Anniversary stay

Anniversary stay

We booked this venue after calling several hotels and B&B's that were available but the host seemed friendly on the phone so we went ahead after she said the private annex was lovely and sent pictures also after booking!
We arrived and the host was not at the venue but her partner (Male host was) he showed us the annex it was very small and the room had a strange smell, (host made a lovely cuppa but cakes were dry not moist but nice thought!) The smell so strong(not sure if doggie or cats pets smell) they just purchase a new bed he said and it may be that? ) we just had to ask for another room even though we knew it was to share a bathroom, shame as anniversay. No shower and bath too 20mins to fill as tsp so slow!
We had eated on route so the manor so decided to stay in and watch a romantic movie as cold and windy outsidebut the TV in all rooms was so tiny and so far from the bed in the annex you could not see it. The room upstairs was strange in that the TV all be it so tiny it was nearer bed but hubby could not fix as not working, so we popped in our Amazon stick hubby had brought with us which worked ok until half way through it stopped as no signal. We text host but no help at all ! Just use same password and try best signal but we said we had,so that was that.
The kettle stand fell off when you picked up kettle, all was in windows ledge and not much room at all and lead to short. All cable to short for TV and kettle. No place to hang any cloths, it was dusty everywhere and furniture far too big for the room.
Bathroom full of dust on curtain and all sides and plants (all fake plants in both bathroom and out bedroom plus on toilet cistern dusty, I had a bath and then cleaned the bathroom. Washed fake plants and sides and window ledge so dusty! why?
Second bathroom mirror light not working and main light so dark you could not see ANYTHING.
5 stars No its is NOT!!
Breakfast is extra for cooked. Jam jars all on table yuck and all but empty, full of pastries and carbs but hubby said most were dry! Hard to swallow, must be a few days old.
They made me porridge, as gluten free, it was made for me which was nice.
Nice and friendly male host but would not stay again and need to buy fresh carbs and clean and sort rooms! After all they are saying 5 stars???? If only managers/owners could just spend one night in each room they would know what it's like, why don't they? A mattress is so needed!
Only my second ever review and last one was to say how wonderful the greyhound at Wilton was, this one not at all wonderful. Wished we'd stayed at home.
Both so upset with our choice and stay:0(
