Orchards in Orpington

A complete dive would not let my pet stay in there. Absolute shit very insecure parting very dodgy area. Stay away with never recommend. Absolute disgusting.

Describe it properly, very very unsatisfied

The kitchen was very well equipped for cooking, even to the point of having a spice rack, a box of various kinds of tea and an abundance of pots, oven dishes and utensils. The best in any self catering accommodation I've used.

The sofas aren't very comfortable, and there isn't enough lounge seating for the number of people who can stay. The decor is a bit tired and there seems to be a damp issue in the smallest bedroom. The street is very narrow so you have to park with your wheels on the pavement, which is not great.

The location was perfect for what we needed. We were a 3 generation family and the house was perfect for all in terms of bedrooms, space and amenities.

Location was good for where we was working

location 3 separate bedroom as stated on the add

On first inspection it's a great place! You get a lot for the money, and it's quite pleasant. Feels very homely and a short walk from the train station and some other restaurants. They provide a lot of items to use in the kitchen and a nice supply of tea/coffee. There's a lot of nice small details and stuff avaliable including games to play and a TV to watch in the evenings Good amount of space to work or relax. The washing machine and dryer combo were very useful! Lots of good information provided and loads of space.

There's two main cautions before/when booking here; 1) The place needs deep cleaning! For me, this wasn't an issue, but my partner had a bad allergic reaction to the place on the first night, which only got exasperated badly on the second night. Would reconmend the owners give the place a good deep clean or be weary booking if you have dog/cat/dust allergies. The towels and the dryer lint also needed cleaning. 2) The owner tried to hold our deposit because we washed the towels before we used them and because "we broke the toilet". We argued with her, and she said that she would only charge us a £10 admin fee, which we were happy with, and she returned the rest of the deposit. For a cheap place, I'm not fussed about the extra £10 fee, but maybe consider taking some photos/videos before you leave the place as proof. Also let her know if there's anything you don't like before check out.

We arrived in the UK late in the evening with kids. Due to a scam we found out we did not have a place to sleep. We were very relieved when Sarah could accommodate us very last minute!

The layout was perfect for a three generation family. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well laid out and very well supplied with everything that we needed, even a garlic press! The house was warm and the hot water was hot. Very useful rear courtyard with an awning over the seating area, which meant it could be used in the rain. For the almost 2 year old the stairs were steep but they were OK. Good hand rails. You need to pre-order a cot and highchair. Laminate floor meant it was easy to clean up. There is a park and playground about 5-6 minutes walk from the house. Very good communication from the owner. Would happily stay there again.

Nothing worth mentioning. There were steps up to the house from the road parking, but it was possible to walk further and avoid the steps. Also a couple of steps up into the house. Mentioning for pushchairs. I would not mark the house down for this as it is not marketed as accessible.

This was booked for members of our team who were working locally and they reported a pleasant stay with everything as described, clean and comfortable and would stay again. Thank you

Good size for two adults and infant. Comfortable.

Garden was a bit over grown and needed high chair and baby gate for stairs.

The host accepted our request to stay at very short notice ; we had just been let down by a booking on Airbnb . she pulled out all the stops for which we were grateful . good parking , coffee etc
