Winter Rose - gorgeous gardens sleeps 5

Beautiful presentation , gardens are amazing .

A few maintenance issues - the blind on the window behind the bed in the annex didn’t work . The milk frother in the coffee machine doesn’t heat . The freezer compartment leaks water into fridge and floods all shelves - we left a note when we stayed 12 months ago about the same things .

The house was roomy but felt cozy.

Reception was poor and I had to leave the property to make some calls for assistance.

All the wooden interiors The garden The bird life

The setting was magical - it is the most wonderful opportunity to step back in time. A very unique home and location. Very special

Very poor communication with the host provider - I had to wait an hour to be let into my accomodation. With no code having been sent. The internet service in that area is terrible and I was not able to ring or message. I had to wait for my son to arrive so I could use his phone to ring the company to let me in. With no instruction or welcome book provided. It took much frustrating time to work out how to turn off the "Mood" music and work the TV - I at last tracked down in the modem in the pantry and with patience pecked the details into my phone so I could gain WiFi access however the reception was non exisistent Respectfully the owner of the property was very pleasant, however I did not appreciate her just popping in while my son and I were spending precious family time chatting on the back verandah. I have very recently had a home invasion and found myself uncomfortably tiggered by this uninvited intrusion. It made me very uncomfortable to stay there on my own, I actually left a night earlier. Particularly as I had no phone service for emergency needs. And EIGHT days after having $500 taken for any "damages", that money has still not been returned to my account.
