House had lots of room for us all - 7 adults. Note air conditioner is only in upstairs bedrooms. Kayaks great for a paddle on the river - house had everything we needed. ##### Catherine S.

Nice location, close to amenities. The house lacked a few kitchen utensils such as potato peelers, large pot and tongs. Cleaning was poor, floors were not cleaned properly (underneath coaches and cupboards), kettle was black on inside (I had to clean before use) . On the whole it was a great holiday and house suited all of us. ##### Maria G.

Pity we were out all day as we would of loved to use the gorgeous patio area and backyard more. 4 double rooms and 1 with twin beds meant we could all have our own room. Spot on ##### Chantelle C.

Worth returning. ##### ROBYN Y. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2021 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jason W. 26 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, location Disliked: Check-in, listing accuracy #### Nice house, poor managers This house is managed by Holidays Margaret River, who in addition to full payment want an additional large bond over a month in advance, they were very quick to demand money and dismally slow to provide information. I had to chase for basic details of the house such as the address. Very poor company that tainted an otherwise pleasant house ##### Jason W.

Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Eelna a. 26 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Bathroom!!! house is beautiful but it is a big inconvenience to have only 2 bathrooms for 10 people. One bathroom has access only from the bedroom so it can not be used by others. So in fact only a toilet can be used all the time! ##### Eelna a. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pauline R. 9 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Girls Weekend Beautiful home had everything we needed, beds very comfortable, in a quite area of town which is about 30 minute walk away ##### Pauline R.

The house was lovely and homey and I would recommend to anyone wanting a beautiful holiday. ##### kirsten J. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### maggie b. 29 Sept 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Superb base to explore the Margaret River area The house was everything 5 middle aged ladies needed as a base for touring the area! It was a little cold at night but plenty of fleecy blankets to wrap around us & put on our beds. Quiet neighbourhood which felt safe & community-minded. Excellent local trails to walk and cycle & walkable to the shops. Such a pity the high street is still under construction but looking forward to returning when it’s complete. Definitely recommend the house & Stayz & would use again. ##### maggie b. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Kristie A. 15 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tidy and a good location The house was clean, in a great location and comfortable, the outdoor setting is great as we had 10 adults staying and it was good size. The house is nicely decorated with a good range of cooking utensils, would recommend staying here. Things to note; aircon is only upstairs so was a bit hot in the down stairs bedrooms and living area, the inside dinning table only seats 8 so was a bit tricky having dinner inside with 10 people, and a few more tea towels would be good for short stays as we didn’t do a load of washing. ##### Kristie A.
