“This property has such great potential but sadly it suffers like a typical, poorly managed rental.”
Old, tired and dirty. The bathroom is filthy with mould (probably a health and safety issue), broken fixings, flaking paint and dirty grout. You can see where the owners have had painters in but the paint stops near the windows as whoever carried out tge work couldn't be bothered to paint up to the windows properly. Lots of flaking paint and rotten, bodged skirting boards throughout. Although the property once had an alarm, this was clearly very old and not working. The door locks and security were very, very poor. Any opportunist burglar would have no problem. The walls by the sliding doors showed signs of damp, flaking paint and looked awful. The electricity sockets used a 4 bank extension which looked overloaded. The windows had grime and cobwebs, a snail and dead insects all over them. The property suffered with lots of spiders. Finally, there wasn't even a clothes horse, I had to go and buy one. No I don't want my clothes outside on a line. The restaurant next door was closed and looked derelict, which brought the area down. Quite depressing to see, at the height of Summer. I write this critique, not to be negative but to highlight issues and observations, most of which could be easily addressed. This could be a fantastic holiday destination, it just needs the love and attention, rather than letting it go and relying on the location alone. Obviously the location is fantastic and with a refurb to address the decay within the property, this could be 5 stars.
