House was very comfortable, spa was great. Heat pumps and a fire, which was cosy. We wouldn’t connect to the internet, but the tv could. It was odd, but we just used 5G. Would be useful to have paper towels and spray n wipe supplied to help clean any kitchen spills etc. ##### Nicholas A.

The bed was super comfortable, great shower and lots of hot water. Very well equipped with everything. Loved the space and inside/outside balance. 'Hot' tub (because we dialled the temperature down,) was a great relaxer at the end of a day of exploring and walking. We would happily stay again. Few things needed attention but property agents responsive to contact. ##### Jo J. Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Miriam P. 11 Apr 2025 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### House great but terrible smell which got worse. Unfortunately there was a terrible smell when we entered the property which got worse over the weekend. Property manager alerted but no resolution or alternative offered. Unlikely a pre-inspection done as the smell would have been very obvious. ##### Miriam P. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicholas R. 29 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Christmas Great property location, gardens and verandahs to relax in and on. Kitchen utensils sadly lacking and the only downside. Needs replacement tea cups (cracked or chipped), plates, no coffee plunger, no bread knife, not enough tea towels (two!). Tin opener didn’t work (replaced with new). Pegs for washing line lacking (only 10 max) and not enough for family washing. Other than these everything else was wonderful. Thx Nik ##### Nicholas R.
