We absolutely loved the position of this property and it was ideal for six adults and three children. And the dogs. However we wished the owner loved the house as much as we loved it's position... fixing the little niggly things -like the missing connectors on the blind pulleys, the peeling wall paper, the shower that won't turn off, the gaps in the kitchen floor, the lock on the main bathroom which is just a screw head, the grim back alley where the minuscule bbq is located - would so improve the overall impression. Graeme said he was no diy man but these are teeny tiny things not major renovations. Many people have said the property is tired and we would agree with that.

Hi I don’t understand your low score, you sent over 19 queries all answered immediately your score is 40% of my average, I know you thought it was 6 bedrooms but states 5 with two extra trundle beds in the orangery which I provided.
