Family stay for a wedding.

Host communication was non existent- on the day we were due to check in - the host never returned my calls . We had no communication about the check in procedure- no info regarding recycling etc . The house is old but also dirty. Carpet on the stairs is a tripping hazard. . Bathrooms are mouldy and carpets are very dusty . Strange that host lives on the property.

Disappointing value for money!

The property needs a complete overhaul - carpet is threadbare and in particular a major trip hazard on the stairs. All the glassware and crockery needed to be washed before use - possibly because the dishwasher needs fixing and does not wash effectively. Outside the gardens are in need of attention. Overall we were very disappointed as this was supposed to be a lovely family Christmas. Luckily the weather was fine and we could spend a good bit of the day outside as the interior is dark and dingy. Considering the cost of booking and rental this was extremely poor value. Unusual that the owner was staying at the property.

wonderful home that offers it all for a large group

We had a wonderful stay. The house offered everything that we required and there was a large family group. Tennis courts were an added bonus and location to town and every where else we wanted to go. Safe and secure car parking and a spa for those that wanted to use it. Tess was amazing to deal with and answered any questions we had before our arrival.

Location is good and the garden is magnificent.

Location is good and the garden is magnificent. We were relieved the weather was good and we could get outside as the lounge/dining area really wasn't big enough for our group (19 people). The house was fine but don't expect swanky. The little things like threadbare carpets (with duct tape in places) wouldn't have grated if we hadn't been paying so much: $2700 for three nights by the time we added all the extra people and cleaning. Loved the tennis court and spa. Thanks.
