6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Disliked: Communication
Stayed at this property during the summer holidays but wouldn’t again. Not because there was anything wrong with it really apart from the sofas being very uncomfortable and there not being enough chairs to eat round the table. Only 2 when the property sleeps 4/5 people. But the biggest problem is with the property management. After booking I had emails demanding more money from me otherwise my booking would be cancelled. There was no mention of this in the property listing. As every way of communicating with them went completely ignored and being afraid of the holiday being cancelled, I had no choice but to pay more money. But after this experience I would not book this or any other property this company lists.

Lovely position BUT it was not clean at all. Mouldy curtain in the lounge/ kitchen area. No lid to the bin in the kitchen, which attracted the flies, needed to wash the glasses before we used them and they looked like they had been taken from various pubs - nothing matched! Floor was absolutely filthy and can only imagine when this was last mopped, fridge was dirty, wood work covered in dust & grime , peeling paint, I could go on! Come on Vbro, try actually status g in some of these places that you endorse, you wouldn’t stay there. The ONLY saving grace was that both beds were super comfy and had clean bedding. I’m was too afraid to look at the mattress and pillows if complete honest! The site itself…. What a let down. Stayed there a few years on the trot seven years ago before the new owners took over, afraid to say it’s gone really downhill. We stayed during the very hot period and we didn’t even have to sign in. When we arrived I went into the bar area as reception was closed. Quite gruffly told that with all the work going on ( they’d knocked down the original bar area etc) it want necessary to register the car or ourselves?! So, if there had been a fire, they would not have had a clue how many people were on the site. Unbelievable really as the whole area was on alert after two fires breaking out relatively class nearby!Wouldn’t stay again even though it was in a prime position for visiting beaches etc. Rather stay somewhere that was clean and the site valued safety.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with my recent stay. The conditions I encountered were unacceptable and significantly detracted from what should have been a relaxing holiday. Upon arrival, I was assigned to a room where several essential amenities were either non-functional or in a state of disrepair. Specifically: - The heating system was not working, making the room uncomfortably cold .- There was visible mold in the room, posing a health concern.- The microwave was out of order, preventing me from preparing simple meals.- The kettle handle melted presenting a safety hazard.- I was appalled to find blood stains on the pillows, indicating a severe lack of hygiene. . This lack of attention to guest welfare is deeply concerning.I had to abandoned my holiday and returned home Given these significant issues, I request a full refund for my stay. I have attached photographs as evidence of the conditions described above. I look forward to your prompt response and a resolution to this matter.
