Holiday house was full of mould

Options
I want to know if there’s anything that can be done about the holiday house I recently stayed at that was literally painted of mould and dampness! Me and a friend was coughing our lungs up for the entire week I was in the house, I don’t suffer from asthma but my friend does! Pictures show are only a few pictures of the mould? Is there any benefits or somewhere to complain to. I’ve emailed the company I booked through but they said they can’t do anything. Thanks

    Did you not complain as soon as you saw the house?  If you only thought about complaining after you have spent a week there it weakens your complaint.
    It does look poor quality accommodation and I assume it had been not used for a period before you arrived.

    Of course the company it was advertised through can do something.  They can demand the owners sort the problems and, if they fail to do so, they can remove them from their books.  Unfortunately many companies are far more interested in the profit than the product.
