Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The house was wonderful and certainly suited our needs. However on arrival fridge had been leaking, laundry door open, bbq was dirty, and fridge next to bbq dirty and mouldy and therefore not used during our stay. The 3 garbage bins were still pretty much full to the brim and not been put out for collection by previous guests.

family celebration

Great house , great location. Very clean and tidy. loved the sound proof playroom with lots of toys for our grand kids to play with. Would stay here again. However when listed with a heated pool that pool should be heated.I paid extra for the pool compared to other houses in the area. They did try and fix it over the weekend but i believe it should have been checked prior to us arriving Also had a chef come in and cook dinner for us but there wasn't enough wine glasses for us all. When renting with bedding for 12 people there should be 12 matching glassware
