Hot water, beds and living room.

Radiators only lukewarm, washbasin taps very tight and dripping in shower room, bedrooms only three feet away from A595 main road, towel rail in bathroom hanging off wall, lack of items in kitchen, milk jug etc, barking dog in adjacent sheds, no apparent rubbish or recycling bins, had difficulty with switching landing light off, outside yard not really suitable for pets.

It was well-located and the house was generally well-equipped. The parking was secure and suitable to the property. We were easily able to keep warm and dry wet clothing; the supply of both a main bathroom and an en-suite was useful, especially with my children also staying. Having the house laid out upside-down is very sensible, affording good views across the surroundings and minimising potential road noise. (It matters little that the bedrooms are at road level, since the road has very little traffic by night.)

A main issue is the incorrect positioning of all of the taps, the right-hand tap being hot over all sinks and the bath. This is not how they should be installed, according to building regulations and could result in a guest being burned, if automatically expecting cold water when using what is most usually the leading hand. The only issue was that of an issue with internet and TV provision. Of course, on holiday, one can do without these, but in the case of 1 Park Nook Close, there is a further consequence, since there is no TV aerial provided, so the absence of Internet provision disables TV reception. It also means that many programmes cannot be found when the internet is available, since reception is required for a TV guide to be available! It was also hard for me and the occupant of No. 2 to get this resolved and it was not rectified by the time we left (more than 20 hours after the fault occurred). Returning to bathroom issues, the miniature sink in the en-suite has a slope, so that soap etc. slip off it, onto the floor. All these issue really need to be resolved, as this would make this stay extremely good in a property that has very good potential. We couild also have done with a bath mat in the en-suite.

The house was in a beautiful location with scenic views, it was very clean and comfortable. The pub next door was extremely friendly and helpful with beautiful food.

Accommodation as described, ideally located, great views and wonderful surroundings. The house is clean and tidy, it has everything you need for a holiday. I can wholeheartedly recommend this place. I hope to go back there again. My whole family had the same feeling and everyone enjoyed their stay very much. My overall rating 5 out of 5. Thank you so much !!!

The location of the house was brilliant as we had been given a trip on the Ravenglass steam train for Christmas .... so easy to travel too Easy to obtain entry into the house, loved the upside down design of the house , comfy upstairs ,plenty of kitchen equipment ,nice views of the countryside

The mattress on the bed in the room with the en suite bathroom was awful ..... worse 2 nights sleep I've ever had ..... the shower was cramped,nowhere to put soap ,no shelf , the base of the shower was obviously broken it squelched under foot ,the door to the shower was broken ,the plastic shelves over the sink kept falling down ...... not a nice experience at all The bannister at the top of the stairs needs surveying it felt unsafe

quirky

on main road car noise at night

The property was warm and inviting. Off road PARKING. The pub next door was fab

Nothing

Lounge/diner nice with lovely views. Kitchen very well equipped. Food in the pub next door but one was good.

Property smelt damp downstairs, not helped by a wet mop being left in the middle room downstairs. En suite bedroom smelt damp and in need of airing and shower room was very dated. Windows inadequate, curtains didn't cut out any light or noise. No coat hangers on garment rail (no wardrobe). Shower screen coming away from wall in bathroom, lino not fitted properly, no shade on bathroom light!!. In need of general maintenance and a good spring clean to remove spider's webs, clean windows etc. Road noise horrendous.
