“Cute, but relatively unclean and needs refurbishing.”
I stayed for two weeks. I loved the flat in a lot of ways, especially the window sear. The bed was comfy and although on the surface the flat looked clean, I can tell you it was not. Items had not bee… More

“Its all in the detail”

Response from the owner Thank you for taking the time to review my property, and its great that everyone agrees how comfy the bed is and shower, I have spent a lot of money ensuring a lovely night sleep ! However I would urge people reading your review to look at the other reviews left.(and my certificate of excellence) I cannot understand why you think cleanliness is an issue , I always try and check my cleaners work, which I did on this occasion and it was immaculate. I agree the toilet seat was broken (not the seat but one of the brackets ) it had just broken and the cleaner had written a note to draw your attention to it, as did not want you sliding off ! (not a problem unless very energetic !) I have had the seat repaired. It was not a 5 minute job, otherwise I would have had it done before of course.(it had just been broken) It took 2 days as I had to order a seat to exactly fit the toilet as is a good quality toilet and one of the shelf was not compatible . I am sorry if you thought too many rules, again no one else has ever mentioned this at all, and I think it is reasonable to take out your rubbish, your comments are misleading because I would not charge £20 if you hadn't stripped your beds, this was mearly to help the cleaner. It is just that on an occasions before I have had people leave all their greasy washing up still in the bowl and leave rubbish all over the floor. (I wont go into detail but it can be very eye opening !) I am sorry you had your coat stolen, seems very strange that you should feel the need to mention that in your review. It is a lovely lovely village pub and a mystery why someone would feel the need to take a coat. I had asked during your stay if I could do anything to help, and you had not replied, if I had know Pavarotti could be heard upstairs I am sure my lovely neighbour would have turned it down. Sorry but just feel I needed to reply to your points !
