Hi Snehal,
We are thrilled to hear that you had an enjoyable stay and we hope to have you come back and stay with us again.
We are sorry to hear about the BBQ. This should have been cleaned on your arrival. Please note that any issues please contact our 24 hour contact number and we will address any issues you have and have them rectified.
Thanks

House was good. Fit our needs perfectly for two families staying together. A bit more attention could be paid to the cleanliness of the property. It was fine inside but outside the bbq wasn’t all that clean, there was bird poo all over the deck and on kitchen window and broken toys and a juice box left in the yard.
Also the decor could be improved a little. If you want to appeal to more people, maybe a few less crosses!

Hi Carly,
Thank you for choosing us for your getaway. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and the location of this home. It's a great place to stay.
Thanks for mentioning the cleanliness of the outdoor area which we will discuss with our cleaners.
We hope to have you stay again in the near future.

Everything was perfect. The layout of the rooms was excellent. Everything you could possibly want was available. very nice big backyard which Cleo enjoyed very much .
Will recommend it to anyone looking for a clean holiday house .
The only points to mention but not disadvantage
1 - it is pricey a bit ( but we understand because Covid 19 and the limitation for a holiday houses. )
2 - Needs a bigger Rubbish bin and it should be empty when a new accommodation start ( when we start our stay we had to wait three days to be empty by the council.
Other than these it is perfect and we will use it again for sure.

Hi,
We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and look forward to having you stay at the home again in future.
We have discussed bins with the owner and he is going to upgrade the current bin situation shortly.
Also with peak and back to back bookings bins get overly full but please just let us know if this is the case next time as we have a contractor who can empty the bins straight away.
Very clean and well equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Will back for sure!
