This is a difficult review to write. The main issues were cleanliness, wiring issues and a pool we were not comfortable using. We arrived after an 8 hour drive to major issues with cleanliness. None of the bathrooms/toilets appeared to have been cleaned… faeces and urine splattered in all three toilet bowls, toothpaste sprayed all over the mirrors, sticky floors…this was just not acceptable, especially in times of Covid. The kitchen left a lot to be desired too, with a stained tablecloth, dirty sink, greasy utensils etc. We then turned on the garden lights so we could spend our first night sitting out but, when we turned them on, it blew all the house lights! Unfortunately the next day, now in daylight, we were horrified to see the pool had slimy green algae around all edges and very murky water…difficult to even see to the bottom where there were also areas of dirt. Some of the concrete tiling was also loose around the pool which we felt was dangerous. We were told by the owner it was safe but we had read that cloudy pools could potentially be full of bacteria that could cause infections, stomach problems, eye irritation etc. Couldn’t risk our health. On top of all that, the bbq was very rusty, dirty and again unusable, there were smashed terracotta pots in a walkway from the house to the garden, broken garden tiles attempting to be covered up with furniture and the separate pool house that had been described as ‘romantic’ was just unpleasant. Stained mattress, dirty walls, and had all the garden stuff thrown in there. Very disappointing as we had wanted one couple in our party to have stayed in there, but that was not to be. After everything, especially with a pool that we just didn’t feel safe to swim in, we felt we had to leave the property. We were very upset and disappointed, as we had been looking forward to our week in France for such a long time.
