The curtains in the lounge wonât properly draw and need taking down and re-hanging or replacing with new heading tapes and hooks. There is a foul aroma of urine in the ground floor WC that comes from the toilet brush. The main bathroom shower surround is falling off and the rotten/black mouldy wood is showing underneath. The garden wasnât even swept or shrubbery trimmed. There is no welcome pack of any description, not even any kitchen roll or even 1 extra toilet roll. For the money charged for this house itâs quite unacceptable. Iâve stayed twice now, but for this standard, at such a high price, there wonât be a third stay.

It was extremely well equipped with everything you need for your stay. There were a couple of very minor maintenance issues that Iâm sure have or will be addressed (curtains off hooks and broken blind) but nothing that impacted our stay. It may be helpful if the owner could leave details of where the thermostat is located as we took an age to find it on a chilly evening! (On a shelf on the dresser in kitchen). Although the parking is on street we had no problem parking outside the cottage each day. We will definitely return when we stay in Aldeburgh.
