Disappointing
We booked for a week in July to celebrate our wedding anniversary and based on the listing for this house, we were really looking forward to it. However once we arrived we were very underwhelmed and disappointed.
Firstly I’ll list the positives. The location and walking distance to the beach and Abersoch are excellent. The beds even though smaller than advertised were comfortable. Oyster holiday cottages were prompt to reply to our problems and tried to help as best they could.
Now to explain the disappointment. When we booked, the main bedroom was listed as having a king size bed, this was not the case when we arrived, my partner is very tall and doesn’t fit in a double bed. At some point it must have had a king size bed as the fitted sheets were all too big for the bed. The en-suite bathroom has no towel ring or toilet roll holder. The wardrobe in the main bedroom is really a storage cupboard with a rail so high even my partner struggled to reach it.
The WiFi was incredibly slow at 1.5 Mbps, (my mobile data was 50 times faster), this is probably due to the Sky router being from 2011 and never being upgraded.
Although the lounge area has been updated the kitchen-diner is very shabby. Next to the dining table there is wallpaper hanging off the wall and two of the aging floor tiles are badly cracked and pieces missing, these have very sharp edges and are dangerous.
The lounge hadn’t been cleaned properly when we arrived, and there was long dog hair on the sofas, and under them was hair and dust, the same in the single bedroom.
The jacuzzi was not very clean and had sand in the bottom and churned up scum when we used it. It also smelled of mildew when we took the lid off so we were reluctant to use it.
The TV is limited to on-demand apps only, so you can’t just watch normal TV and flick between channels, you have to go into iPlayer and ITVX etc to watch live TV which is very frustrating.
The hedges in the back garden aren’t totally secure as our little dog managed to get into next doors garden briefly.
There were 34 wine glasses in the kitchen but not one glass bigger than 125mls to drink a beer or water out of. OHC did provide us with some when we asked. The garage at the back of the house is available to store beach equipment but was mainly full of more wine glasses on the floor.
I wish the owner could live there for a week and see how fabulous it could be with a little more care and attention.
