House in a beautiful setting with glorious view. The house was spotless. Host was considerate and responsive, helping sort out queries very efficiently. Close to an excellent bakery!
There were dead flies in every room
The heating was horrible the creepy vibe I got when I walked in the heat and light went on us and I have proof of this you can here everyone down stairs very well as if there in the same room and the stairs were so slippery and icy my mom even slipped on them

I'm sorry you had such a bad experience at our house, you never raised any of this with me when I asked you to contact me with any questions or concerns. I'm sorry if there was a storm while you were there but we can't help that the stairs became icy. You also left a full lobster in our microwave for days after leaving, and another claw in the oven. I'm sorry you didn't like the layout but the house has a loft upstairs only covering half of the main floor so you can easily hear what's going on downstairs, I can't control how the house was constructed, but the layout is obvious from the pictures. You should have contacted us with your issue and we would have been happy to refund some of your payment. Best of luck in the future.
