We recently had the misfortune to rent The White House with Studio through The Best of Suffolk. We were advised to check in later as a ‘deep clean’ was taking place due to Covid. The cottage was filthy. Cobwebs everywhere and everything was sticky. The bbq has not been cleaned, the garden was full of rotting apples attracting wasps, and my dog became extremely ill after eating one of many cigarette butts which were piled into an abandoned sink in the garden. The Aga whilst ‘quaint’ was extremely hazardous. Exposed boiling pipes caused second degree burns to one of our parties who was simply brushing past this on the way to sit down at the adjacent table. I slept in the studio in the garden with my husband and our bed literally moved across the floor each morning with the huge lorries powering past at the crack of dawn, not to mention the noise. Forget sleep! The stairs simply described as ‘steep’ should be part of the next Olympic Games. Large gaps in the hedge onto the extremely busy road running alongside meant dogs and children had to be watched every second of the ‘holiday’ when in the garden. This was certainly not a relaxing holiday more a test of endurance! If you have children please do not stay here....it is a serious accident waiting to happen!
