a proper bach!

Lovely old bach and we enjoyed our stay thank-you. No dishwasher as is expected in a bach but we did have to wash our glasses and some of the cutlery and plates prior to use as they were greasy. Minor problem. Lovely sunny spot and great access to the beach, shop, playground, tennis and golf course.

So glad you had a lovely time Catherine. We pride ourselves on our having a clean Bach, as you will see from our reviews. Apologies that you had to clean the glasses first, I’m not sure why this happened, thank you for your feedback. I’ll message you. Kindest Katrina 😊

Nice wee spot

Great location In future the fact that there are no sheets and towels at the house should be noted on the website when looking at places to stay. Thank you for providing these for us though. The water shortage is an issue as the tank was extremely low when we arrived. Thank you

Response from VrboOwner on 11 Mar, 2024
Sorry you missed the information about bringing sheets, it is on the site and I also sent you information regarding bringing these. This is standard at Riversdale. We supplied these for you as you - you are welcome. At Riversdale Beach everyone is on tank water, and it has been a very dry summer however we would never rent our property if we didn’t have enough water for our guests. We ask all guests to go easy on water. Again this is standard. Unfortunately I can’t take your review down, as you have asked me, so I’m hoping potential guests can see that there is no problem with our water levels and that they should read all the information before booking. I’m always available for any questions. We have a high standard on communication, cleanliness, location and value. 😊

Teambuilding weekend

Fantastic spot! Everything we needed. The only blemish was the main bathroom shower, which was very weak, but in the overall scheme of things, that wasn't much of an issue. Absolutely loved the place and will hopefully return one day.
