The home was warm and comfortable. The outdoors indoors feel. Well presented home
We thoroughly enjoyed our comfortable stay at this beautiful home. Ofc the pool was our first attraction, but for the kids we had with us there was lots of room to run around and animals to look at. Our stay was too short too be honest but we felt very much welcomed by our house manager who was great at communication.

Very pleasant
Great spacious accommodation for large groups or families, but beware you pay per person although advertised as ‘sleeps 10’ . Rather dated and only accommodation I have been to that doesn’t supply towels ! These cost extra . Excellent communication from owner Jane .

Amazing location and property for a reasonable price!
My family and I were very impressed with the property and the communication skills of the property owner. We knew exactly the process of check-in and check out and any other items that would maximise the enjoyment of the stay! This is definitely a shortlist on our accommodations for our next family trip/vacation!

Good place, very large, quiet.
Had a great break away with friends. After paying, there were conditions to agree to before we could get the key. We didn’t like this, it was too late to cancel. But the conditions were fair, just prefer to know the conditions in advance so we can decide if the place is right. There was a bbq, but it wasn’t good. Too much rust on the grills. We didn’t use it. The fireplace was AMAZING. We bought a box of wood and a box of kindling for about $28. It kept us warm for 2 days with some leftovers. Gas cookers are GREAT! And those steel benches were so nice, easy to clean.

Great space and location. Having the pool was good. A few minor issues (lack of tin opener/ plug/ oven dishes/ TV reception) considering the price.

Nice big house. Could do with a bit more homely feel to it. The only slight issue was that you cannot jump into the pool to avoid water level dropping and filter being damaged. Other than that, the pool was lovely on a hot summer day and the overall stay was good.

Enjoyable but unfortunate end
We enjoyed the size, location and views the property had. Well laid out and clean. Unfortunately we were not assisted with getting in slightly earlier 30 mins or so even though we explained we had a baby in our group. The grass had not been cut for a while so was quite long. The pool is over salted but clean. House inside was very clean though. Curtains need a little detailing as some hooks were hanging off. Our check out time was 11am and the owners arrived at 11.10 am and became quite offensive that we were still there, just clearing the bins and last few bag from the kitchen. The male owner became quite agitated and bumped our 5 year old grandson right off his feet in the doorway from the entrance hall to the 1st bedroom. We had used the bbq, which had not been cleaned from the previous visitors, but dutifully cleaned it and returned it to the back. It’s a pity that a lovely stay was marred by a thoughtless owner. At the lunch later many of the guests that had stayed at other venues had been made welcome and accommodated to stay on later without being pushed out on the precise minute. Maybe just a couple of thoughts for the owners.

Highly Recommend
Jane is such a host, and the prompt response from her is just amazing. The property is beyond explanation. My family enjoyed our 2020 Christmas. Lovely views from all parts of the house, to top it all off, salt water swimming pool. Brought the ocean to to us instead of driving all the way to the beach and back. My family really love this Bach and wish to return. Thank you Jane.
