Family Home in Seaside Town

TOTALLY SCAMMED !!!!! THE PROPERTY WAS EMPTY. KEY CODE SENT TO ME BY BOOKING.COM ON THE DAY OF ARRIVAL DID NOT WORK. AFTER BEING TOLD BY BOOKING.COM THAT THEY WOULD ARRANGE ALTERNATIVE ACCOMODATION WITHIN 45 MINUTES, STILL WAITING FROM THEM TO REPLY AFTER 4 DAYS.

Very nice, specious property. I really enjoyed our stay, the reviews got me a bit worried about the state of the house, but to be honest they are either super unreasonable or the landlord had addressed them. I could see few marks on the wall or a wobbly drawer, but I find it ridiculous to be bothered by it. The house is big, spacious, clean, kitchen is well equipped, there are two big dinning tables, so plenty of space to sit everyone. Great place to stay on my opinion!

Showers weren’t hot, dripping tap in the kitchen. Holes in walls. Garden front and back full of weeds you struggled to get up the steps to the front door due to the weeds and the hand rail broken. This was a serious hazard for the children, they couldn’t play out the back due to the over grown garden.

The property is in a very good, accessible location with a good amount of room and space. Shops, bar, sea side and all others attraction place were very close to house.

Overall, maintenance is not good; wear and tear marks must be repaired in a timely manner. The rubbish bin must be empty for the next visitor. Wall clocks and mirrors are missing.

Large house that seemed reasonable price for the size

I stayed here for two nights in early August. On arrival, the bedding had an unwashed smell. On the morning of departure, I saw a bug in the bed. The next day I developed multiple itchy rash marks/bites that have lasted over a week and caused significant discomfort. When I contacted the host, the response was dismissive and denied any possibility of a problem, despite several past reviews mentioning musky smells or guests feeling the need to rewash bedding. My main concern is that there could be a hygiene or pest issue that has not been investigated, which could impact other guests.

The house was located in St Leonard’s, not Hastings, so involved a car journey or bus ride to the centre. Although Fern Rd is quite a busy road, the location felt quiet. Also, near Tesco metro for limited supplies.

We were greeted by overflowing dustbins, rubbish and broken glass strewn over the drive and very unkempt garden. Not auspicious. During the night we heard wildlife raiding the bins, which clearly had not been emptied for some time. A complaint to the company We Love Property resulted in the excess rubbish and glass being cleared the following day, but bins were still overfilled, so nowhere to leave our rubbish. A predictable consequence of this, we saw a rat running up the drive the following day. Bedding was poor quality and cleaning of crockery and pans was necessary before use. We also had to clean out two rancid drains, one on bathroom basin, one on a shower, as they were clogged and about to overflow. Simple touches such as a coat rack, mirror in bathroom, better quality bedding would make a huge difference

House is stunning Beds were really comfy . Spacious for the amount of people that were in the property

Unkept garden. Unsafe front steps handrail. Someone in our group used it as they jad back issues and it fell off . 10am check out

Very spacious

The house was not really that clean and tidy, the bed linen had a very damp musty smell so much so that we had to wash the duvet covers. Only 3 teaspoons, the garden was so overgrown with weeds about 4 foot high that our 5 year old granddaughter could not play on the grass, garden furniture was wet and dirty, there was a large plant pot outside full of cigarette butts,television very temperamental, worked on occasions, so overall a little disappointing.

Very minor. Little bit of wear and tear in places but overall very good. Maybe a few more teaspoons and a better selection of glasses. But as I say very minor.
