Charles Alexander Short Stay - Derbe House

Large upfront deposit late check in early check out dont like being filmed on ring door cam

Very well presented nicely furnished & comfortable

It’s a large property to have only 1 toilet especially with no sink .The bathroom was large enough to accommodate another toilet. The kitchen wasn’t very well equipped could have done with bowls to go in the microwave & a couple of baking trays. Managed ok for a short stay .

Lovely house with lots of space and facilities. Lovely garden and comfortable bedrooms. Location is just a stones throw from the beach and a 10min walk into central St Anne’s

Pros: Excellent situation, very clean and comfortable, super stylish, lovely conservatory looking out over a long garden.

Cons: There were many safety issues which had not been considered. The two flight stairs had a handrail on the first flight, but not the second. The balusters have been replaced with thick glass which should have a handrail on top. The "open" shower has a side screen with completely clear glass. My partially sighted son couldn't see it! The glass should have adhesive decals to make it more visible. The bathroom should have non slip flooring. My partner slipped and fell on his first day, injuring his back, and spent the rest of our week in bed because he couldn't sit or stand. The lovely kitchen has sliding doors leading into the conservatory. This is a great idea, but they are also clear and I walked into them twice thinking they were open! Again safety decals would be a good idea. The lounge is very dark, probably because of the tree outside close to the house. It also smelled strongly of stinky feet for the first few days in our week. I think this might be the UPVC sofa. The bathroom smelled of cigarettes! The drive is quite steep and a safety rail for getting up and down would be useful. The house has a lot of trendy ornaments, perhaps too many.
