What a great location, close to the sea front, the pier and the Lanes. Kemptown itself is an interesting neighbourhood with a variety of shops nearby including Morrisons. The property was clean and the housekeeper very helpful with enquiries.
When we arrived on a late January afternoon, the house was absolutely icy cold. It took some time to get the radiators to work - I had to bleed several, but once going they were very hard to adjust. Other problems were a wobbly stair bannister and a large sash window in the kitchen with no means of securing - both dangerous for children. One leg of the large dining room table fell off when we tried to move it.
The kitchen was pretty well equipped - plenty of crockery and glasses, but why only 11 forks for 20 people, and just 2 tea towels for a 3 day stay?
There were just 2 sofas in the sitting room - again hardly adequate for 20 people. Why not some cushions or beanbags if no more furniture was possible?
The windows were very grimy and the TV remote battery was dead, but the ultimate insult was the condom hanging from the smoke detector - not really very funny.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but it could have been so much better with a few improvements. For the money we paid, it does not represent value.
