A beautiful house in an ideal location - within walking distance of the botanic gardens and a short drive to the city. The kids loved the pool, the outdoor space and all the TV's.The agent was quick to respond and very helpful throughout our stay.
Two senior couples having a catch up. Absolutely perfect for us. Good layout and space in the house. Large bedrooms and two separate bathrooms. Kitchen was great. So too the privacy and location. Cliff was a great host and communicated well with us. Lovely having the private pool. Would definitely recommend as a quality home with value for money. And would stay again. Thank you
