Mariner House

The location was great for our needs as we had an event at Millenium Point which meant we only had a 10 minute drive to the event each day. The house is on a quiet street with a drive big enough for 2 cars. The house was comfortable and clean, could do with some touch-ups here and there but didn't affect the comfort. The kitchen has an air-fryer!! Big positive from me for that. The beds were comfy, plenty of hanging space and drawers. The garden has some seating to enjoy the warm evenings, the washer and dryer are located in the garage off the garden. It is worth noting that the hosts do request that shoes are not to be worn in the house, an area just inside the front door is set up for shoes to left there. This didn't bother us at all but it is worth knowing beforehand. The host always answered any queries quickly. The location is great if you want to be able to get into the city centre quickly and easily but not stay in the hubbub.

The information book needs to be updated to tell you where to locate the washer and dryer, I found it by searching myself. Information about the rubbish and recycling requirements for the area also needs to be added.

Great property, immaculately clean and would recommend

This house felt like home straight away. It's lovely and warm and the heating is easy to work. The kitchen has everything you need and the washing machine is useful. I used the little desk to work at and it worked fine. The sofa is large and comfy and the TV has loads of channels. The reservoir is a short walk away which has been great. The absolute best bit is the bed in the main bedroom. It is so so comfortable and the duvet and pillows are amazing. I miss it already...

Could have used some washing up liquid and a clean tea towel, but I used the dishwasher. Be aware if you still have decent hearing and for younger guests, one of the neighbours has a high pitched cat scarer in the garden which goes off a lot. Not much the owner can do, but just to note if your hearing is sensitive or your little ones don't like high pitched noises.

Property was clean, fit for purpose for my family of 5. Access to city and University was perfect for us. I liked the fact it was detached with parking.

The property its self is dated. Carpet’s would be best with some underlay and uneven floor boards in places. Floor boards give off loud footsteps. The bathroom needs to be looked at and consider a shower curtain instead. Dated front and back wooden doors changed to PVC for a more secure feel as they show signs of rotting in places. Shame we were unable to use the back garden because it was overgrown.
