The location was fantastic, right next to the abbey

The property is very close to a busy road and the windows aren’t double glazed. The kettle leaked badly and the shower head needs replacing. The two single beds are probably best for children. Given the location and the help from the property it is great value and would book again.

Location, parking. The kitchen was a good size. Double bed very comfortable.

The decor was a little dated and tired . The bathroom could do with updating. If we had taken another couple the double bedroom would have been very tight to have luggage and personal items in. As it was only us two we could use the other bedroom to store our luggage and as a dressing room. The price for three nights seemed a little steep bearing in mind it would have gone up if we had another two guest.

lovely place and very convenient for our place of work, it was a shame we couldn't book for the following week as you were fully booked!

location

the smell inside the flat was quite bad and bathroom quite dirty and kitchen units and cupboards needs cleaning

Location by the Abbey Gardens, parking, quiet

No bat mat in shower

good location. good parking. dog friendly. we’ll equipped

squeaky flooring

Great location right by Abbey Gardens and a short walk into the town centre

It could have been cleaner - there were human hairs everywhere in one of the bedrooms

Shower was like warm and no power

Location was excellent, right next door to the park which led to the Abbey. Lovely little suntrap courtyard style garden in the back,comfy beds,all facilities that we needed.

Great location near the cathedral and town centre. Everything walkable . Private off road parking Easy arrival with lockbox Lots of mugs, plates and cutlery so we only put the dishwasher on every other day. Good fridge and freezer Excellent wardrobe space Hairdryer Always lots of hot water, powerful shower

Little TLC in the apartment and very dated and scruffy in parts. Needs refurb. Maintenance, hygiene and Health and Safety should be a priority, and grubbiness in bathroom- especially sliding door frame and stained lino on floor. Shower head rusty. No soap dish in shower and rubber mat or hand grab rail is needed as shower floor slippery and dangerous, both of us had problems staying upright in shower and we are able bodied ! Does the owner ever visit personally to inspect the place for cleanliness & maintenance or check previous reviews where several issues have been mentioned some years back? Noisy bathroom fan was on 24/7 even when light turned off- needs electric repair. Also guests should not have to call a caretaker to change the thermostat temp for a short time. Bathroom was cold in mornings and the towel rack did not come on once during our stay, so soggy towels. Courtyard was dirty, we could not use as planned, it needed a weed and sweep -piles of leaves everywhere probably from last winter - and BBQ ( which we had not planned to use anyway) looked like it needed replacement after being out all winter . All the windows needed a thorough clean inside and out, some hard to open and close , very little paint on outside window frames- peeling paint and bare deteriorating wood showing. Either replace the windows or give them a proper paint job . Kitchen needs blinds on windows for privacy/warmth as overlooked and bathroom door is opposite the kitchen windows. Outside entrance area untidy with weeds. Whole place seemed neglected and uncared for, very "student" like. Seems sadly, no money is being spent on the place , it could be a beautiful property .Three times during our stay we tried to make contact with caretaker James but not had any response to specific issues we encountered. My first really poor review in 30 years of self catering so please do not let out this property if it is not ready for guests or up to scratch.

Spacious, homely, comfortable.

Road noisy.

Great central location next to Abbey Gardens with parking. It was cosy. Beautiful building.

Some of the furniture was a bit battered from use. Few windows could be opened.

Excellent location in town with parking. Like kitchen & outside space although no chairs out in Feb (was ok to sit out).

Double bed creaks and mattress & bedding could do with update. Can hear people in upstairs flat due to creaky floorboards. We could smell that dogs had been in lounge this time although everything looked clean.

Loved it

Clean kitchen, cutlery and cooking utensils

Bathroom needs renovation. And furniture needs replacing

Location superb. Layout of apartment was good and sufficient resources. Sofa wasn't as bad as other reviews had suggested.

The shower head is disgusting. We tried to clean it but it didn't really impact on it. The temperature of the water was also intermittent and not a joy to use. The freezer was so frozen over that you couldn't even open the trays; we spent over 2 hours defrosting this. We needed the freezer for our foods. The door to the freezer gets caught but we would have thought that this would have been regularly checked for any foods left and guests advised to make sure it was closing properly. Likewise the fridge froze any foods put towards the back; we had frozen limes, frozen fresh prawns and frozen cream. Hate wasted foods! The double bed is not comfortable and has only a thin bed protector on it. The bed squeaks every time you move even slightly. While we're on the subject of squeaks, while the apartment is cute in appearance the floors squeak all over the place. You can't move quietly even if you're trying. The telly signal was poor with many of the channels pixelating so badly we gave up trying to watch anything. One of the sofa's had an unpleasant stain on it. We're sure it could have been cleaned before new guests arrived. We'd read the reviews about the noise from traffic and realise that we were lucky in that we stayed during a quiet period so the road noise wasn't too bad. It would indeed be dreadful in the busier months. We looked for the bags to put our bedding into but there weren't any which then concerned us that Covid protocols were now out of the window. This is our 4th rental since May and the worse by far. We won't be using Booking.com again as the daily email from them was totally unnecessary. The lack of clarity or lack of response to telephone messages left with the host further confirms that we will avoid this property.

Great location: Can easily work there from the train station. Good Parking if you need it. Close to town center. Great sized apartment.

Great location. Easy to find and walking distance into town. Well equipped and comfortable.

Bathroom could do with an upgrade. Some staining on one of the sofas.

it was warm and cosy and so near to the town centre.

nothing to dislike, shower room needs a bit of a refurb?

Lovely location lovely building.

Single beds could do with a mattress topper. Bathroom due a refit. Shower head rusty and cubicle stained and grubby. Shame as the bathroom let's this lovely property down. We were asked to put rubbish out but couldn't locate the bin, house next door couldn't either!
