Great family home with terrific view

We loved our stay. Very easy set up and good amenities. Bathrooms are so new and well appointed. Could do with better instructions for the tv and games for the wi downstairs. Linen is also a bit mismatched as some bedrooms had Donna’s and some had blankets but heaters available if cold. Would stay again!!

Lovely beach holiday

Great property! Ample bedrooms, two living spaces, two bathrooms and enough room on the property for three cars and a 5m boat. Easily accommodated two families. Also fully fenced to keep the dogs contained and safe. Had all the essentials to get the holiday off to a great start. Beautiful view of the tree line from the top deck. Property owner was also a pleasure to deal with and willing to help out in any way possible. Very prompt in responding to messages. Would highly recommend a stay and would not hesitate to return myself.

Beautiful view from the deck

All three families had a great time. Plenty of space downstairs for our teenagers to get away and do their thing, while we enjoyed the views and fresh air on the deck.

Rip off

Cheaper to stay in a hotel or resort. The house has had some renovations but the kitchen, laundry and BBQ were not inviting to use at all. Dirty floors, windows and outdoor area had cob webs everywhere. Beds are extremely uncomfortable and most furniture needs to be updated. Bins were almost full and there wasn’t room for much more. Bathrooms are new and renovated and the most positive rooms of this place. Coincidently, all 10 family members tested positive to Covid 19 at the same time after being in this property on the third day of the stay.

Large house great for 2-3 families. Peaceful location close to the beach - it was perfect.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it to others. Thankyou.

Great views and good accommodation

We had some amazing sunsets from our 360 view from the top of the hill. The house has been recently renovated and has several indoor and outdoor living areas. Highly recommend.
