WORST EXPERIENCE EVER
Outside issues:
-Difficult access for vehicles into property
-Gate sticks occasionally
-Ants, centipedes, snakes, mosquitos
-Pool light dislodged during our stay.
-Pool water was cold
Inside issues:
-No AC. Property was too warm to sleep at night. Portable fans didn't help.
-Mosquitos (no window screens)
-Multiple tripping hazards
-Trecherous stairs between main and lower floors
-Damp and musky smell in lower guest room
-Twin beds in lower guest room were very uncomfortable
-Privacy issues with lower bathroom (no blinds on windows)
-Toilet seat cover in lower bathroom was broken. We had to fix it ourselves.
-Kitchen stovetop burners were difficult to light due to ignition not working. We found a barbeque sparker but it was also not working. We ate cold meals.
-Poor wifi
-Realtor showed property during our stay giving only half day notice
Finally:
After waiting several days for refund of our damage deposit, I contacted the owner's representative. The owner emailed back and accused us of causing water damage to a chair in the lower guest room and said she was withholding part of our damage deposit. We insisted we had never touched any chairs in this room and requested a full refund of our deposit. She relented at first and then changed her mind and kept the damage deposit as well as charging us an extra £50 for her time in corresponding with us.
Beautiful location but worst short term life experience we've ever had.
