We'll set up house, quiet location

The house is great, very comfortable and we'll laid out.Managing agent insisted that linen was not included and must be supplied or rented through 3rd party, however linen was supplied and hundreds of dollars wasted on rented linen.

Spacious and comfortable

All good inside Plenty of room Beds comfortable Kitchen and lounge large Good for kids Nice walk to the beach and not far to drive to Main Street Except there are no power points in bathrooms. And the stairs front abs crack require railings. This has been reported. Difficult to use when you gave poor mobility. But all thi gs considered we really enjoyed out stay.
