Adults should closely supervise young children to ensure that they do not climb the horizontal wooden slats in the deck barrier.As the deck barrier is below 1 metre high and there is a retaining wall without a barrier, all guests should take care in these areas due to the risk of falls.Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen -
