Landlord review for Bob Lancaster, Brockley
Landlord rating: 2
The landlord was pleasant enough as we saw him most days being as we were sharing grounds. However, any time an issue was raised we were made to feel like it wasn't important. For example, we told the landlord we could hear a lot of activity coming from the loft area and he told us to put rat poison up there, at cost to us. We reported this issue several times after confirming it definitely was rats but the landlord didn't feel it was his responsibility to sort out at all, even after we put rat poison up there as instructed. Same with the damp problem - we were told to buy a dehumifidifier. The real issue came when the landlord used his key to enter our property without our knowledge or permission when we were on holiday and had the audacity to leave a note in our living room, criticising us for leaving hamster food out as it "was probably encouraging the rats". That was when we knew we had to move out.

Property review for Garden Cottage Brockley, Wrington, Bristol
Property rating: 2
The property was a single storey old barn conversion set in shared grounds with the landlord, who was occupying a grand manor house. Despite his excessive displays of wealth, the landlord had made no attempts to update the very old building - there was single glazing throughout, a damp problem that resulted in having to throw away most of my clothes that had been stored in a built-in waredrobe and the ceiling leaked several times, having been insufficiently patched up with cellotape. The landlord seemed absolutely determined not to have to spend any money on the property, although he was very happy to take £800 a month from us for a 2 bedroom single storey, freezing cold, damp property.

Area review for Wrington, Bristol
Area rating: 6
The house was set on a beautiful lane called Chelvey Batch. There was miles and miles of gorgeous woodland right outside our property. There was only a farm shop within walking distance so amenities weren't great but the beauty of the area made up for this.
