    “Lovely house, only issues was that I think it could do with a deep clean, for example window sills, inside cupboards, ceiling and corners needed dusting.”

    Love the decor and furniture and the conservatory view is stunning. The cover to the hot tub was broken and there was lots of debris in the tub itself so didn’t look like it had been cleaned but it maybe that debris had got through the broken part of the cover. I think a new cover may have been delivered while we were there so hopefully this is now sorted
