“Property was unique and quirky as you would expect however a four tick rating seemed high in our opinion.”
Overal thel property appeared clean however layers of dust over extractor fans,cobwebs hanging from ceiling/beams etc,yes I understand it’s an old building,didn’t need to be there.Towels in one room upon entry weren’t folded & on bed as per the other rooms giving impression that they had been missed on change over.The sofas were not particularly clean and this had been previously commented on in visitor book.We were only left one set of keys for 1st few days which was awkward as the family went separate ways during the day.TV didn’t work over the week due to aerial issues and when it did come on we only had around 6 channels to choose from-not great when you have a combination of kids and rain!Saturday morning we were awoken to noise outside, I went out to find United Utilities had dug up the single track drive into/out of property which had been agreed with owners however we had been given no warning to get our cars out.Luckily I went out just before they drove off and the guys doing the work moved things around so I could just squeeze out past the excavation-if not we could have been stuck for hours.
The property has a lot of character and is a fairly good location as a base for the Peak District and Manchester area.Personally I think the pictures shown on the website are from when the property was first listed with most items pictured still being used which is a shame because with a little bit of TLC,this property has the potential to be something special.
