Extremely Disappointed

This listing is quite misleading. SO disappointed. We ended up spending 4 nights elsewhere in the middle of our booking and paying essentially double just to get out of there. This is NOT A HOUSE it is a duplex/flat/apartment with shared walls. I was shocked when we pulled up, you drive through a somewhat disheveled apartment community with trash/clutter piled up in yards. The yard smells of gas, and the outdoor area is sad and unkempt. There is not a "deck," there is a 4x4 square space in the yard with a rotting bench and 2 bucket chairs that have no cushions. The house smells of perfume covering the smell of cigarettes. My allergies were outrageous in the house. You are forbidden from managing the heat yourself. We asked that the heaters be turned off because we could feel the heat coming out, she said they were off (which some were), so the heat continued. You are right next to a main road (the A9 I believe) so with the windows open you hear the constant car noise. There are no black out curtains and very uncomfortable beds making it difficult to sleep. The kitchen table makes no sense. The kitchen cabinets, utensils, dishware, pots all needed to be washed before use. The freezer had hair and grime in the bottom. There is no coffeemaker. The bathroom had watered down "shampoo", and the "conditioner" and "body wash" were the same product. The hot water shut off in the middle of a bath on the last night. No floor mats so it was a watery mess. Some of these might seem like minor inconveniences, but overall it's just a sad and uncomfortable place to stay and by far the worst stay of our 1 month trip in Scotland. This northern area of Scotland is BEAUTIFUL beyond words and this stay did not do it justice.

A very comfortable stay in an excellent location

Excellent location for N500, visiting Orkney and local area. Accommodation very comfortable with everything you need and a Tesco superstore a few minutes drive away. Local takeaways easy to hand. A very comfortable house, which has been carefully decorated with a very comfy lounge suite for the evenings.

Nice, spacious house within walking distance of Thurso centre.

Clean, spacious and nicely decorated. Comfortable beds.

Duvet and pillows could be better quality. Not sure paying guests should be asked to strip beds and put laundry in bags though!

Welcoming and warm house in Thurso

It's a good location for Thurso, plenty space in the house and we had all we needed for our stay

There were only two big plates, we were only two people so it was fine for us, but if more people are staying and eating in it can be an issue. The heating was making quite a lot of noise which I don't remember being an issue when I stayed in the property last time, I have let the host know as it was disruptive at night.

Comfortable quiet and relaxing.

Very quiet. Very comfortable

The rather scruffy artificial lawn in the garden, gurgling radiators when heating came on.

It was fairly good.

I booked this property because I was struggling to find any where that week. The house was warm and facilities good.

Bed linen was creased in all three rooms. It did not look as if it had been ironed. It was hard to tell if the beds had been changed. No egg cups. Dust on the lamp base, which concerned me in these times as to how much cleaning had been done. There was no salt or pepper, which was explained by host as to why it was not available. I have not experienced that in any other accommodation.

Dirty place, unreasonable host.

Friendly neighbours.

Host not in the least bit accommodating, place not at all clean. We chose a house for a 3 day stay during our 2 week motorcycle NC500 holiday so that we could unpack, wash clothes and have a few quiet days. However, despite the site stating there was garage parking for our motorcycles (which cost £40k in total by the way, hence not wanting to keep them out on the street) since Covid, washing machine and dryer are kept in there, along with all bedding and towels. So...no garage. Also no washing machine available and host would not let us have access 'because of Covid' since we would 'contaminate' the bedding and towels! I appealed to her several times, explaining our needs, but this was to no avail whatsoever. She actually laughed at me and even suggested we use a laundrette! She agreed that at the time of booking, garage and white goods were included but she had since tried to remove it from the site. We were not informed of this or we would definitely have cancelled and stayed elsewhere. Other problems: - cheapest bedding ever, not ironed either; - about 8 biscuit wrappers and old tissues under mattress; - lots of debris in corners in kitchen and hallway; - bathroom splashback behind sink filthy; - dust inside wardrobes; - no bath mat; - only a tiny dribble of hand soap in bathroom, none in kitchen; - no cleaning products for bathroom - yet 5 of us stayed for 3 days; - no storage in one of the double bedrooms so this guest's clothes were on the floor - site says all bedrooms have wardrobes or drawers. This room was tiny for a double anyway. - Lots of debris under occasional table and a bright orange ping pong ball was not spotted and cleaned away from previous guests; - only seating for 4 in the lounge; - only seating for 3/4 in the garden. Garden is shabby anyway, with fake grass and lots of slippy moss from guttering where birds have pecked and dropped it. One of our guests slipped and hurt his back no this.

Beautiful house but let down by the TV, crockery, glassware and cutlery.

The unit was beautifully furnished - really really stylish - modern and beautifully uncluttered. The colour pallet used was charming.

The TV didn't work! Crockery, cutlery and glassware were a wild mixture of un-matching and unattractive odds and ends. This really let the property down. £100 - at most £200 - would sort this. The garden was uninteresting - to say the least. Too few seats outside. The house is in a brutal 1970s estate - but it is in beautiful Caithness.
