Lesley House

It was beautiful

I felt itchy most nights and upon returning, I’ve seen bedbugs. I could not speak to the landlord anytime I wanted to. You don’t get access to the fridge to keep your food fresh.

The owner was lovely and it was really good value for money The bed mattress was very firm

I encountered alot of bed bug bites from staying here. I made the property aware and to be fair the owner refunded the cost of the stay with no argument straight away. The owner also apologised and said that they would close and treat the room. However I have since had to pay an exterminator £125 as well as buy cream and anti histamines to get rid of the bites. Bed bugs travel with you so I have had to have my car and suitcase sprayed to ensure none travelled back into my own home. The property is a little dated but was clean. The shower is not ideal as it's over a bath which is at an angle, I ended up having a shower at my friend's.

large bedroom, very comfortable bed free off road parking

tv channels unavailable much of the time because of poor signal I guess. Netflix would have been a good option but not available

Price was good. Free WiFi. Parking. Location good.

Very old fashioned, dull and tired looking, cobwebs everywhere, bed old and creaky, old and past its best bedding, musty smell as soon as you walked into property, no bedside table, no lamp, kettle not clean inside with lots of limescale, no proper shower just rubber hose attached to bath taps, no information or directions as to locking up and leaving key on checkout.

The shower

The view over the small, "wild" garden at the back.

The estate is quite a long way out of town. I didn't see many facilities in the immediate area (but then I didn't explore much).

Host very amenable. Parking on-street at no cost.

No TV in room. Property extremely dated.
