10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2026
The arrival instructions were very clear and easy to understand.There was an ample supply of tea and coffee available and multiple coffee options (plunger, packaged cappuccino and instant etc.)We had all the utensils we needed in the kitchen and the pantry had all the essentials like baking paper, kitchen towels and glad-wrap.WIFI was easy to set up and use with clear information supplied in the pack. We didn’t need to use the air conditioning, but noted that clear instructions were provided on how to use that (along with all other appliances).There was ample tourist information available inside the property as well.We did get to meet our host, Wendy, on the day of our departure and she was a lovely lady.The off-street parking is very handy and the location is close to amenities.There was quite a collection of books, DVDs and games, in the event you needed to stay in and keep yourself amused. The TV also supported Chromecast.There were even a couple of pairs of reading glasses available, should the need arise!We had an excellent stay and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to others.
