We found it necessary to get the floor duster and vacuum cleaner out. Headboards, Tv and bedroom furniture were particularly bad. Such a shame as the house had stunning views and excellent facilities.

A lovely modern house and in a quiet area which suited us. It was such a shame it had not been cleaned it was as though the beds had been changed and nothing else done. The toilet upstairs had skids and wee stains left in and tissue left in the downstairs one. The kitchen was also left dirty we had to clean before it was used. The floors had bits on in every room. You could write your name in the dust in the downstairs bedroom. Please, please, change your cleaning company itâs a shame to spoil your lovely home.
