Crown Cottage, Orford - Prime Orford Location

We love Orford and this is the third house we have stayed in; probably the best in terms of space, but not great in terms of general maintenance.

While the location and aesthetic design of the interior of crown cottage were very good, we felt that the property suffered from superficial cleaning and poor maintenance. The bathroom was not clean, dishwasher was filthy and the tumble dryer full of fluff. The bathroom is very damp and the floor tiles are coming loose, the drinks fridge doesn’t work, no salt or rinse aid in the dishwasher for sometime and crockery and cutlery consequently ruined. The kitchen bin felt ‘grubby’. The bathroom windows especially were very dirty. We were surprised there was no welcome pack of tea, coffee and milk as the blurb made reference to one plus there is no room to store food during the stay. There is obviously an issue with smells in the cottage given the extensive number of diffusers. Overall the property was not cleaned or maintained to the standard we expect (or implied in the blurb)

House was lovely suited the 4 of us and our dog. Near all amenities. Great for touring round or just relaxing in Orford.
