There was no welcome/info folder, property owner advised that it was being updated however having read a review from last month there wasnât one then either. We holiday twice a year in the UK and have done for 5+ years and never not had a folder with useful property and local information. There is no normal TV, all done through catch up apps - again if there was a welcome/info pack we would have found this out sooner and not had to contact the property owner. Also, if people staying here do not have catch up accounts, you cannot watch anything. Many lights missing bulbs or just not working, the one in the porch by the front door meaning when you arrive back in the dark you cannot see well at all. Also, bedside lamps would be great! Only 2 bulbs out of the 5 in the living room light were working. Had to hunt for crockery as there was non in the cupboard, then found it all set up in the conservatory, which is a lovely touch but maybe get more so people do not have to ferry the plates etc to the kitchen. Having cameras set up in the garden was a little off putting, granted they may not be in use when the property is occupied but it made us feel a little uncomfortable. Unable to turn some of the radiators off and unable to locate a thermostat. Also, not the greatest welcome when both dustbins overflowing with rubbish out the front and bags of rubbish left next to the bins.

1) Although the back garden was enclosed by fencing the back gate was broken off allowing access of any dogs to the road. We had to make a temporary fix by propping the gate up with wheely bins to keep our dog safe. 2) Boiler was not providing hot water until following remote guidance from property manager we re pressurised the boiler. 3) TV does not do main channels such as BBc ITV etc. 4) No normal wine glasses we went French and used tumblers. 5) No local information at all in the home 6) I booked the property through VRBO, I sent a couple of queries through the VRBO site before we arrived, they have never been responded to. On the whole we did like the house
