Quirky house near Longleat & town centre
Quirky house with small but pretty garden, though rather overgrown. Open plan layout worked well for us (4 adults & 2 small children). Odd assortment of crockery, cutlery and glasses in the kitchen!
Great accommodation - 3 good size doubles & 2 small beds for children, which worked well for us. Great to have 2 bathrooms but hot water not consistently available in showers.
Overall the house was a little tired and not squeaky clean but that didn’t spoil our experience and added in part to the slightly quirky appeal.
Only 10-12 minutes to Longleat and 5 minutes from town centre, so very good location.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Cleanliness
My main complaint was the cleanliness of the property. Upstairs was OK apart from some stains on some bedding, But the carpet in the lounge and stairs had not been hoovered. The oven in the kitchen was very grubby and has not been cleaned for a while. The property felt rather neglected and although there was a lot of personal stuff there it seemed the owners did no longer live there.
The management company Roost refunded the £100 cleaning charge. The furnishings need in my view a thorough upgrade.
