Wonderful stay with our elderly grandparents and our dog. The house is well appointed, the pool and entertainment area are excellent to relax in, and there are nearby walks. Thanks Tim, we all felt very welcome.

Needs a bit of TLC

Thank you for the well-equipped kitchen and lovely touch of fresh milk and cordial in the fridge. Front part of the house is renovated, but the flooring is not level. Future guests should be aware that the pool is not for private use, as it is between the property and the main house. There were children from the main house in the pool on the first two nights of our three night stay. As it is marketed as a “country retreat” we were under the impression that the “cottage” would be further away from the main house, rather than right next to it. The chicken coop is also close by, so we were woken each morning at 4.30am by several crowing roosters. While the house was clean, the surrounding grounds were not. Just to also note, there is no air conditioning. It is not listed but be aware on hot days the house gets very hot.
