Whilst the property was in a great location sadly the interior was a bit tired in places On entering we were shockedby the terrible condition of all the couches most off putting this would of benifited from new couches or even throws to hide there appearance Some areas of decor were tired and the beautiful window at thetopof the stairs would benefit from a new covering The back yard is lovelyand sunny but could also benefit from some tidying and decor The bedrooms were comfy and bedding was spotless Its been a tough few years with covid so maybe investment is tough presently The kitchen was large clean and well equipped We however never used the large dining room

the listing isnât accurate as it states off road parking which there is not. there is on road parking within about 200m if you can get in (first come first served). also the sofa needs throws or something to stop the leatherette peeling off when you sit on it; i assume it is dogs that have worn it badly over time. house was warm and beds really comfortable. we had a couple of small issues when there but the owner was very responsive and helpful. one point for improvement. there is no guide at the property on how to use the tvs, where to leave the key and rubbish etc when leaving. renters should be aware the back yard does not have a gate.

Park House was in a convenient location, with easy access to the park opposite, well stocked Co-op, lovely independent shops on the main Street and the Bronte Heritage. The lack of pavement and busy road meant care had to be taken leaving and returning to the property. The house was warm and comfortable, particularly the bedrooms and kitchen. The traditional Dining room is somewhat austere and seating upholstery in the Living room extremely worn and somewhat uninviting. The accommodation was well suited to our party of human and canine friends.
