Amazing place to stay

We loved staying there and are actually thinking of doing it annually. Martin was easy and nice to deal with. Beds were comfy and the house was amazing. Martin lit the fire for us so the house was nice and warm for when we got there. We wanted to stay longer.

Gorgeous views and house

This house felt like home - from the comfy sheets, to the wonderfully big kitchen (except our house doesn’t have such splendid views). Our host couldn’t do enough for us, whilst the goats and chickens were very friendly. It was definitely a wonderfully relaxing stay.

Beautiful house in a great location. Martin was a very helpful and responsive host who made sure we had everything we needed for a great stay. Being able to feed the goats and well-stocked fire supplies were a bonus!

Absolutely stunning!

Martin was an absolutely wonderful host. Property was stunning and the location and views were breathtakingly beautiful. We had a party of 6 adults celebrating a birthday and were so happy we chose Martin's property. On arrival Martin had the fire lit and plenty of wood to keep us toasty. Highly recommend and can't wait to visit again.

Breathtaking views & peaceful surroundings

It was a lovely stay with beautiful views & peaceful days! Really enjoyed having the goats & chickens wandering the grounds & adding to the ambience. The huge loungeroom, spacious kitchen & dining made our stay very comfortable. The location was close to our family venue and took away all the stress of having to commute long distances. Thanks for your support Martin - good luck in the future.

Country Serenity

The property suited the needs of our party of 8. Kitchen was fully equipped with spices and oils available for our use. The views were spectacular - ocean and rolling hills. Martin was a great host. We all enjoyed our getaway.

Family getaway

Martin was a wonderful host and the location of the house was stunning. We were greeted by a friendly herd of goats and cheeky chickens ! The children loved collecting the morning eggs ! The view was amazing and the house cozy and warm . However , the house needed to be presented in a cleaner manner. The laundry was untidy and the bathrooms needed deep cleaning and updating as did the bedding . Overall though we had a lovely family weekend . Thank you Martin !

Thanks for your feedback... I'll hold my hands up to the laundry and I did apologise too you about that when I showed you around. I can assure you the bathrooms are fully cleaned/ bleached and scrubbed before every guest arrives...the discolouration of some of the grout is not mold it is from rain water and just builds up over time. I will re-grout those areas this week. Again all bed linen and towels are changed after every guest and all linen and towels are 8 months old or less. Prudence i would suggest when you review in future to take into consideration airbnb/ stayz rentals are homes not 5 star resorts with the price tag to go with it. Thanks Prudence and I'm happy you had a great family weekend Martin
