Lovely Property, needs a refresh in some areas.
We enjoyed our stay in Falmouth and the house was in an ideal location.
Lots going on in this location and it can be a bit noisy in the evenings. If you want to be in the middle of town you have to expect some disturbance. The house faces a busy pub.
Without wanting to be to picky, the house is in need of a deep clean.
The housekeeper needs to up her gain as in certain areas it wasn’t great. We decided not to complain as we are not that type of guest but there is room for big improvement.
The owners also need to carry out some basic maintenance as there is a quite a few issues in the house.
I am not going to list all of these but the two that concerned us most was that all doors inside the house should be able to be shut closed especially in bathrooms and bedrooms for privacy. Furthermore removing thermostatic valves on radiators so that we were unable to turn them on or up is not great for your cold guests.We did experience cool wet weather in June and it would of been nice to tweak the heating a little as the house being an old building gets cold and we were unable to do so. I will mention that the gas fire in the lounge was wonderful and we used it on two evenings.
We did not raise any complaints with the owners or receive any communication from them. A courtesy call or text to ensure we were comfortable would of been appreciated during our stay.
With the issues we had we would not choose to stay at this particular property again, which is a great shame as we will be returning to the area in the autumn.
I am sure other guests will enjoy this property especially in the warm summer months.
