Manor House OVER 25 ONLY kids with adults allowed

Cleanliness and comfort

Well what can I say NOTHING

First and foremost may I just deter anyone from staying at this property! To start off, the bin was directly outside the property overflowing with bin bags and a foul scent; not the best first impression of a property. Next, we discovered that the front door was unlocked on arrival, as respect for the owner, we sent a message to make them aware that the property was not locked up correctly on arrival. Once inside, we were met with an overwhelming smell of detoll, (we are aware that this is from cleaning, but it was literally choking us with the pungent scent). The stairs creaked and cracked so loudly, we thought they were going to break underneath us. Showers and hand washing just wasn’t possible due to the lack of hot water in the upstairs bathroom, which is a literal deprivation of basic hygiene. The main bedroom at the front of the house was roomy and looked decent at a glance until we investigated the bed. 4 illuminous yellow stains on the bedsheets and the overbearing nightmare of pubic hairs. The living room had rips of wallpaper and paint coming away at the roof, the house was described as having free WiFi, however, when we tried to connect to the EE, it wanted a £5.99 charge for 1hour. Trip hazard was found in the doorway to the kitchen with the carpet gripper unsecured and sticking up. The back door was a huge struggle to close, all 3 of us tried for up to an hour trying to close it. Then, we found our ultimatum to leave- a deceased, decaying mouse in the back garden. It was evident that the house had been recently visited by a ‘cleaner’ due to the overwhelming smell of detoll, so why was the rotting mouse left on display in the back garden? Communication from the property owner was severely limited and lacked support. Absolutely underwhelmed, we left approximately an hour after arrival due to the atrocity of the place, taking us back another £100 for a hotel. I agree that you get what you pay for, but the £70 for 1 night was too much for what the house...

Useful location and spacious living room, with fun spinning chair

Half of the lights didn't work, and the bathroom light flickered. The Internet was not present the day we arrived (had been broken by previous tenant) and had to prompt three times to find out what had happened and organize a replacement internet, which was weak. Also very bare kitchen with no oven glove.

It was convenient to enter . Spacy living area .

We didn't have good signal and requested if possible to have the advertised WiFi however I didn't get any response. We managed in the end . As others have mentioned unfortunately the bathroom hot tap wasn't working , and the front room bedroom didn't have any operating lights apart from one ( again not a big issue as we made do) back kitchen door wouldn't lock from the inside so a bit unsafe . Look it was ok for the money spent.

Fire place was beautiful

There was a socket in hall way hanging off and I was panicking incase my 3 year old touched it smelt like damp bed was very uncomfortable and in kitchen there was mould and i bathroom there was broken tiles vey sharp so we stayed here from about 1am till 9.30am on first day our plane didn't land till 11.30pm hence why we never entered property till 1am then 2nd night we booked hotel elsewhere as I was panicking about the socket and sharp tiles
