• "Location was excellent."

  But not impressed with other things like having to have a new shower fitted whilst staying there as we could not control the temperature of the shower.The toilet flush was diabolical.Mirror light and fan not working in bathroom.

  Goodness me, you phoned me and explained that the shower was difficult, and you were having problems with adjusting the temperature. I arrived to show you how it worked, with ease, but decided to replace the shower for your convenience. And here you are still complaining. I explained that the toilet flush has always been without much pressure, it is slow to flush and might need extra flushing. You seemed to take this onboard when I spoke to you. There are plenty of lights in the bathroom. Again I explained that to fix the light in the mirror would mean throwing away a perfectly adequate mirror. Your husband said he was able to shave with ease. Not every mirror has a light fitting attached, however we seem to survive. You seem to have had a terrible time and these issues must have ruined your holiday. Even a new shower didn't cheer you up. When we discussed these issues face to face you seemed to understand. So even if I had fitted a whole new bathroom you probably would have complained. There is no pleasing some people. Property Owner

• "A nice place to stay and good location for exploring the area."

  Some other feedback/suggestions for the property listing (please do not include if published) - The mattress was not great, lumpy and pretty uncomfortable so it needs replacing. - The owner was coming into the garage (to access items stored there) whilst I was staying in the annexe - he was friendly and polite and didn't come into the annexe itself but it was a little disconcerting as I was not expecting anyone to be opening the garage door whilst I was sat in the living room with the access door from the garage propped open to keep the annex cool. Perhaps it would be helpful to advise future guests that the owner may access the garage whilst they are staying. Also, the directions could have been a clearer as I needed to drive through the village a couple of times before finding it! It would help to say that Goose Hill is actually the 'main' road through the village, the B3157 (and maybe note that the road is also on the flat, not a hill at all which threw me!). Please consider including a What3Words reference as this would have helped enormously. Thank you :-)

• "Our review is not intended to be negative in itself, without it being a constructive critique."

  If it was for a one or two night stay, things may have been seen in a different light, however, we had booked Millmead Annex for 28 days, having said that, the length of stay should have been much more comfortable than it was. In addition and adding context, our stay did coincide with a continuous heat wave. Firstly, location! Perfect for our needs and especially the short walk to the cafe and pub. However, Millmead sits at the edge of the village on a track leading to the equipment supply depot for all the local farm tractors and machinery which ran 24/7 it being summer and harvesting season. (worth checking before booking). Although a fan was supplied for the bedroom, the lack of any air conditioning meant having the windows open on the hot sleepless nights made worse by the harvesting traffic. The shower never actually ever worked properly and disappointingly we were unable to sit in the garden as it was extremely overgrown and not representative of the advertising photos. The fact one had to ‘limbo’ around the bottom of the bed due to the adjacent sloping roof, which in reality is much more severe than perceived in the photos. There were simple things absent, like any salt or pepper, although, it has to be said the owner was receptive to our request for the shower taps to be repaired and the boiler re-started. The accommodation came supplied with a broom only and when we requested a vacuum one was promptly supplied, but such a shame we had to ask for such basics. Millmead has very poor internet reception and no free to air tv (extremely frustrating if you were hoping to watch the free to view fifa world cup !!). Also when the main house is occupied it can have three cars making parking a little bit of a juggling act. This may all seem small points exacerbated by seasonal factors but aggregated become contentious issues which go towards the overall poor experience.
