We appreciated the living area. Lots of seating inside and out which suited us well for eating together, playing games, and relaxing. The home theatre was also popular. There are good walking tracks in the area e.g. to the bird hide. The beds were comfortable.Kitchen facilities were excellent. Good views. Air-conditioners helped to cool us in the hot weather although evaporative increased humidity.

The house was great and could fit us comfortably. The house had everything you needed with lots to keep everyone entertained, from the adults to kids aged between 3-12yrs. Location was awesome too as it was right across from the park. Could defiantly see us staying there again and the owners a really lovely too.

Owners of this property were absolutely amazing they made contact with us before our stay and gave us all the details we needed to make our stay enjoyable.
The house was amazing big kitchen and living areas. The media room was a hit.
Very clean and tidy will definitely be going back to this lovely house.
Thank you Mike and Jill for hosting your holiday home out to us.

Six old high school mates having an annual catch up via a golf trip. The accommodation was outstanding. The location could not have been better with golf course and cafe a short walk away. Town close by for meals if needed.
We will be going back - nothing is more certain.

A very well positioned, stocked, and comfortable house for the extended family over Christmas week. Mike and Jill have set up a home away from home (and a home with media room, table tennis, music system, etc. at that!).
The weather was awful but we had lots of areas where we could come together for games, or go off for some quiet time.
Would recommend this house to anyone wanting a relaxing time away - wherever the weather.
