The house was in a perfect location for us as we were doing the Coronation Street Experience one day and visiting family in Chadderton and Marple on the other days. The owners had left milk, water and biscuits which were a nice touch and clear instructions on how everything worked.Having just come from a holiday home in the Lake District the difference were very clear. There wasn’t a full set of crockery only plastic dinner plates, the oven wasn’t clean and there was leftover food in the cupboard. Normally bedding in a holiday home is white and so are the towels, these were all multicoloured, the mattress cover when we stripped the bed to leave was dirty and the bed creaked and was uncomfortable. The floorboards by the radiator are soft, as if there is a leak. The lounge had a set of conservatory furniture in it with makeshift cushions which was not comfortable lounge furniture and the sofa cover did not fit and kept popping off. The garden was covered in weeds and moss balls and one set of the patio furniture was rusty.
