The Annex Ferndown

The main door is awkward. The joining instructions said the indoor handle might break if the door is opened too wide without care. The handle was broken before we arrived, but still operated. The beds are very low, and could be awkward for anyone with a disability. Similarly, the main door, although perfectly wide for a wheelchair doesn't have a ramp, so there is a step, perhaps a surprise for a ground floor property. The bedrooms could do with chairs. The property details folder was on the lower shelf of the coffee table, perhaps it should be more prominent? Reference to keys in the folder is not correct as entry is by a numeric barrel lock. Provision of toiletries would be a nice touch, as would a kitchen roll.

I plan to stay here again the next time I come to Ferndown. Great location, small but perfectly designed space, very comfortable and well equipped. Comfortable beds.

We had a lovely weekend and overall found the apartment to be clean, comfortable and well located. A couple of suggestions would be to take a look at the boiler as there were issues with the hot water running out and the day of the wedding we were attending, I had to have a cold shower which was frustrating. It would also be very useful to have somewhere to hang clothes - we tried to use the coat rack for this but it collapsed as the top part is loose and wobbly. Lastly, the ironing board needs replacing as the legs are broken so the board is wonky, and i would highly recommend a full size ironing board - small table top ironing boards aren't useful for much. Other than those niggles, we really enjoyed our stay!
