The house is amazing, the only thing was we ran out of gas for hot water, the filters from the A/C's were filthy(probably something that should be done after each guest stay, leaves were absolutely everywhere and took a good hour to clean up, but overall, loved it and would definately book again, something else which would be handy is more house keys.

Location was excellent, very quiet with enough amenities and transport close by. Not as busy as other areas on the inland which we all liked. Plenty of activities at the house for all age groups to enjoy.
