Brilliant family holiday!
This house is fully equipped to comfortably accommodate a large group of adults, children and a baby - we all loved our week here, so conveniently located to walk to the beach or main street. The pool is superb, we swum nearly every day even when the weather was cooler. A great property!

Love this place
Such a great house. Perfect location. Close to beach and shops. Great bedroom layout. We enjoy staying here very much. Would make it even better though if they considered allowing pets so we didn't have to leave our furry family behind.

Beautiful property. So large and clean, great pool and outdoor area.
Loved staying at this property. Great set out for two families, with two main bedrooms including ensuites. Easily fit 4 adults and 5 kids of different ages. Loved the pool and the outdoor area, although a little small to seat all of us it had a great grassed area, large enough for badmitton and vollyball. The beds were so comfy and everything seemed very new. Extremely well cleaned and had everything we needed for a very relaxing and comfortable stay. Thanks so much for having us.

Family long weekend
We had three families stay for the long weekend. The property was fantastic for us with plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas. We could all eat together on the massive table and the outdoor area was perfect. Would highly recommend for any large group or family

Great spacious house but lacking some basic supplies
We had a great weekend stay with friends. The house is large with a fabulous outdoor area. It's pretty much as described. Was missing a lot of the basics we have come to expect from Stayz houses, namely toilet paper... With 4 toilets there was literally no paper! No hand towels or bath mats or tea towels either. No other personal touches but was a comfortable large house to enjoy time with friends. Just byo literally everything!

Awesome house, super clean and spacious
We had an excellent stay, the pool is amazing! Only things that let it down was no Wifi. I didnt even check to see as I assumed all holiday homes offered Wifi. Its a necessity in this day and age. Also no instructions for heating system (or if there were we couldnt find them!). Lastly, it would be great if linen was included, just for the sake of convenience (esp when travelling with young children). But other than that, this house is absolutely gold star standard!

beautiful house but obviously wasn't checked for cleanliness or details before we went in
beautiful house but had ants around patio, no details there was an alarm or how to use it, the outside bin hadn't been emptied, the fridge was leaking water so the floor had to mopped, paint coming off furniture which was on the floor, a bed had a chap stick left in it & a drawer had dried food in it. There were fleas in the pillow outside. Needs a really good clean. I paid a rather expensive rate for a nice house that I expected to be much cleaner.
