The house was spotlessly clean and well equipped. Great location for exploring the local area. Easy parking on the main road outside.
We were only given 2 normal towels for the 4 of us and when I requested more they didn’t bring any. We ended up having to buy some which was poor service.

Very clean, excellent decor and furnishings. Everything provided appliance wise. Nice home.
Duvet too small in front bedroom. Did not cover the bed even before anyone got in.. Very small hand basin in bathroom, ideal for washing hands but did not hold sufficient water for a face wash. Host and Stay did not provide any access information until chased up on 2 different occasions. Then, I received several emails duplicating my receipts. Would not use again.

Clean, spacious
I would be very reluctant to book accommodation with “Host & Stay” again, due to the fact that after pre-paying the accommodation for £350 (2 nights) they would not provide access details to the house until I paid another £250 as a deposit (this last item was not advertised clearly from the outset). I had to prompt them a number of times to initiate refund of the deposit which eventually was returned after a week.
They also insisted that we left the premises at 10am on an Easter Sunday morning, not time to have a nice breakfast with the family – had to leave in a rush. Check-out time should be 12 o’clock in my view.
When we arrived, the house had a smell of damp, although it was clean and tidy. The house was very cold the 1st night, bathroom was cold in the morning.
The whole experience felt that Host & Stay’s priority was the money, and they lacked attention to make the experience more welcoming.
