The property was just perfect we loved our stay there with 9 family members. The only thing it would have been nice to have the owner's phone number so we could speak to her. The top bathroom the shower head basically fell off the first time they turned the tap on. We left a note for the owner so they knew about it.

We enjoyed staying at the property for 5 nights. The hosts, Russell and Lorraine were extremely helpful and cordial. The property was well described in the Stayz site, clean and accurately described. The only thing to note that there is no garage and driveway access, although parking was no issue. There was an issue with the heating of the pool, but Russell assisted with getting it rectified. The other issue was that the spa in the master was not working, and requires attention. Thanks Russell and Lorraine.
