OUR NEW CLEANING PROCEDURES FOR COVID-19

Our cleaning staff are the first people to access the property after a guest has stayed, so we first need to make sure that they are safe from infection.

We keep up to date with information by recognised health organisations The World Health Organisation and the NHS so we can keep ourselves updated with how the disease is spread and effectively protect our cleaners and our guests at all times.

Our cleaning staff wear disposable gloves throughout a whole property clean as well as taking all the steps below to help slow down and prevent the spread of COVID-19 within our properties.

1. Our priority is safety, not efficiency.

2. Using disinfectant, our cleaners wipe down high touch points such as light switches, lamps, cupboard handles, door handles, window latches, banisters, remote controls, and thermostats as it is extremely likely that a previous guest touched these points during their stay.

3. We put all cutlery, crockery and cooking implements through the dishwasher again whether it has been used or not. This limits cross infection from touching items even if they weren’t used.

4. We continue to disinfect high-contamination sites such as the toilet, basin, shower and bath, and rubbish bin and any toilet brushes.

5. We make sure all cleaning staff wipe down all appliances, electronics, and amenities that are provided such as the kettle, iron, vacuum cleaner, hairdryer etc. as it is possible the previous guest has touched these.

6. All soap dispensers, bathroom toiletries, cleaning products and equipment or other items that are for guest use are wiped down and disinfected or replaced with new.

7. Between each guest we launder all guest linens and towels whether they were used or not as again this minimises the risk of cross infection.

8. Just before our cleaner leaves the property they re disinfect the door handles and all entry methods (lock box keypad, sets of keys etc.)

9. During these exceptional times our cleaners are expected to take extra time to clean each property and disinfect thoroughly between guests.

10. Our cleaners are thoughtful about what might need to be disinfected and cleaned at the property as they are aware our guests are counting on them to prevent infection – and that their work is of a high value, especially in these times.

Guests can access the entire house and gardens.

The house is fully serviced and will be cleaned weekly, with a change of linen and towels included.

Bin day is every Thursday with alternate recycling and grey bins. Composting waste collection on the same day as the grey household waste bin. All bins are stored in the front garden.

We are available to help via phone calls, text, messages and emails.

A lovely place to stay in great location
We had a lovely stay in this very well equipped, and well located property. The hosts had thought of everything that may be needed and there was excellent communication in the run up to and during the stay. The house was in a lovely location, close to a pretty park and walkable distance to the centre on a really pretty and quiet street.

Well appointed comfortable house near Winchester centre.
A lovely 3 night stay in a well set up house with three bedrooms with three bathrooms, with three good friends. We spent our days enjoying the interests of Winchester, the Cathedral, the Great Hall, the Water Meadows, the old streets, and the shops. Plenty of exercise walking up and down through the park from the house to the centre of the City, and good meals out.

Spacious and very well equipped
Lots of room and masses of equipment. Very comfortable. Cool in an extremely hot week. Arrangements were very well managed and communicated by the hosts. We were so pleased, after our booking had to be cancelled last year due to Covid, to be able to stay this year. The outdoor space is attractive and well planned with plenty of room for outdoor eating. Parking for 2 cars/ road access is fine but quite tight.
