Inaccurately Described, Disappointing Experience
We have rented houses in North Berwick for over 30 years, and this is the first time we've been misled and disappointed. When we arrived the house had not been cleaned; it is in terrible condition - leaking drains, filthy carpets, totally rundown. During our stay both the oven and clothes washer broke. We paid a premium to rent a house that should never have been rented in its present state. I hope VRBO will take note and verify their listings' descriptions are accurate.

Great sized property and location - but a wee bit tired
Had a great weekend here, lots of positives about the property, the downsides were: 1. We had to re pressurise the central heating to get the boiler to work 2. The windows were filthy and you couldn't see through them to fully appreciate the views 3. The property is quite tired, especially the kitchen/diner and the downstairs lounge 4. The shower rooms/toilets are very basic and the shower in the first floor has 'stuff' growing around it! Other than the above, it's a great property, well located and fab size, the beds were comfortable and everything worked as it should.
