Tenses

Rewrite using show not tell.

The old house had been empty for years.

The cottage sat at the end of a long winding drive way all lonely nothing surronding it.The stench made me gag immediatley,the curtains were covered in mould,the floor boards creaked with every step and the doors were falling down.I could hear rats playing in the walls it was as if it had been abandoned.
