FA Cup final - Sat 18th May
Posted: Fri May 17, 2019 11:39 am
I have a booking that was made many months ago for this week starting 18th May. Which, as it happens coincides with the FA Cup final at 5pm!!!!!!
Through the week I’ve had 4 phone calls, one from each guest asking if they can gain access to the cottage as early as 12 noon and as late as 1pm!!!???
Apparently it takes hours to carry a case in from the car and settle down before the football match starts!!!!
I'm assuming they want to watch the build up to the match too. They haven't said as much.
I've told them that i have no problem with the principle that they may be allowed access if the cottage is ready on the day. I've explained that it depends on how clean we find the place at 10am when the current guests leave etc etc. They are not interested.
Will it be ready for 12 / 1pm or not?
At the mo I’m inclined to not allow them in early even if it is ready.
What would you do? One more stern phone call from them and i may consider telling them what to do....
