Host & Stay - Threadneedle Cottage

Lovely cozy little house, great location. Perfect base for a family stay and much more enjoyable than a hotel.

A couple of fixtures and fittings like the shower doors could do with updating but these are very small details

cleaning not done properly hairs on bedding and in bathroom bedroom stool broken not very clean paint on walls dirty no hand rail on stairs it was difficult to walk up and down them

Location in town centre

Beds and how clean the house was

Compact and close to town , very easy to return to cottage in the day if needed

Stairs quite steep but manageable if steady

The location was convenient and it looked nice on the pictures.

The 25 quid damage deposit,honestly the place is ready for a refurb and nothing like the pictures, once we actually found the cottage as the directions were awful.we discovered not only is it nothing like the pictures but it's right next to a night club that plays music until 2am.. ,it certainly wasn't clean with cobwebs in multiple places ,mould in both showers,and very dusty. We also found a dummy just under the bed when we dropped something and it rolled under there,aswell as a tablet of the medicinal variety..not ideal if you go with dogs or children. The beds were awful almost like they were made out of old slinky's,as previous reviews have stated,as were the sofas.the walls downstairs have had mould wiped off near the stairs but you can still see the spores coming through, downstairs under the stairs is exposed and full of boxes and cleaning products,I'm not sure why as they clearly weren't used. There is also a second door downstairs which would have helped to keep the noise out but it is currently hanging off its hinges and can't be shut,the main entrance door the top left panel has been kicked in and repaired very badly, certainly wouldn't regard the property as secure. The plinth near the fridge needs re fitting ,the floor downstairs was sticky,the TV unit is peeling,the middle bedroom carpet was stained as is the stairs carpet. Also the majority of the internal doors that are on their hinges are difficult to shut,if possible at all.. the middle bathroom cabinet had toothpaste stains from the previous guests where they had stood electric toothbrushes up,and the upstairs toilet the handle spins all the way around before it flushes. The windows were also mouldy throughout. The stairs also are nowhere near what I would regard as pet friendly,never mind friendly towards children or the elderly.there honestly is probably more but this is just off the top of my head.

Location Bedding and towels were clean

Smaller than photographs implied Beds were lumpy and uncomfortable Cobwebs in 1st shower, pubes in top shower. Sticky bedside table and dressing tables with cup Mark's, fridge was dirty Front door bottom hinge not connected, front door wooden step plinth disconnected and trip hazard. Clutter under the stairs
