The host was very responsive and relied I a timely manner! The house had so much space and was brilliant for 5 families and all the kids!Easy to use kitchen and awesome entertaining areas! Also such a great spot in Bright, very close to the Main Street and everything it has to offer
Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and we do hope to see you again next time you holiday in Bright. Kind regards, Bright Holidays Team
This was a really spacious house with 18 of us staying here. There is a lot of extra space in all of the bedrooms, and the two living areas are really big. Every room has heating that worked a treat, and we had the woodfire going as well (there is no guarantee that wood will be supplied, but if it is, you can use it).The bathrooms are modern and spacious too. There is plenty of room for parking multiple cars off road. The main streets of Bright are only a few minutes walk. I can't recommend this holiday rental highly enough. We loved it!

We celebrated my husbands birthday with a trip to the snow and needed accommodation to fit our six children plus five grandchildren. The White House was perfectly suited! Big enough to fit us all without being on top of each other. Lovely and clean. We're very happy with our choice of accommodation. I highly recommend this house for large families/groups.

We all love staying at this house but it's very disappointing that the stove/oven still hasn't been replaced - it doesn't work properly. The general maintenance of the house still needs a little work.

Ideal for large groups. We had 16 people, and everyone enjoyed their stay. The house offered plenty of beds, five bathrooms, a spacious kitchen, and a large living room. It was very clean and well-organized, with an abundance of dishes, including pots, baking trays, plates, glasses, and cutlery. There was a large flat barbecue grill and ample outdoor seating. Thank you!

We were pleasantly surprised on arrival regarding the overall property. The space available for socialising (in a variety of locations) and the abundance of crockery, glassware, utensils & the new stove easily catered for our family group of 20. Everything that Bright township has to offer is just a short walk around the corner, and it was a very comfortable & cosy experience for everybody.We'll be back :-)

Our family rented the White House and Retreat at Bright to celebrate our Mother’s 80th birthday. The house was in a fantastic location within easy walking distance into Bright. There were 15 of us, 12 adults and 3 kids and there was plenty of room for everyone. At no stage did we feel cramped even on the one day that it poured with rain and we were pretty much confined to the house. The separate retreat out the back and the five bathrooms made it extremely comfortable for all of us. I would highly recommend the White House and Retreat

White House is a wonderful, spacious house, with the Retreat in the back yard making it larger, with extra bedrooms, bathrooms and living area. The house has large bedrooms, plenty of bathrooms, large kitchen/dining area and living area, the high ceilings making it feel even larger. The back yard is a good size and the under cover bbq area is huge, giving plenty of areas for outdoor living, playing games, making it perfect for kids and adults alike. Great position, walking distance to shops, parks, etc. Perfect place for groups, family reunions, with the multiple areas, there is space for everyone.

The house looks stunning on photos but when we arrived there we could tell it was poorly renovated simply to mask the bad condition of the house. The granny flat at the back was leaking and dark. The bathroom has water seeping out of the floor outside the bath areas. We are totally unimpressed.
