This property was very comfortable and welcoming, with clean rooms, a well equipped kitchen and an efficient and friendly host. It was accurately advertised as "a bit rough around the edges, but a roomy, pet-friendly base" and for us the positives well outweighed the negatives. We humans and our little dog enjoyed our stay very much.

Mutts, MTBs & Mud Pools is as described, a perfect spot for a large group. The house is a bit rough around the edges, and there are a few cobwebs around, but it had plenty of space for our group of 12, and we felt very at home while staying there. The check in with simple and straightforward, and the beds were all super comfortable. As we were a group of parents and teens, we would have loved to see more cooking equipment, especially more variety of pots/pans. The BBQ was excellent and a great asset. The heatpump worked really well, and thank goodness for heaters in the room as it was chilly over night. Over all, for the price, this was the perfect spot for us. Thank you.

Family stay

We had a great stay with our 3 children and 2 children. We found the property very comfortable and the dogs loved having a secure large yard to play in. There were a few minor things that we noticed were needing attention/ repair- eg loose sink fittings But we notified the property manager so hopefully these will be fixed.

Tired but roomy

Definitely not a 4 star! The inside needs a good paint and clean. A new toilet would help, as the current one does not function properly. The lounge/dining area is a great space for large groups.

Extremely poor condition property

Extremely disappointment with the condition of the property, holes in walls, dirty décor, property was extremely run down. We had booked as a treat to spend time with family that were over from UK. The condition of the property was embarrassing and no-on wanted to stay upon arrival. I would not recommend the property to anyone and am disappointed that Bookabach offer such accomodation.

Fantastic Family Space

Home was comfortable, roomy and perfect for us (a family of 7). Great functioning kitchen. Also, a massive sleepout with its own bathroom & kitchenette. (Which we didn't use). It was close to town (not really walking distance), in a good area. Only negative was no lighting in the back yard.....when you arrive in the dark, looking for a lockbox that you don't really know where it is; is a little challenging when you've got tired children and no lights. All in all a wonderful place to stay.

Great Location

The house was tidy, mainly clean as could be, as is an old house. Very comfortable, beds, looked newish, great bath, didn't need to use shower. Plenty of beds for big group/family, plus sleep out, we had no use for. Everything supplied that would need, though electric blankets would have been good, as was cold. Lovely garden surrounds and being dog friendly was what we wanted.
