Great location

Lovely house and great location, quiet end of town, 5 minutes walk to beach and town. The cleaning was the only let down. Unfortunately all 4 beds in the sleep out were unmade, cleaning of bathroom could have been a higher standard, also no hand soap in either of the toilets/bathrooms. Aside from that it’s a great property and we would book again.

Have been accused of stealing the bbq cover

The house was great and in a great location but have subsequently been told they are sending me an invoice for a bbq cover. We cleaned the bbq and replaced cover and it was there when we left but apparently not there when someone checked property! So they want me to pay! I would have thought my responsibility was over when I left. And they don’t believe me. So won’t be using bach care again. Not happy
