Poor Location
I hesitate to write negative reviews, but need to make sure the next renters understand the house properly. The House is literally attached to, and behind, the Mermaid Takeaway on Green End Road. Looking at google maps, a new unit has been built to replace the small storage shed shown, and the green space in front of the house is now the back patio of that unit (not your unit). You are close to the street, have no privacy, and the downstairs bathroom smells like fish and chips. With it being the summer, we needed the windows open, which was less than ideal based on the location.
The property description said it includes off street parking. In the initial contact, we were told to park on the left side of the parking area. Just before we arrived, we were told "a part of the driveway at the front of the house is being resurfaced to allow for east car parking" and that we need to park several minutes away on the street. First of all, there was no resurfacing being done. Both parking spaces were available for use. There was a car parked in the left spot, but was told that was a neighbors car.
It was hot during our visit, and they only had fans for 2 of the 4 bedrooms. They did order 2 more fans and had them delivered to the house (they arrived on our final night).
The floors in the house had not been properly cleaned. We gave our 3 year old a bath, and her feet were filthy after walking around for 15 minutes.
Finally, the description says "washer/dryer" but there is no dryer
