Fantastic home and location

We loved staying in this property, very homely and clean. Excellent location and very comfortable for our family of 4. My only suggestion for an improvement might be some fly screens :) Loved every minute of our stay and will definitely be back

How's the serenity?

The house felt like a home. It was spacious, well appointed and comfortable. Though just 2 friends having quiet time out, the house would also suit an active, outdoorsy family

Relaxed by the River

The property was great. It had everything we needed (and more). We enjoyed a paddle in the kayaks on the river just over the road, and it was easy to relax in the lovely house. Great facilities for cooking. Our 18 month old grandson enjoyed the toys and watching the rabbits. Overall, an idyllic holiday location.

The Moorings

Conveniently located, great views. Beautifully renovated. The inclusion of a clothes dryer and an extra blanket for every bed would be most useful. Loved the fireplace and the layout of the kitchen. Many activities provided eg: kayaks, bikes, cricket bats and board games.
