    However, it was very dusty and in one ground floor bedroom damp. The shower is in my opinion dangerous as it suddenly shoots out very hot water without warning despite being on a low temperature which means you can’t trust it. I thought I was going to be burned when it happened to me. We had a good time despite this but my holiday was ruined when on the last day we stripped the beds as requested and I was revolted by what I saw. The bedding was stained and the pillows in the downstairs bedroom can only be described as disgusting. I felt guilty that I had invited my family for our special anniversary and they had had to sleep on that.
