My stay at Charley’s House

We enjoyed our stay ,the property was well equipped The only thing missing was the dining table and chairs which were in the photos. A hand towel would be a good addition in the bathroom . But overall we enjoyed our stay and would book again

Not as described. *Avoid*

Property pictures were completely inaccurate. Arrived at property to find the garden a mess and overgrown. Inside house there was holes in walls, filthy paintwork, loose wiring on lights, the fridge and freezer was filthy. Didn't even stay in the property. Property host has claimed that he was unaware of the issues and stated that a full refund would be given, however only a partial refund has so far been issued. Currently going between vrbo helpline and host to resolve this. Never again.
