Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Bancroft House was amazing! A beautiful home with lovely lake views and the best equipped holiday accommodation I have ever stayed in. Multiple outdoor areas to sit and enjoy the lovely grounds and the visiting bird life. An easy stroll to shops and eateries.The 4th bedroom with 2 single beds is small and runs off another bedroom.Front steps are steep so use lift for cases etc and the driveway is also steep which some may find challenging to walk up and down however it is worth it for the views.
