Stephanie, just to let you know there were a few issues with the rental.
Firstly, no gas and both bottles empty - needed to wait for maintenance to replace, very frustrating when there are 2 bottles.
Secondly, the BBQ has no temperature control once lit (which is very difficult), also cannot be turned off as knobs won’t control flame so we needed to remove the gas connection from the wall bayonet- very frustrating.
The area outside under the patio is covered in oil stains caused no doubt by no drip tray on the BBQ. Making sitting outside unpleasant and smelling so the flies love it.
Thirdly, we paid to have dogs knowing there was a dog run/fenced of dog area, this hasn’t been mowed all season so putting dogs in there is a no go.
Lastly, the pool gate does not automatically lock as the pole is loose, not great with young kids and no doubt illegal, an no it’s not a new issue just not being checked prior to guest arriving.
Would love to send you some pictures but no way to attach here.
The house itself is lovely but when you rent a place for the family you want to facilities mentioned to be of an acceptable standard.
Needless to say, not a great place to stay.
