The Cray Pot - Centre of it all♡

Great coastal vibe and unbeatable location

8.0

We loved our April stay at The Cray Pot. It's a charming, rustic spot that perfectly captures the Lancelin vibe. Even with the cooler April weather, the house was very comfortable, warm during the day and nice and cool at night. The location was excellent. We barely touched the car, walking to the cafe, skatepark, and playground every day. Great communication from the property management!

− As many have noted, the accommodation is definitely "rustic," and having the only bathroom downstairs is a bit of a friction point-but we knew that going in, so it didn't dampen our stay.

We didnt stay, left the day we arrived.

1.0

− Premises were not cleaned after previous occupation, such as all surfaces and benchtops. The house is marketed for 8 guests, the cutlery and glasses provided were not enough for us five guests (no knifes at all) The fridge and freezer were unhygienic and unusable. The bins were not emptied and were placed so close to the premises that the smell entered the house. Left over food in outside fire pit potentially attracts pests such as rats. Provided fan not operational in living area upstairs. Upstairs TV not usable, no remote. All blinds in all rooms broken or partly missing. Windows and carpets not cleaned not vacuumed and floors not mopped and sticky. Furniture very worn. Beds not made and sheets not removed from previous occupants. Pieces of rubbish left outside and outside furniture not cleaned. Booking services not customer friendly, delayed and misleading. Downstairs fridge switched on not cooling. Online description unclear and misleading, e.g.upstairs bedrooms not accessible from inside ground floor.

House from hell, beware.

Nothing

− This was the worst accomodation and completely ruined our holiday. The house smelt all of the drains were clogged so the shower overflowed so we were standing in a puddle of water while out of the shower and it flowed out to the carpet. We were able to fill the kitchen sink with water without even using a plug that’s how bad it was. The kitchen has NOTHING, no plates, no cutlery, nothing to clean with. You can access the bathroom without going outside and downstairs (which at night is dangerous because the stairs are not safe). The were crumbs all over floor, the couch is 100years old and stained. The blinds are broken and there is no washing machine. Awful!!!!

Good location, tree swing for the kids

− When we got there there was dead cockroaches all over the place, The blinds in the bedroom didn’t fit the entire window and one room only had sheers made it very hard to sleep. The toasters didn’t work, both of them and one flicked the RCD on the power board. The cupboard door was broken in the kitchen and the fly screen screws fell out we had to fix it. All in all I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone or come back. Simply because it was inconvenient House needs some love.

Location was great, big garden for dog

− Majority of it! run down place, looks nothing like the pictures most of them are for upstairs we were only given downstairs It's obviously a place where the owners dump all their mismatched furniture and has no love into it or personal touches No air conditioning so gets very hot and the tap sounds like a truck engine starting It's very overpriced for what you get and what's not in notes is $250 pet bond which is ironic as nothing in the property is worth $250 a and you have to bring your own sheets or towels Needs a price reduction or a refurb
