Host Teresa-Anne is available and a great asset to the property. The property is well located and it’s easy to use to walk to all Shakespeare’s locations.Property has 6 bedrooms with four double beds and 2 small single bed rooms. While the listing says there are fold out beds - they are barely 3 inch floppy foam constructs.The kitchen has a small oven, and the cooking utensils are in need of being updated. Fortunately it was winter and we could use the AGA - which is finicky, and cuts out if not treated just right (increase temp a half step ever half hour), and has no temperature gauge so makes for a guessing cook.The house cleaners seriously let the owners down. There were thick layers of dust and dirt in the drawers, on surfaces and on door frames. We spent the first two hours cleaning and purchased air filtration to mitigate the allergens.The furniture is old - in particular the couch in the kitchen and the bed mattresses need replacement. The bedding is paper thin, the pillows flat, towels threadbare and have holes, and the nothing matches.With a long overdue refresh of linens, towels, bedding, furniture; a proper deep clean, increasing the available cooking methods in the kitchen, and a replenishment of cooking utensils this property could shine.
