Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Schönes Cottages in zentraler Lage
Schönes Cottages mit landestypischen Wohnbereich. Zentrale Lage zu Pubs und Supermarkt.. Das Cottage liegt auf der flachen Seite von Shaftesbury, sodass man den steilen Anstieg über den Gold Hill nicht machen muß.: Schöner Garten mit Webergrill

In Zentrumsnähe
Das Reihenhaus liegt zentral im schönen Städtchen Shaftesbury ,alle nötigen Geschäfte sind in gehweite erreichbar. Der Hausschlüssel musste von uns bei einem Schlüsseltresor im Städtchen geholt werden (nicht beim Haus selbst) und wir hatten keine Ansprechperson vor Ort. Die Bilder der Beschreibung stimmen mit dem Vorgefundenen nicht ganz überein und scheinen schon älter zu sein. Das Bild der angegebenen Terrasse ist nicht vom Haus ,sondern wurde in einem Restaurant im Städtchen aufgenommen ,was uns sehr befremdet hat, da wir uns darauf gefreut haben. Die angegebene Parkmöglichkeit für das Auto besteht nur für Sonntags und über Nacht bis 8 h morgens ,danach ist man dann ständig auf der Suche nach einem Parkplatz ,welcher bezahlt werden muss.
Das Haus ist originell eingerichtet , Sofas und Teppiche leider bereits ziemlich "schmuddelig" verfleckt .Die Sauberkeit ebenfalls etwas "schmuddelig".
Wäschetrockner nicht vorhanden, King Size Bett ein ganz normales 160 cm Bett, schlechte Federkernmatratzen (Federn gut spürbar ) ,Trampolin nicht vorhanden ,Garten schön angelegt aber auch ein Naturgarten braucht Pflege, der Plattenherd war ein Gasherd ,Badezimmer mit Regendusche und mehr als enger Dusche ( man kann sich knapp drehen) und sehr engem WC.
Im alten Gemäuer des Hauses lebten nachtaktive Tiere ,welche man gut hören konnte ,ebenfalls die angrenzenden Nachbarn.
Das Preis / Leistungsverhältnis ( Preis Hochsaison ) stimmt für uns nicht.
