"I was not happy with the cleanliness of this cottage, sadly."
As a nurse, I cannot help being aware of infection control issues .
On arrival, although the windows were open, there was an overwhelming smell of air freshener , which did little to mask the underlying smell of damp/ mustiness.
There was dust on the towel rail in the cloakroom
Dirty marks on the paintwork , skirting board on the stairs
Chipped crockery
Greasy crockery, cooking utensils , cutlery
A dishwasher in the kitchen would be beneficial in ensuring that these items are properly cleaned . Although the quality of the cutlery was not good and had wooden handles, so might not fare well was he din a dishwasher .
Oven and cooker need cleaning
Out of date and unlabelled food pouches in the cupboards
Corkscrew which was bent beyond being useful
Shower head needs a very good clean or replacing
Dirty table mats
House did not hold the heat in the evenings , so we were cold. There were throws on each of the chairs, probably to use when cold, but I was not confident that they are cleaned between guests so did not use them .
There were dehumidifier pots throughout the house
The wallpaper in the bathroom is peeling off
A neighbour’s dog kept yapping and barking early morning so this did not lead to a peaceful stay, but that was the least of the problems .
The welcome pack is woeful and consisted of a packet of not so nice shortbread biscuits and a very cheap bottle of nondescript wine, which we left . It would have been more welcoming and useful had this pack included teabags and milk. The nearest shop is 6 miles away and this was arrival was late on a Sunday afternoon. We did have milk with us and found 5 teabags remaining in a box in the cupboard . A chance to showcase Yorkshire produce , eg Yorkshire tea bags , Yorkshire made biscuits .
Not quite sure why there is a dish of used ring pulls from cans gathering dust
I have left my comments in the visitors book there which, I am sorry to say are all negative .
