Scam
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Beware, this property is a scam. We messaged numerous times and called but no answer. Arrived at the property at check in but it was all shut up and no answer. Waited and waited but ended up having to book alternative accommodation. Booking.com are investigating the property.

Cons:

Booked this accommodation for 2 nights, got to the location at the time given to them as requested.
Nobody met me at the property to let me in, phone was switched off and was unable to get into property. Absolute disgrace.

Cons:

There is an ongoing investigation by booking.com as the host did not appear leaving my wife and I frantically looking to book somewhere else on the Easter weekend difficult would be an understatement as the choice was minimal, we are awaiting the outcome of the investigation so we can get a refund

Sad for this review
Pros:

I have stayed here before and this property is lovely! And I have always had an amazing stay. However I booked this property the other day and the lady wasn’t in I sat outside for two hours I tried to email and text. I rang booking.com but no one got in contact with me to the following day. I had to find alternative accommodation. I hope everything is okay, but I have had no communication since.

Cons:

I couldn’t stay due to property not being open

Good and comfortable ‘bedroom only’ provision
Pros:

Comfortable and clean bedroom, with en suite.
Location was quiet, and I was the only guest that night so it was extra quiet, ensuring good sleep.
Free WiFi worked fine, TV similarly.

Cons:

I would have appreciated a glass and some water (I had to buy a bottle of water from the corner shop).
Property felt too hot (almost like a sauna), I turned my room temperature down from 4 to 1
