The kitchen was well stocked - more glasses than I’ve ever seen before- a couple of larger saucepans would have been good when cooking for our family group of 9. The pool would be great if staying in summer. The rumpus room has a table tennis table and there are plenty of board games.The house is in a quiet street and walking distance to the beach, restaurants, cafes and a small supermarket.A few minor maintenance issues and a LOT of steps from the ground floor to the main living area- definitely not for the frail or small children. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Fairmont-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h522363.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Airlie-Beach.h2802992.Hotel-Information) > > [Bannisters Port Stephens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Soldiers-Point-Hotels-Bannisters-Port-Stephens.h27355893.Hotel-Information) > > [Exmouth Escape Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exmouth-Hotels-Exmouth-Escape-Resort.h4032424.Hotel-Information) > > [Glamping at Truffle Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gretna-Hotels-Truffle-Lodge.h22239606.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [Torquay Foreshore Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Torquay-Foreshore-Caravan-Park.h6001296.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Resort Torquay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Wyndham-Resort-Torquay.h1927122.Hotel-Information) > > [Coral Sea Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Coral-Sea-Marina-Resort.h1047180.Hotel-Information) > > [Heron Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heron-Island-Hotels-Heron-Island-Resort.h1636471.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Ningaloo Reef Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Coral-Bay-Hotels-Ningaloo-Reef-Resort.h4257765.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monkey-Mia-Hotels-RAC-Monkey-Mia-Dolphin-Resort.h2650828.Hotel-Information) > > [The Carrington Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Carrington-Hotel.h474003.Hotel-Information) > > [Kangaroo Island Wilderness Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Karatta-Hotels-Kangaroo-Island-Wilderness-Retreat.h2041654.Hotel-Information) > > [By The Sea Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-By-The-Sea-Port-Douglas.h3024406.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritage Trail Lodge Margaret River](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margaret-River-Hotels-Heritage-Trail-Lodge-Margaret-River.h9624427.Hotel-Information) > > [Rochester Riverside Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rochester-Hotels-Rochester-Riverside-Caravan-Park.h65341713.Hotel-Information) > > [Lilianfels Resort & Spa - Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Lilianfels-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h872.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hunter Valley Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Mercure-Resort-Hunter-Valley-Gardens.h1877968.Hotel-Information) > > [Mandalay Luxury Beachfront Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mandalay-Luxury-Beachfront-Apartments.h2648804.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lost Camel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yulara-Hotels-The-Lost-Camel.h4805954.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozone Hotel Kangaroo Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kingscote-Hotels-Aurora-Ozone-Hotel.h2737459.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn London Heathrow Terminal 2 and 3](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-London-Heathrow-Terminal-2-And-3.h33088275.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h8065.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Luton (LTN) to Paris (CDG)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ltn/cdg/london-to-paris) > > [Flights from Birmingham (BHX) to Brussels (BRU)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhx/bru/birmingham-to-brussels) ### Activities > [Things to do in Windsor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Windsor.d5479.Travel-Guide-Activities)
