Hi John. I am sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay with us. When talking to you both days I thought that you and your mother had enjoyed your stay even though I did put you in a studio rather than a twin studio, which I did apologise for the error which was all mine, but I did put another bed in for you and you seemed quite happy with this. I do hope that you come and stay again and have a better experience.

I had my pet dog with me so was put in a smokers room, even though the smokers smoke outside the room still smelt of stale cigarette smoke even after spraying with perfume. The ashtray on the table is directly outside the window which was open and the ashtray had several fresh butts in it. The unit next door's ashtray was right at the door to my unit and was full of cigar butts. I understand they have separate rooms for pet friendly use but to bung us in smokers rooms is a bit off, my dog smells much nicer. The room itself was lovely, clean, well laid out and everything necessary provided and the owner a lovely lady.

Firstly, I have just arrived back from a few days away to see your review, hence the delay in my reply. Thank you for letting me know that you found the unit to be clean and well equipped. I am concerned that you thought that you were in a smoking room as I can assure you that all our units are non-smoking inside, but to cater for everyone (like having some dog friendly units) we do allow smoking outside the units with an ashtray on the table. This should have been emptied and cleaned during our cleaning process, but was missed, and I apologise for that. I wish you had felt comfortable enough to talk to me about your concerns when we spoke as you were taking your dog for a walk after you had checked into your unit. If I was aware, I could have offered you another dog friendly unit, as I checked, and we did still have one available for that night. I hope you had a safe trip home.

Room was clean and well set out. A point for the owners. I thought your wording of two parts of your information booklet was a bit severe. 1..You must be out by 10.00am. If not we will go ahead anyway. 2...You should not leave the room unreasonably untidy ( what does this mean and who determines it?), and it should be as tidy as when you arrived??!! Other parts very helpful.....I guess you may have had some guests who have "pushed it" in the past.
