Host & Stay - Mallard Cottage

Overall it was an amazing place to stay. Many stairs so not good for anyone with mobility problems.

The standard of fixtures and fittings very high. Cleanliness high too. Only thing that let it down was the quality of mattresses did not match the rest of quality.

Central location with bonus of parking space

Living room area not cleaned, scraps of food on floor, dining chairs dirty, grill pan in oven still had foil in it covered in grease 🤢, utensils not cleaned, outside decked and paved area very dirty! Algae covered paving, deck covered in leaves and twigs, glass balcony surround covered in bird droppings, Astro turf covered in weeds , hence did not use which was a shame as weather was beautiful. Key for bin storage area didn’t work.

WE did not breakfast

Everything! Had everything we needed and was so clean. We don’t want to leave.

Location

The cottage was close to the centre and had 1 designated parking space. The 3 separate bedrooms were really comfy, allowing a good night's sleep, and the location was very quiet.

Unfortunately, we arrived at the property to a significant leak from the top floor sink, resulting in water leaking through the middle floor ceiling. We rang the hosts who acted upon this immediately, sending someone out. STEPs - there are a lot before you get to the property and inside the 3 story property itself. I live in a bungalow, 😆 It gave my legs a good work out, however mum found it a bit tough. Although it was generally clean and tidy we found empty Carling cans under the sink and outside on the table, no big deal, but a cleaner gets paid to check. Also, all the beautiful curly light/lamp fittings we full of dust.
