lovely little house,,,but

we love this little house but it is starting to get run down, we have been staying here for quiet a few years now, sad to see it like this. the person/persons who are the cleaner are definitely not doing there job, do not clean under beds, lounges etc & it needs a little bit of attention, re# screens on windows ripped or not on at all, doors do not close over properly, mat in lounge room needs to be replaced, washing machine was filthy & dose not wash properly the house was cleaner when we left than what it was when we arrived

Handy location

We stayed there several years ago and again recently. Handy location though the beds are old and uncompfortable. Who ever is cleaning the place isn't doing a very good job. Could do with some furniture updating.
