Awesome Family Holiday

Such a great property for families or friends. The house itself is big and spacious with multiple living spaces so plenty of room to spread out. The property is amazing with great views and awesome outdoor areas for entertaining. There was so much to explore and we had a great time walking around the property and looking at all the old farm equipment. The hosts were very friendly and super easy to deal with. My family had a great time!

Amazing Family and Friends retreat

We stayed at the property for a combined family break. It had something for everyone with the games area, wonderful outdoor space, large clean bedrooms, wonderful kitchen with all the necessary supplies and more and three sitting areas which gave everyone space to relax over the weekend. Hosts were organised with checkin and area information and were easy to contact for queries before and during our stay. We have already enquired to book again for the group next year!

Family Getaway

Dumbarton house was the best setup for our recent family weekend stay. Absolutely large enough to accommodate for our group of 8 . The home came with everything you needed to be comfortable with. The grounds are brilliant, full of things to explore. The awesome view gave you a feeling of so much serenity. We highly recommend Dumbarton for a getaway and definitely enquire about the amazing party shed up the top for functions it looks amazing. A country hide away one must explore.

Country cleaning getaway

The surrounds of the property were super fun and interesting! Great outdoor fire pit. The inside was a disaster zone - absolutely filthy, half eaten pie in the oven, dirty bathrooms, had to clean the fridge ourselves, furniture and blinds falling apart… The property was listed as allowing dogs but in reality the owner isn’t keen and tried to charge a fee for them to stay only outside, so maybe better to change it to a dog-free property?
Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023
Response from VrboOwner on 10 Aug, 2023
Thank you for your review Christine, however it is very harsh the house is certainly not a disaster zone or you would not have stayed there I have spoken to you in regards to the cleaning and you were supposed to send photos so I could verify it The cleaner had been that day and had forgotten to check the oven, but the house was clean otherwise There is no furniture falling apart and The blinds have a few vertical blades broken from the where guests children have damaged them but they still function. In regard to the dogs, you wanted to have three dogs stay inside We don’t allow this, and I made exceptions for you to be able to bring the three dogs inside so they could sleep in the laundry It is not our policy to have dogs on the carpets, bedrooms or furniture So we don’t allow them inside and we only take outside dogs I went out of my way to accommodate you to bring your three dogs, even though it is not our preference There were no charges for your 3 dogs where I could have charged a dog bond ! so a bit of appreciation for allowing your 3 dogs would have been nice rather than unnecessary criticism

Great place for the whole family to stay.

Great spacious areas like the kitchen, lounge and dining area. Bedrooms were all generous size. Slept the whole family. Some points for consideration if you are looking at this property. - It was dirty - we had to wash dishes and cutlery (caked on food dried on the cutlery and cooking utensils) when we arrived and the shower in the master bedroom had dirt on the walls. We knew it would be dusty as the host had warned us of the dust in the whole area, but we were disappointed this was how dirty other parts of the home were. While some parts of the home look like they have been well cared for, it looks like it could do with an update in some areas (hanging blinds broken with no pulls ) and couch outside was filthy dirty. Mattresses were old and sunken in (master was particularly bad) and the doona cover in one of the downstairs bedrooms looked grey from dirt and age.

Mountain retreat

The location was perfect for our event and the size of the venue was outstanding. Inside was clean given it is on a dry property however having to provide your own linen and the quality of pillows, towels and dunas was poor. I would have expected more for$700 a night. It’s a great building and the outside areas are expansive, the old decor and grotty outside lounges don’t help. Having fun things like the table tennis and pool table were great.
