The property was very suitable for accomodating 3 of us plus a small dog. It was roomy and a bit novel with 2 showers and 2 toilets in laundry area. Beds were comfy, though would have liked a top sheet so we could peel back the doona when we got a bit warm. Kitchen is well equipped and tv / lounge area very spacious. Everything was very clean. Excellent communication at all times with the host.

Great old place to stay. Very cosy with plenty of things to do.

Everything was as expected but on the description it says theres a hot tub we were very disappointed not having one there as it was one of the reasons we chose this property

Hi Alan. I’m happy to hear you enjoyed your stay but am a bit confused regarding the hot tub? We don’t have one at the property as you noted and can’t see that there is one mentioned anywhere in the property profile. Thanks, Sean
