Spacious Town House with Swimming Pool
Summary:
A classic period town house with large living rooms and plenty of space to accommodate up to 6 people. Ideally located for a city break, a base from which to explore Devon and Cornwall, or even for commercial contractors in need of flexible working and living space. Private swimming pool and outdoor entertaining area which has plenty of dining space and sun-loungers. This home is modern, comfortable, and stylish.
The Space:
Our home comprises a large hallway, open plan lounge and dining room, well-equipped kitchen with island, 3 double bedrooms (one en-suite) and a communal bathroom. An additional single put-me-up bed is available - this can be made up in the double bedroom to create a shared bedrooms. Please let us know if you would like this available for your stay, but please note there is an additional laundry fee for using it.
Free on-road parking is available. Fresh linen and soft cotton towels are provided, along with ample clothes storage in each of the bedrooms. There are two small balconies from the lounge and dining room overlooking the swimming pool to the rear and the garden to the front. Please note the swimming pool is not heated but does enjoy a sunny aspect in the afternoons. You will have sole use of the swimming pool during your stay but please be aware that our home is located in a town and there are other buildings that look out over it. Pool towels are available for guest use. Free on street parking. No dogs.

Pool not safe for children
The house has been decorated to a very high standard, but the reason for my booking was the use of the pool. The property is sold as a pool holiday (rare in the UK), but the pool was not usable in a safe manner, with loose tiling and sharp edges. You advised me that there were 'a few loose tiles', but only after payment had been made. The tiling around the pool is a trip hazard in several places and the mosaic tiling in the pool itself clearly has not been maintained for years, with hundreds of them loose and large gaps in the lining, with plant life growing from the bottom of the pool. The pool steps are so deep that I had difficulty getting in and out, let alone a small child. If I had a family there I would not have allowed children into the pool at all and you gave no warning of this. I find it difficult to believe that this facility would have passed any required risk assessments or safety checks.
There was no net provided to scoop out the plants and wildlife that fell constantly into the pool. The garden was maintained to a bare minimum, with overhanging the walkways and barbecue.
There was no green bin in the garden. It was by the front gate, overflowing, with several black bags alongside, so it seemed to me that there had been no waste collection for some time.
No instructions how to find main TV channels, no Welcome Pack, only leftovers from previous guests. Finally, I wrote to the letting agent, Roost, about my concerns, and received no reply.
Disgraceful.
