The dishwasher was not working well despite being used according to instructions. The first floor bathroom needs repairs to tiles, bath panel and window sill. The door lock does not work. One of patio paving stones had become detached and was on grass making trip hazards. There was no microwave in kitchen despite being in description.

The weather unfortunately wasn't on our side this weekend so we were very happy to have such a nice house to stay inside out of the rain

The kitchen/dining area is the standout and most modern room in the house and is where we spent much of our time when gathered together. Extremely clean and well facilitated property and the wine and treats that greeted us was a nice touch as well, thank you.
