer unit behind the plasterboard in the downstairs shower room. The soaked plasterboard was responsible for the damp smell. Time has dried out the plasterboard and consequently the smell has been eliminated. We had not realised that you stored your cases in the cupboard closest to the location of the flood. Regards Bill
